Lake Ahquabi State Park

Lake Ahquabi is located in Warren county near Indianola. You can camp, hike, snow-mobile, cross country ski, and much more!! There is a 115-acre man-made lake that you can swim, boat, and fish in. "Ahquabi" is a Sauk and Fox word meaning "resting place", that is fitting to the park. The park was recommended for a state park site by "Ding" Darling, famous Iowan cartoonist and conservationalist.

These are some interesting links on Lake Ahquabi:
