We love Coon Creek!! The buddy sites are awesome, especially number 17. But please don't book it because we love it. Just kidding. The restrooms and showers definitely need some work and cleaning, but they have done some fixing up this year. Sites are somewhat private but could be spaced out more. Most sites have good access to the water, however you may have a steep hill. Just check them out before you book if possible. They have a really nice CG store with licenses, fish stuff, bait, food, ice, toys, souvenirs, etc. but at a pretty hefty price. So don't forget anything...Overall we love Coon Creek, but if you can't get a site there Opossum Creek is pretty good too!! We camped here in a Tent.

Don't bother with this area. The route to the CG is narrow, winding through cornfield back to the middle of nowhere. The sites are short. The site I reserved was displayed as a buddy site, for two trailers, 40 feet long. The actual site was 1 driveway, 30 feet long, and room for a buddy tent, MAYBE a popup. The roads are paved, but narrow. The shower house was moldy, and extremely dated, with many years of caulk over caulk, cracked fixtures, and no hot water. There are many other nicer places to spend your hard earned dollars in Illinois. The Corps of Engineers needs to review this CG, and give it an Extreme Makeover. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is Corps of Engineers recreation area. Only part of the campground was open when we were here in early April. Only has a few full hook up sites. Sites were large with table and fire ring. Due to bad weather we did not see much of the rest of the campground, but what we did was clean and spacious. Camped in a 40 foot motor home. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice big place with a nice beach and close to marinas, etc. Some spots are on water and very nice. At times it gets crowded. We camp here every year and will return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice campground on Lake Shelbyville, IL. Paved streets, gravel pads and sites with picnic table and fire ring. Most sites are 30amp electric only, a few 50amp full hook-up sites are available. This park is a Corps of Engineers ru park. It well maintained, clean and neat. Lots of shade and lots of space between camp sites. There are close swimming beach sites, they are the first taken so reserve 14 days early. Adjacent to Lithia Springs Marina, a full service, well kept marina with 400 slips. They offer houseboat, pontoon boat, fishing boat and party barge rentals. The marina is privately owned and operated. The area is neat and well kept. 14 day mandated maximum stay. Great place to bring the kids and dad's fishing boat. For more information about the park call (217)774-3951 We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is really nice. Some sites with Electricity, but private ones mostly do not have it. Restrooms could use some work and cleaning. Nice water access with some steep hills. Overall pretty good!!! We camped here in a Tent.
