Rating: 8 9 10 8 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Nice park with a friendly and helpful staff. Site 20 was 65' long and level. We were only there one night and did not disconnect. It's a FHU with easy reach to utilities. - N8MD
A very nice, smaller park, located about a mile off of the freeway. The main road into the park is paved, and the others are gravel. The sites have a gravel pad and are very large. The people running the park are very nice and helpful. We would definitely stay here again. - JohnCof266
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for D & W Lake Camping and RV Park »This is a quiet, beautiful campground. A perfect place for a restful getaway. There is a small charming lake and sites have some personal space - people aren't right on top of each other. Gentleman who greeted us was warm and friendly. Probably not much for children to do although there is some playground equipment. But for a quiet and peaceful stay, it was perfect! - RV Sailor

Rating: 7 8 7 7 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We stayed here for one night while traveling through the area. The campground is nice and great for an overnight stay. Only real complaint was an electrical issue. When we plugged in our power management system (surge protector) at site 43, we got an "ground fault" error. We checked it at the next site over (site 44), which was empty, and no problems. I went to report the problem and ask if we could move and was told that surge protectors don't really work here - not the response that I was expecting. The surge protector did work, there was just an error at that site. Ultimately, we did move over to the other site, which was actually a bit more level so it all worked out in the end. There is quite a bit of road noise when you're outside, but not noticeable once we went to bed. Other than the issue with the electric, this was a great campground. - wanderfilledlife
We were traveling and needed an overnight near I74 and this fit the requirements. It was quiet, seemed safe, and was neatly maintained. It was a hot evening, and although the campground looked almost full, we saw only a couple of people outside. It was probably $10 more than the price should have been, but it was convenient for us and we would stop there again. A good rating to us means that it is adequate for our needs for that particular time and no stand out negatives. - busyteach
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Tincup RV Park »This is an older park probably once surrounded by farm but now suburbs are quickly encroaching. Made a reservation day ahead and was told they only had one site left for Sat. night. Office staff was pleasant. Park has a mix of some shady sites and sunny sites scattered around and behind the rustic office. Looks like a mix of transient and seaasonals but the park is kept clean and mowed. The spot we were given was one of ten sites in front, an open area facing the road and in front of the office. All 10 were pull through with FHU. We were site #1 so had a full view of the grassy but now closed golf driving range. Rest rooms were older style last remodeled in the 60's but very clean. Nice playground for the children but no other frills. Our Verizon service was good. No picnic table or fire pit at our site, they were too close for that but since we were just a one night stay, not needed. One picnic table and fire pit was just across the road. All in all, a good place for a quiet night off the road. - Trainspotter

Rating: 7 4 5 8 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We spent 1 night here after a great Champagne Snow snowfall, and our dogs loved frolicking in the snow. The area was quiet and peaceful. Since there was a snowfall, I wasn't certain if we were sitting on gravel or concrete. All in all, it was decent. A lake is across the road; my guess is it's a nice setting in summer and fall. - Sally Kely
Something happened since I was here last. I think there is a new manager. It appears that most sites are now filled with RVs that are seasonal. This left very few sites for a rig to just show up (this is a no reservations campground). The rate for 7 days was $100 plus electric which is very reasonable. Hookups were a stretch on the site that I was on but worked fine. Satellite and antenna were good and Verizon cell and Internet were strong. I come here to visit family. I may check out another campground close by the next time I'm in the area. - RVW Traveler
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Champaign Sportsmans RV Park »This is a membership Sportsmans Club. Most sites are grass. The full hookup sites are small on gravel right in the middle of the entrance. Very few sites have their own fire pit. Two types of sites, full hookup or electric with community water spigots located within a 100' or so of each site. The oddest thing is that almost every site has the power post on the passenger side if the rig. Sites are relatively level but a lot are not. For some reason, you can hear the highway noise quite a bit. It is about two miles away. Small playground but nothing much more for the kids. If you are visiting the area, it will suffice. $18 is for electric only. - Wydglide

Rating: 6 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Five Bridges RV Park »Park is about five miles north of I74. It is surrounded by corn and soy bean fields and is very quiet (except for the drivers on IL49 out front but they are few and far between). There is a train track south of I74 with an occasional passing train that you can hear because it is so very quiet in the park. The Five Bridges refers to the pond between the owners' home and the sites; there are five bridges across it. There are plenty of birds in the trees and shrubs around the pond and we saw a chipmunk a couple of times and heard a bullfrog. Friendly, chatty host drove us to our site and aligned us to it. There was 50A electric and water but no sewer. There was a dump site on the way out. The road gate for the park was locked at dusk but the gate by the owners' house was always open. Had a relaxing, pleasant time. Stayed three nights in a 40' motorhome while I went to my class reunion in Danville. - r.boylan

Rating: 9 6 8 10 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Nice secluded spot with spacious sites. I had trouble getting to it with my GPS unit. The manager admitted that their web site had wrong address and was going to change it from 711 W Perimeter. Some sites are in need of new gravel and it may be necessary to jump a curb to get to the sites but I suspect will not be a problem for most units. Almost all sites will get some type of shade during the day. - bpatter1
As usual, we were able to get a pull through, FHU, level, gravel site that was satellite friendly. Others have described the unusual "pull through" situation. There is no cable TV. Some sites may not be satellite friendly, so request a friendly site you want to use your satellite TV. The Wi-Fi was fine for our minimal (e-mail and web surfing) needs. The laundry and bathrooms were clean. There is no pool and I saw no recycling. - Jerry S
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Prairie Pines Campground »Interesting layout. Obviously an old mobile home park likely part of the defunct air force base. Large area but sites are located in clusters so are near to each other but lots of room behind and between clusters. Also you approach the sites by driving over a (low) curb and grass. A concrete sidewalk goes to the site from a parking area off the street. So you park close but not right at the rig (but the rules indicated if a one night stay you could stay hooked up). Otherwise pretty typical RV park, scattered trees some by sites, some open sites, all hookups worked no problems, laundry bathhouse well-kept. Paved roads, the sites themselves are graveled, mostly level and could be soft in spots. Very good Verizon, didn't use the wifi. - fulltimer121

Rating: 8 10 8 9 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We were only there overnight and didn't see a lot of the park, but were impressed with what we did see. Lots of woods, nice level lots with a lot of space between them. Each had a deck where the picnic table is located. Grounds were nicely kept. Only issue we had is we got there after 8:00 and there was no one to tell us anything - camp host had sign he was off duty, see ranger. Drove back to the entrance where the park office is located and no one was there and there was nothing posted to tell us what to do. So we picked a spot as we have been in other state parks that permit it. The next morning on our way to the office on our way out, we flagged down the ranger and paid our fee. Seems the office closes at 4:00 and we did what we were supposed to do. You can make reservations online. - Travlin Mill3rs
Showed up July 3 without reservations; park was only about 1/4 full and we had our pick of spots for the night even though there were no spots available after that due to the July 4th weekend. Parked in a great spot near the lake. Fireflies put on a great light show! - ME for Maine

Rating: 4 4 1 2 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Still barely OK for an overnight stop. Trees are overgrown, sewer connections are hard to locate, needs gravel and just looks bad. Honor system drop box for the fees at a small office/building at edge of grounds. Someone started to redo the sewer system and sewer hookups were in the middle of the drive/parking pathways. Working water Hookups hard to locate and several electrical boxes were without power. Most did not work. We would have gone further down the road, but we needed to get off the road for a rest. A rest area would have been better. - BennieH
Barely OK for an overnight stop. Used to be an OK place but has been let go. Trees are overgrown, sewer connections are hard to locate, needs gravel in the pot holes and just looks sad. Honor system drop box for the fees. Looks like someone started to redo the sewer system and the place needs a real going over. Hookups hard to locate. Some were in the middle of the drive/parking pathways. - BennieH

Rating: 8 9 10 7 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We were traveling on I-74 and this was excellent overnight stay. We made reservation well in advance knowing that we would stay on a Saturday night. The park was full. Getting to the park was a little tricky as the GPS took us differently that the posted State Park signs but the road in was no problem. Excellent check-in with staff. Our pull through site was level, so we did not disconnect the 5th wheel from the truck. Interior roads are all blacktop and in good condition. There is plenty of space between sites. Power was good, OTA TV good, Verizon good, T-Mobile good. No water or sewer hookup. We would definitely come back here again. - Land Wanderer
Kickapoo is a lovely park and a nice campground. The rating would be a "9" if they had water at the site and a "10" if they had full hook-ups. They do have a very convenient double dump station and several water fill sites. Roads are mostly good and trees are well trimmed. The staff we met were very nice and very helpful. Most sites are shady, but there are a few open sites if you prefer. The only caution I would give you is that the main entrance takes you over a 10-ton limit bridge and most motorcoaches weight more than that! There is a back way into the park. Although it is longer, it is a better road. Call ahead and ask for directions. - Lee and Jacque
