Rating: 8 5 7 10 10 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Close to Interstate for a one night stop over. Front sites are long enough that you do not have to disconnect. We were in site 1 and had no neighbor beside us, so had plenty of room. A lot of nice green pasture and quiet neighborhood surrounding. No picnic table at each site, but one with a fire ring is in the grassy area directly behind the parking and plenty of room to set up a chair and have a nice peaceful area to overlook the little driving range. We would stay again. - Gypsy Duo
Stayed one night. Check in was fine w nice staff. We stayed in the front area which is basically 10 pull thru sites in a field. Very, very close. If we had put out our chairs, they would have been 2 feet from the neighbors sewer port. WIFI didn't work as we were about 50 yards from their office. No cable TV either which we knew ahead of time, but OTA was limited. No fire ring or picnic table. Not a good value overall. - DaveBatez

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: 10 8 7 9 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Very clean and nice campground. Right off I70. Convenient for an overnight stay. Lovely lake and owners are super nice! - Karen Fredrickson
Nice campground, we would have liked to stayed longer. Check in was easy and Camp Hosts were very pleasant. Our site was a pull-through and mostly level with plenty of room for truck and trailer. Water pressure was good without a regulator and electric was good during our stay. I would most definitely stay here again when in area. - JBu
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for D & W Lake Camping and RV Park »This was a stop-over in our 26' motorhome without a tow vehicle. Pros: Neat & tidy grounds, pleasant hosts, pet area, quiet, small man made lake to walk by, beautiful view of the sky, grass all around, convenient for overnight stay, fairly level. Cons: Our site was in an open field, men's bathroom was not clean per my husband, women's okay, traffic sound from freeway, no trees near us. We will likely return but will ask for different site: 1, 3 or 5 would be to our liking. - Debra Zillmer

Rating: 8 10 7 10 6 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Some GPS units may send you to the wrong location; but ours was accurate. Call to get directions if you feel it's necessary. The interesting thing about this campground was that you had to drive through the grass to be able to "pull-through" your campground; which is exactly what they want you to do. They even have you follow their golf-cart to get to your site doing this. Full hookups at all sites; everything worked as it should. The sites were a little close for such a big area. - Wandering With Us
Quick overnight on the way to SoCal. Nice quiet park with lots of mature trees for shade. Surrounded by fields. Some might say a little run-down, but fine for me. Level sites. Helpful on-site manager. I wish all the higher-priced parks had internet as good as Prairie Pines'! Not super-fast but solid; it didn't fade to nothing in the evening. - Doncooke
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Prairie Pines Campground »We decided to stop here rather than one of the "better", private, more expensive RV parks farther south on I-57 to save a few bucks. We've been her before and knew what to expect. We had a roomy, fairly level, FHU, pull through site. Since we knew there is no cable TV, we were happily surprised to be able to get a satellite friendly site in this park that has lots of tall trees. The Wi-Fi was fine for our minimal (e-mail and web surfing) needs. The bathrooms were clean and the laundry appeared adequate for this park. I saw no other amenities or recycling in the park. - Jerry S

Rating: 7 3 9 7 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We stayed here for a few days in order to visit colleges in the area. Folks come here mostly to boat and jet-ski. We fished and my boys swam a bit but did find that the water was too warm to swim in especially since the temperatures were in the high 90s with massive humidity. As others have noted, the lake is used to cool the adjacent Exelon Power station. In the early AM they dump the cooling water into the lake and it's steaming hot when released (no swimming etc is allowed in this area obviously). Our site was quite large and backed up to the woods at the edge of the lake. Lots of tree frogs, birds and bunnies. From talking with other campers the ticks were out in force. None of us humans got any and I treat our dog regularly so he didn't have any that stuck but he did get a few bites. Also, poison ivy was everywhere (the entire back of our campsite) so we didn't venture too much into the wooded areas. Pretty quiet campground, filled up over the weekend but was really empty during the week. Beautiful night skies! The Milky Way and numerous planets were visible on the clear nights. - EllenT
This campground charges 150% of their normal fee for holiday weekends. That in and of it's self is pretty bad but other campgrounds do similar. This one tops it off by killing power on groups of sites thus limiting the site availability to those that need power. What's more is that inflated fee only gets you the site, if you want to swim on the beach with your family of 5 for the weekend, it will cost you another $10 per day. No, it's not included. For a state run park that our tax money pays for this seems ridiculous. It makes it look as though the park in only interested in money. With a failing power grid that's outdated and a pay to play mentality, we will not be back here. Very little tree cover and sites are nearly on top of each other. Mowing is done but they mow as little as possible leaving tall grass and pests within feet of the camper and the sites. Find a different park unless you like paying high KOA type fees and spacing with none of the benefits. - firemaninil
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Clinton Lake State Recreation Area »This park is a bit off the beaten path but was worth the drive. There are standard "pit" type bathrooms close to the campsites that are the standard for Illinois, but the entrance to the loops had showers and standard toilets that were kept clean. Host was friendly and the place was quiet at night. Not a lot of foliage this early in the season, but our site had a nice view of the lake from the back of the campsite. Definitely going to stay here again. - Bogie71

Rating: 4 9 5 6 6 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: They need to mow the grass, it's too tall. No soap in the container in the bathroom and fire ring full of ashes to the top. - Moparchic
Greeted by camp host. Pick your own site. Great rate. Lots of trees. Short walk to lake (although lake edge was kind of junky. People, throw away your trash!). Electric only. Had a spigot within campground to fill water tank. Level site. We enjoyed our 1 night there and would love to go there again. Roads and turns were a little tight for bigger rigs. - RvCandyP
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Moraine View State Park »Mostly shady sites with mature trees. Lake is very pretty, direct access close to F section. F1 is the only pull through, but one pin in 30 amp power receptacle was arcing. There was a sign that said -max 24 -amps even though it was a 30 amp. We moved to C8 one of the 5 50 amp sites- it had a sign - max 40 amps. (C5,6,7,8,9 are all 50 amp). campground was pretty empty midweek after Labor Day. We had 5 clear channels with antenna:, cbs, PBS.. Stayed for one night, would return. Very nice camp hosts. - Jeannehanes

Rating: 10 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This park has a beautiful caricature about it, with its big Oak and Hickory trees and how they go together about 30 or 40 feet in the air. This park has the grounds mowed every week. There is a set of swings and playground equipment in the adjoining picnic area and the hiking trails are mowed as well so you don't have to climb through waist high grass. Restrooms are clean and tho there are only 2 showers the showers have plenty of water and pressure so you don't have to hit the button every 15 seconds. The host is well versed in the surrounding area knowledge. They have no fishing or boating but they have tons of peace & quiet unless its harvest time in which you might hear a combine in the distance. Perfect place to relax. The interstate (I72) is over 2 and a half miles away. 36 campsites w/ 8 no power and 27 w/30 amp only. All sites are back in. Nearest convenient store is in Argenta at Caseys for ice and pop and gas. - illplainsman
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Friends Creek »This is a great little sleepy campground. Perfect if you have to work in Decatur or surrounding area while camping as its very close. There isn't much to do at this campground other than just enjoy having nothing to do but that's OK sometimes. The one thing I didn't like is the caretakers dig out the fire rings and that leaves a hole to collect water and starting a fire in a puddle of water is a bit difficult. Someone should really tell them to stop that, yes it looks nice but is very impractical for using it for what it was designed for. Other than that great park. - firemaninil
