One of the best parks that I have been too! That much is for certain! In this part of Iowa people…read moreare very proud of their yards and parks and therefore they are kept up in a stupendous fashion. The exact opposite from where I come from in Wyoming where people just don't seem to care or the soil is too poor to have a good yard. This park has several playgrounds on of which is a huge jungle gym made out of wood, a great swimming pool, walking/jogging paths, sports fields and so on. You could really spend a whole day here. Apparently lots of people do because everyone from the county seems to at least know about this park or goes there when it is nice out. Definitely a stop worth making if you are in this neck of the woods and need to take a break.

The Gilbertson park has so many great offerings! Check out the museum to see animals (alive and…read morenot alive), and learn so much more about the nature of the area. The Petting zoo is always a hit with people of all ages - the animals are always fun to visit in the summer days. Cute kittens and frisky goats add to the fun. There is a wide variety of trails to hike through the woods and get some exercise and enjoy the nature. The Gilbertson campground offers access to the Turkey River for canoeing or kayaking. And, now the new bike path is an easy access from town - it's just over a mile to the petting zoo. Great for a run, bike or walk!

We went here camping in the Horse Camping portion (Albany Equestrian Campground). The camp sight…read morewas very spacious. I was pleasantly surprised by how well maintained the camp sight was. The grass portion was well groomed, the roadways were in good repair and all campers were well behaved. The only thing different I could have hoped for was cooler temperatures which obviously isn't the park's responsibility. As most who come here to this camp sight already have their own camper/trailer, the Latrobe was basic. If you want to take a shower, you just get In your car and go over to the regular camp sight. We were able to do a bit of tubing on the Volga River just 2-3 minutes walk from our campsight. The River was a bit low due to lack of recent rains but again, that is not the park's responsibility. There is a wine tasting place just 200 yards outside the main entrance which is a nice place to visit. Fayette, Iowa is just 10 minutes south by car with a very well stocked Dollar General story (kind of like a mini-Target.
