My family likes to hike. At Lands End, there are endless picture moment opportunities. Everywhere you look, there are beauty of nature that will for sure to inspire you. It truly is breathtaking. From the cliff house all the way close to Golden Gate Bridge is about 4-5 mile walk, but it doesnt feel like workout at all. Its just a moment to appreciate nature and enjoy family bonding time.

Very beautiful. Love nature walks and take pictures of nature. Really enjoy getting out for quiet time.

If you want isolation and quiet, this is your campground. We got a few tv stations but no T-Mobile cell service. Check your directions carefully before going there as it can be difficult to find even if using GPS. The roadway going to the campsite is narrow, curvy and steep in one area. We have a 27 travel trailer and often found ourselves having to straddle the center line while driving precariously around blind corners. The camping area has only 8 spots for RVs which are fairly close together and depending on how good you are at backing can be difficult to back into. I wouldnt think of taking a fifth-wheel into this campground. Tons of shade.

Great family hiking, fishing, kayaking! We loved the cabins we stayed in. Peaceful getaway for sure.

Absolutely beautiful location. Even the pit toilets were clean, the shower house has hot water. Staff is very friendly.Two reasons it didnt get 5 stars: the camp sites for tents are *very* small, and theres no brush between sites, so no privacy. We had reserved one site and with someone else right beside us, we wouldnt have had room for our tent - barely had room for our car. The ranger (?) was incredibly kind and helpful, and offered to ask our neighbors to rearrange/move, but let us change our site to one slightly more secluded.Second reason, and the reason we wont go back despite the incredible beauty of the area, is that we had no cell service even with Verizon. Concerned about safety of unable to make a phone call or see tornado warnings etc.If we lived closer, it would be a regular jaunt for day trips! There were multiple hiking trails, picnic areas, in one of the most beautiful parks Ive ever seen - clean and well maintained.

This is a beautiful park perfect for a one day hike. We did the Buffalo Trail and it took us to a nice view point looking out towards the river.

This review is specific to RV camping only. We spent one night at Stone State Park. First, the roads to the camping area are tight. If you have a large rig, dont even consider this park. The camp site was small but nice except that trash filled the fire ring so it was unusable. Before covid19 I would have just grabbed a trash bag and cleaned it out, but not any longer. Camp sites are electric only, no water or sewer (I am probably spoiled by the state parks in my area where electric and water are both usually available even on most tent only sites). The shower in the ladies room was very dirty, be sure to wear shower shoes! My husband shared that the mens room was even worse. We also could not find a dump station on the map nor did we ever see one in the park, thus the need to use the bath house and the disappointment with the condition it was in. If we had planned a longer stay, this would have been a major issue. The park is very pretty, and probably great for day use and hiking. I cannot recommend it for RV camping. Too many negatives.

Very good place. Its fun to walk around here. very fresh air and quiet place. It is wonderful to hear the various birds singing. Unfortunately, the trees have no leaves. It would have been nice to see all the trees with green leaves in it.

Beautiful state park. Beautiful view of Nebraska, Iowa and South Dakota. Worth a drive to see if the weather is cooperative.

A nice place to collect your thoughts. Good for hiking.

This is a great place to get out and stretch your legs. There are plenty of foot paths to take that make you think you maybe went to far but you never do. Great scenery bring your boots or walking shoes you are going to want to walk after you park

Stone park is so beautiful. A great place to nature bathe.

Love this gem of a park. Plenty tree cover and numerous hiking trails that will make you forget where you at. Will come back for sure!

Gorgeous views and easy trails. But there are some really steep ones so be careful

I so love this little spot of heaven in Iowa

Beautiful park. Wish I lived in Sioux City so that I could go there more often! Beautiful place

TL;DR - camping is cheap and good for a night. Avoid the latrine and you’ll be golden.This review is specific to the camping at Stone State Park. First, for the $11/night fee this place can’t be beat! Buuuut that $11 comes at a cost (of course, right?). The sites are sandwiched together, so if privacy is your thing, snag #19 (more secluded, though a trail cuts through its edges), or go someplace else. Another con, the latrine avoid it at all costs and go to the facilities up the hill. Let’s just say I hope it’s just because Covid, but the thing has visibly not been serviced this season. Also the facilities were meh - apparently the men’s is worse than the women’s. But, running water! Flushing toilets! Showers! That’s a win.On the park side, it’s gorgeous! Dense woods provide great coverage for camping. Watch out for those raccoons at night! A fellow camper lamented over a couple of raccoons ransacking their campsite for forgotten morsels in their tent.The trails are short, but beautiful, steep, and a gateway into a world of chirping birds, buzzing insects, and if you’re lucky, darting deer.

Although I did get lost 3 times (dont trust the trail signs, trust your map first), the views were very much worth it. I did 9 miles and seeing 3 states from the park was truly unique.

A very a beautiful place to visit and relaxed if you loved nature !

Love this park,riding horses on a hot day perfect.so much shade.

Pretty scenery, but dont go if its rained recently if you want to walk the trails

Plenty of parking and hiking trails clearly marked. Tons of picnic areas. Saw a family with an inflatable jumpy thing for kids while hosting a Birthday party.

I enjoyed the start of winter scenery its nice to go here park and enjoy the sounds of nature the wind rustling the leaves the cool breeze coming off the hillside providing fresh air at an instant

Beautiful endless trails for long or short hikes.. or just enjoying a sunset

The park has great views up on the ridges, lots of fun trails, and nice pavilions and tables for picnics.

Plenty of trails to explore, beautiful overlooks, places for picnics, perfect for enjoying the outdoors. Even for a short drive through, Stone Park is a relaxing and beautiful space to visit. Fall is my particular favorite time of year here, the foliage is spectacular.

NC local, camped here for a night while on a road trip around the states. Great decision. Hiked up to the highest place for a view and to watch the sunset, which was beautiful. Very impressed with the camping facilities, like the bathroom and showers. Would definitely choose to camp here again, and probably stay longer, if I ever go on another big trip out west.

No signal for TV or phones her showers are cold. DNR are very nice though

Beautiful little area, many short trails to choose from!

Lots and lots of great trails. Nice little camping area and the staff is super nice.

Volksmarch invite. Great trail!

I LOVE stone park. Theres so much to do and so much to see that it never gets old looks beautiful all year round

Peaceful, calm a place to clear my mind when things get hard.

Love this park! Great views, good for bird watching, and good for exercise.

Fun place to explore, hang out, and chill.

Absolutely beautiful and the park is well maintained

So beautiful and peaceful here.

When were in a friendly section of the camping site. Everyone was helpful to us newbies :) I havent been camping in a long time so it was an interesting adjustment for a couple of days. Not to fond of pit toilets so we went into the nicer section and used their toilets haha. Anyway we had fun.

Absolutely lobe this place! Has fantastic trails for Mountain biking for SD standards. Lots of jumps, decent downhill sections and plenty of technique works. Would be 5 star if all trails were open for Bikes too

An amazing place to unwind. Exploring takes you to hidden gems in the park. Something for everyone, from trails to hike to areas to cook out. One of the best ways to spend time with family.

Awesome place beautiful views. Long hike options. Public restrooms and cool historic markers.

This is a small park that is fairly unknown. They keep it in great shape and there is enough variation on the trails to make it worth spending the night there to easily cover everything.

I love coming here! My children love coming here! We are always hiking or throwing a party or just going for a little fishing trip its absolutely gorgeous and a great place to get away. When you need a break from the city life. Im happy that you can get one bar or two bars on your phone in case of emergencies now but I do tell you this I never have to take out my phone nor do my children asked to play on their electronics when we are here.

I absolutely love renting the lodge. For birthday parties. For baby showers. Its the perfect location because its peaceful and spacious. Indoor kitchen and bathroom, fireplace as well. I recommend it to all my friends ️

Spent alot of time there with my better half!

Absolutely no phone signal. Verizon.

Gorgeous and well maintained park.

This is my most favorite place to go and relax. Its beautiful outlooks and trails are the best in Sioux City. My 4 yr old loves to go there and walk the trails and even likes to just slowly drive through. There is camping there too. Our dog really enjoys the trails as well. Wonderful place to get back to nature. Please go if u havent been. You wont be disappointed

Beautiful wooded area with trails

Great place to practice the mountain bike. Beautiful loop with up and downs... You can easily burn your legs... Great training session... The are many options trails... With the app MTB project you can find easily the loop though...

Great views. Very tight roads, drive slow

Its beautiful here. The wedding we attended at the Stone Lodge was gorgeous and cozy. The kitchen was small but well equipped for the gathering!

Biggest park in Sioux City! Tons of trails and yet still difficult to get lost. Good for birthday parties and even weddings if your feeling dangerous. Lots of trees give tons of shade, so not too bad even on hot days. You can mountain bike as well if youre skilled. Beautiful viewpoints with lots of scenery.

Such a beautiful Park. Tons of trails to walk around, a playground with Park equipment, lots of benches and picnic tables, fire pits, great bathrooms, and wonderful campsites. Theres even a shelter you can rent for parties and events. And Turtle Lake is a great place to visit. It actually has Turtles and geese. Overall just a wonderful Park

Was very beautiful and peaceful

It was great getting out and stretching my legs

Ill always run the trails in this park.. if only they were more clean.

Trails are awesome campground was a little tight but we had a good time

Such a beautiful place to visit and drive through. Seems to always be clean and litter free the times Ive been there.

Quiet place to relax.

Was 6 years ago, not much to remember. My brother, his wife, 2 younger children and his stepson with his girlfriend and my wife and I with our adult son along with his girlfriend and his son, we all decided to camp at Stone State Park while we held our family reunion in Riverside during the day over the weekend we were there.There were some issues, but we seem to be able to resolve the issues reasonably. Understandably, I had couple that was under 21 and restless and his dad was working to reel those two in plus my my own couple who are older and know better were acting up, so were trying to get them settled down a little, if they got kicked out they got no where to go since they came into the park with us.In the end everything worked out, my brother, his wife and 2 younger children decided to stay an extra day and his older son and girlfriend left the park before everyone else.Enjoy Stone State Park and Loess Hills. I grew up across the river in South Dakota and I dont live in this area anymore, but I do try to come back often, but not as often as I would like to.

Love the park. Its better than the gym.

Love this place. Spent a lot of my childhood here

Very nice park.

One of my favorite parks in the Sioux City area. Tons of trails to walk on. Turtle Lake is one of the best hidden treasures in northwest Iowa. Ive spent years wandering this park and still havent found everything it offers.

The trails are real nice to run on. Alot of up and down hill trails so you can mix up your jogging routes and keep it interesting

With so much rain we dodged mosquitos until we let them get the park back to themselves. The trails are pretty overgrown. I would like to visit in the winter when seeing the scenery is priority one instead of swatting insects.

Awesome view and trails

We tent camped here one night. This is a very unique and cool campground in a huge park with lots of trails. The park is very well planned and pretty. Lots of animals and nature to enjoy. The campsites are all marked well and include nice burn pits for cooking and a picnic table. This is one of my favorite campsites. The only reason for 4 out of 5 stars is that the bathroom facilities were in need of some serious attention. They are updated facilities but EXTREMELY dirty. The bathroom was filled with hundreds of millipedes and bugs and the shower floors looked really bad. The price was only $11 to camp; almost half as much as most camping weve come across. Would camp here again and again and again if they decided to clean the bathrooms more.

Beautiful park with great hiking trails and a very nice campground. I love the campground here because its very cheap for a tent spot and there are some nice areas. Its small but has nice bathrooms that are well kept. I really love this park!

Best place to hike in Sioux City.

Incredible park with amazing views

Stone Park is always great! The trails, campgrounds and playgrounds are maintained very well. The short walk to Turtle Lake is worth it!

Havent been here in 40 years, impressive changes, the staff is great, Emily is very informative and a great person to speak with. I will definitely be back here again!!!

There web site said my 38 foot fifth wheel would fit in site ten. Upon arrival I stopped by the ranger station, tooted the horn and she ( a park ranger) waved me on. Down the hill and around the corner, the road getting skinny two-lane barley held my rig. As I looked up the hill the left side of the road is washed out. Site ten was a tent site. I backed up and turn around, down a hill and around a corner. I stopped by the ranger station ask for my money back . Lol . I had to fill out a form and send it to park headquarters. Finally got my money back after a 5 week wait.

Its a really great park to have hikes, runs, and other outdoor activities.

Only place I walk besides Dorothy. Love them both!

Pretty sweet place.....I camped there the day before the Memorial Day weekend kicked off so I timed it pretty good because all the reservable sites were already booked for the weekend.......nice hot shower and check out is 4PM.....sweet....And its only 11 bucks a night for a tent site.

One of our favorite places to rent a cabin and relax at.

Great place for hiking and getting close to nature right here, in Sioux City!

Wonderful state park. Great place to do birding and hiking.

Nice medium effort hikes. Trails are OK but have seen better days.

Great place to take your fur friend to get them tuckered out for the day!

Really good tracks to work those muscles and build endurance.

Green and serene

Beautiful place to watch the sunset!

I love this park. We had many Pagan rituals here because of how well it preserves nature, while accommodating easy access and parking. Also the pavilions are reservable for very reasonable prices. It has great views great trails and great spaces. It is an amazing park.

Stone State Park is a very nice place.

Beautiful place to go hiking and get out with my dogs.

I like better maintained trails...Ill probably go back this summer and try it again.

Would be great if the trails were better maintained. Pants only.

Lovely park. Lots of great scenery

Great walkable trails through deep forest

Simply beautiful. All sorts of camping available, camper, RV, tent and cabin rental.

Cool place to have lunch in the summer

Happy place! Park area us awesome. Trails are beautiful and you can never be in a bad mood when here

The Best

Always been a local favorite spot been visiting since I was a kid great for camping and the scenic views

Quite relaxing. Great for light hiking

I reserved and paid for RV space 6. It was barely long enough to get my RV in. It certainly was not wide enough. The sites are also first come first served on the honor system. Four other RVs in nearby sites and campers in tents and vehicles. I think I was the only one who paid. Two young guys in a tent next to me FLYING HIGH all night. Felt very unsafe. Stayed only one of two nights reserved. I would not recommend it for over night use or leaving a vehicle unattended.
