SIOUX CITY, Iowa (KTIV) -

Your next "staycation" could be at Bacon Creek Park in Sioux City. The city council is thinking about approving the funding needed to build a campground there.

They discussed the facility Tuesday in their annual budget talks.

Cost is about $1 million capital improvement dollars, spread out amongst fiscal years 2014 through 2016.

The site would accommodate both tents and RV's. City officials say it's a chance to increase Sioux City's appeal.

"The idea is to have some camping opportunities for people that come into Sioux City. We want to be a destination," said Parks Maintenance Field Supervisor Kelly Bach.

The funding is pending the city council's approval in February.
