Iowa’s Driftless Area gets a lot of attention from nature lovers, but the Loess Hills are just as magnificent and often overlooked. If you’re looking for a beautiful getaway with family, friends, or your partner, book a stay at the Loess Hills Cabins and Hideaway near Preparation Canyon State Park.

There are seven different cottages and cabins at this campground, and each one offers a cozy stay in the hills.
Loess Hills Hideaway
The Homestead Cabin is perfect for families. This large, two-bedroom cabin sleeps six! You'll find a modern interior, full kitchen, private bathroom with shower, and even a washer and dryer. Book the Homestead for a weekend of "glamping" that everyone will enjoy. Dinner cooked on the charcoal grill and enjoyed on the outdoor picnic table is the perfect way to wrap up a night in nature.
The bright and cheerful Cottage Cabin is also great for a family getaway, and it can accommodate up to seven guests.
Loess Hills Hideaway
You'll find a queen bed, a double, a single and a hide-a-bed that folds out to a double. Like the Homestead Cabin, the Cottage features a full kitchen and bathroom, as well as a washer/dryer. The large yard with a grill and picnic table is perfect for outdoor games.
For a smaller group, the newly renovated Lodge may be the perfect escape. This rustic cabin is perfect for up to four adventurers.
Loess Hills Hideaway
The Lodge is a remote and isolated cabin - you'll feel truly on your own. It's a great spot for hunters to relax, and the taxidermy on the wall will remind you that you're truly in the wilderness. The brand new kitchen and full bathroom provide luxuries that are typically hard to find out in the woods.
For more rustic accommodations, rent out Cabin #1! It was renovated a few years ago and you'll feel right at home here.
Loess Hills Hideaway
Four people can make this their home, sleeping on the queen bed and standard bunk bed. Get cozy in the cabin living room with a comfortable recliner in front of the TV. Indoor dining is possible thanks to the kitchenette. You can also enjoy a fire pit, charcoal grill, and outdoor seating. This rustic getaway does not have indoor plumbing.

Tell me more about the Loess Hills of Iowa.

While Iowa often gets dismissed as a "fly-over" state, ours is a state rich with natural beauty, and nowhere is this truer than the Loess Hills. The Loess Hills are a large formation of wind-deposited loess soil in the westernmost parts of Iowa and Missouri, as well as the easternmost parts of Nebraska and Kansas. Put simply? These hills are essentially accumulations of dust. But the Loess Hills are stunningly beautiful, and one of the most scenic places in the midwest. In Iowa, you can sit and admire this natural wonder at the Loess Hills Scenic Overlook. Rising up to 200 feet above the Iowa plains, the best views of the hills are from above. At the eponymous overlook, you'll experience the full splendor of this geological wonder -- no hiking necessary!

What are some other Loess Hills cabins I can rent?

While we adore Loess Hills Hideaway and Campground, if you're looking for more of a luxurious cottage rental in the area, you'll be in heaven at this charming cabin available on VRBO. This property features four bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus high-end appliances and furnishings that will make you feel right at home. Board games, a fire pit, picnic table, and a huge yard make this rental ideal for a family getaway in Iowa.
