Wapsipinicon State Park, dedicated in 1923, was one of Iowa's first state parks. It lies just south of Anamosa on the Wapsipinicon River. The River has long been famous for its channel and flathead catfish, spring crappies, bullheads and smallmouth bass, especially below the dam near the park entrance.
The shaded campground has 30 campsites (15 with electrical hookups), modern rest rooms and showers.
There is also a nine hole golf course within the park boundaries, maintained by the Wapsipinicon Country Club.
