Glenwood Lake Park RV Campground

       After four months of living in this campground, we've had to say goodbye as winter approaches. This campground was open from April-November 1st, and we had the pleasure of living there from June 21st- October 31st. 
      The town of Glenwood has a population of 5,269, and they are all the nicest people I've met. As you enter the little town you are greeted with beautiful town signs and the undeniable love the town folk have for their local school team, the Rams. It seems as if you went back in time with the old school architecture and small town set up. They had to offer a few restaurants, a very small grocery store, a couple chiropractic offices, doctor offices, a couple banks, a nail salon, and a brewery, to our surprise. 
    The park itself had a very nice paved path around the "lake", walking trails behind the historic building, an amphitheater, a farmers market that happened every Wednesday, and the RV campground with only 12 spots. This secluded place we found was the most perfect place to start our full time RV journey. 
      We were extremely spoiled with this place to say the least. From the campground to town was a short mile, so it was easy to run errands. They offered many events right at the park including a great Fourth of July BBQ and blues festival which we had a great time at. I felt very safe at the park with the pups all day and loved being able to walk them around the lake. I'm sad to leave that campground, but so far we are already loving the new place. If you are ever driving through Iowa, I absolutely recommend a stop in Glenwood. It won't disappoint:)
