Camping at Linder Point Campground near Iowa City

Public campground · Iowa City · 14 campsites

A forested campground near fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Recreation at Linder Point is varied because it sits inside the broader Coralville Lake project: campers have quick access to lake water activities (boating, swimming and water skiing from local ramps), shoreline and river fishing for largemouth and smallmouth bass, crappie, walleye and catfish, and multiple trails within the Dam Complex for hiking and mountain biking. Within walking or a short drive are the Squire Point, Woodpecker, Tailwater Riverwalk and the barrier-free Veterans Trail, plus the nine-hole Turkey Creek Disc Golf Course.

How far ahead to book Linder Point Campground

For September weekends, book about 130 days ahead. Three in four September Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 45 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (3,426 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
