Two of the largest caves let you walk straight from one entrance to another, while one of the smaller ones requires squeezing through two tight openings before you can barely stand inside--definitely an adventure! The trails are not wheelchair accessible. The full hike took us about three hours at a steady pace. I'd recommend bringing a flashlight for exploring, though it's not absolutely necessary. Between the unique caves and the gorgeous trails, this park is a gem. I'll definitely be returning to Maquoketa Caves in the future!

Fun and interesting state park with plenty of caves to see...but wear good shoes for climbing and…read morewalking along steep paths and clothing that will probably get dirty (layers are best as the caves can get cold). Many of the caves have streams running through which are very cool but can also cause slips and falls... I'd also be careful of some of the off-the-beaten-track paths as one led us to some pretty steep cliffs. And again don't underestimate the slipperiness of even the regular paths... The gift shop is just a few tables set up outside of a shelter-type open building (I had to get my usual magnets) in the parking lot, and the visitors center is a separate building off of the main road (Caves Road) and 98. The visitors center has a few interesting displays and we watched a film about the history of the park, Well worth a visit, and especially recommend seeing the Dance Hall Caves....

We were just travelling through looking for a place to stay for the night. We found this place at…read more8 pm. They had an after hours checking drop box, but they didn't give us other information like the bathroom code. The phone number provided just went to voicemail and it was for reservations only. The next morning a lady came to our site asking if we needed the code for the restroom. We said we got it from someone else. She got upset with us that we did that. I said it would be nice if there was a means to get that information outside of office hours. She snapped back saying most people call during office hours. I said that we didn't even know this place existed until after there office was closed. We're just passing through. She said once again that most people call during office hours. I reiterated that we just found out about this place after their office was closed. For the prices they are charging it would be nice to have access to all amenities upon arrival even if it is outside of office hours. She just turned her back and stomped away. Very poor customer experience. The campground was decent. Could have more stars on this review but not being able to get at what you're paying for and the rude interaction made this a place that we'll skip in the future.

For a quick visit the Punchbowl Trail is a good short hike (a couple of miles to and back?) but there are some steep stairs if you end up on certain paths. To avoid the stairs park at the lower level and hike on the (mostly) level path to and back... The Boundary Trail is also awesome and usually very peaceful, but it takes quite a bit longer and there will be a few steep hills... The Pine Creek Grist Mill is a picturesque historic site in the park, with its own spacious parking lot, a cool bridge across the creek, and an old schoolhouse and cabin...the mill is open limited hours during part of the year...it was interesting to see the mill machinery and learn about the historic flour-making processes (but it's very hot in the building during the summer months)... Nice shelters and campsites, too, some with fireplaces and fire pits...there's probably not a spot in the park that is not scenic!

Great hiking and don't forget to see the Grist Mill!! Also, the school house with grade pictures!read more

I was especially impressed with their mens room bath and shower! My wife and I were on the road for 28 days and THIS was the cleanest and largest shower I had seen after traveling 6600 miles. We discovered that KOA's have three levels: Journey, Holiday, & Resort. My wife and I enjoyed this Journey as it is the closest to "real camping" with just enough to relax without feeling like you're in some sort of "Disney Resort". I would highly recommend this campground and will stay here again if I ever get the chance!!

Park Terrace Campground was a terrific place for me to camp for the evening. Ideally for anyone…read morecamping...it doesn't get much better than this! I found Park Terrace Campground through my trusty phone app called Campendium. I arrived here on a whim in late afternoon over the summer. I headed straight towards the office and bought myself a campsite for the evening for only $16. That's a real good bargain especially because this Park Terrace Campground offered showers...and usually for those with a tent and ready to camp out...most sites don't have amenities like this unless you pay much more (I'd say in the range of $40 - $50 for the night) staying at RV sites. Also while I was in the office...they sold snacks and any extras you may need to make your stay as efficient as possible. Although I had a late lunch....they were selling fresh popcorn for $1 a bag. Sure...I love popcorn...why not get a bag to munch on. What a pleasant surprise this was. After reserving and paying for my campsite, they told me to just head over the tent campsite area and choose a spot. It was that simple. If I had to describe the surroundings here at Park Terrace...it actually much resembled an RV Site as the place was packed with campers and RV's. Almost every spot had a camper occupying it. And then in the back of the campground was the area for tents. What I very much appreciated about spending the night here was that the tent area had soft grass all around it. So...for those who know. That's very important. Sleeping in your tent on flat grass makes for much more of a comfortable sleep. Where as compared to most places....and especially in remote locations...I was sleeping on hard, dirt ground. The grass was a refreshing welcome! And there were picnic tables along every site, for those interested...you were allowed to barbecue with an electric grill or using charcoal. In the front of Park Terrace was a playground for the kids. The whole campsite was filled with families enjoying the outdoors. Once I set up my tent...I headed straight for the showers. Also, during this summer of 2020 during the pandemic...I was just grateful the showers were accessible. The bathrooms were clean and they had mirrors as well. For me it was a luxury being here with my tent. I was driving cross country around the USA and most of the campgrounds I frequented had no running water with only porter potties. Here at Park Terrace Campground of course there was cell phone reception. So in total...the accommodations were excellent for me. Had I not been on the go...or had there been something meaningful to do in the area...I certainly would have stayed here a 2nd night. Btw, this campground is located in Davenport, Iowa...right on the border with Illinois along Interstate 280. All restaurants, grocery stores or anything you may need were just a short drive away. Finally, the whole setting here at Park Terrace Campground was so relaxing and quiet. I had a wonderful night's sleep. For me this was a 5 star campground. I highly recommend staying here for anyone who's traveling and may need a simple, yet very accommodative place to stay.

We didn't have neighbors next to us, which made it very relaxing and quiet. This has been the most expensive campground I have stayed at. Not sure that is worth that amount of money. My site was full of geese poop (that I thought was dog poop at first). I spent a good time cleaning poop before laying my rugs and setting up. The fire pit had garbage on it. For what I paid, I expected someone inspected the site before assigning it to us. Weight the amenities against the price when making your decision. I originally booked just because I wanted to stay in a waterfront site, but I don't think I will return.
