Rock Creek State Park

Rock Creek State Park

Rock Creek State Park is a state park in Iowa. It is located in Jasper County, near Kellogg, IA.

The 602-acre park was dedicated in 1952 and includes numerous boat launches and docks, picnic grounds, camping grounds, and trails for horseback riding and hiking. In the winter, the lake may freeze over, and the park is a popular spot for cross-country skiing and snowmobiling.

Grinnell is located seven miles to the east. The park's proximity to the town as well as a connecting bike path make the park a popular destination for students at Grinnell College.
