This campground is out in the boondocks. There is no sewer hook-up, but they do have a dump station. The bathrooms and showers were adequate. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This has become our "go to" campground. It is perfect for a 2 or 3 day weekend trip. The current owners are continually improving this park. In fact, it seems that something is new or updated on nearly every visit. While I'd prefer a sewer hook up, it has not been a problem to go without one for a short trip. The seasonal sites are very well kept under the watchful eye of the management. Some of the sites on "club row" face each other, so there is potential for seeing more of your neighbor than you may want. While there is not a lot of things for kids to do on site a large water park is close by. Tubing and fishing is a short walk away on the Kiswakke River. For sure we will be back to enjoy the peace and quiet of Blackhawk Valley We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
A very nice clean, well-maintained park. The kids had a great time in the playground. There's a little pond that has frogs as well as the Kishwaukee river for fishing. The only downsides were, the sites are a little closer together than average and the water has leaves in it (which isn't a big deal if your water intake has a screen on it. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Large, mostly level sites under huge shade trees. Very attentive and helpful staff (owners) who appear to keep an eye on everything. Lots of space in the middle of the grounds to play, walk pets etc. Will definitely visit again. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Stayed one night but could have stayed a week. Huge shade trees over spacious sites. Lots of room for kids to play. On a river but all the sites on the river were seasonal. This park is a well kept secret. We camped here in a camper.
