Iowa County Conservation continuously improves conservation, education and recreation for Iowa County, Iowa. With properties running along the Iowa River to a timber oasis off the beaten track, Iowa County Conservation offers a large and amazing variety. Some of the properties are less inhabited than others, so you can get what you are looking for. Would you like to go camping with your friends and hit the beach? How about hike alone or with your dog? You can do it all at our many properties.   

The largest recreational area is Lake Iowa Park. This park includes a 83 acre lake, campground, cabins, nature center, bird blind and trails. Since 1962, visitors have enjoyed fishing, camping, picnicking, an equestrian trail, hiking and swimming. Winter sports such as cross-country skiing, ice fishing and winter camping are also available. An 18 hole Disc Golf course winds around Lake Iowa and an annual tournament is held in Spring. Naturalist programs are offered throughout the year.

Properties such as Gunderson and Big Bend are hidden gems that one should definitely check out. They're great places to go on a hike and enjoy nature peacefully. Back country camping is available at Gunderson Wildlife Area.
