Rating: 4 6 5 3 4 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This park has a lot of potential, but it needs better care. We stayed here for two days to explore the nearby Lincoln sites. The men's bathrooms were filthy. We felt sorry for the tent campers. They had to use them. We did not get a sewer connection, so we had to use the showers. The showers were clean, but the ventilation had much to be desired. People living in the park should also clean up their sites. Some had trash bags outside for two days. The camp hosts were friendly and helpful, and the park is convenient to shopping, restaurants and sightseeing. The roads could also use some TLC. - On road less traveled
Grass, very unlevel, couldn't even get slides out on fronts. - Never Lost
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Riverside Campground »The man who checked us in was very friendly. The campground was grassy and treed with gravel parking spots that were not very level. The sites were close together and most of the other RVs were very old and in bad shape. The campground was bordered with a run-down mobile home park which was not separated by a fence. A train track runs close to the park and a train can be heard several times per day. The roads were full of potholes. But it was an okay park for the price considering we had sewer at our site in addition to water and electricity. - mountainfan

Rating: 6 1 7 7 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We ended up really liking this place. It's in the fairgrounds, on the north end of Springfield, about 3 miles straight north of the historic downtown. It's basically a bunch of power poles and hose bibs sticking out of the ground on a grassy hillside and around the edges of a couple of asphalt parking lots. 30 amp had voltage problems. 20 amp was fine. We could have also plugged into the next site, but didn't need to. A few sites have sewer, but the sewer is way back at the back of the sites, awkwardly located, and we decided to just use the dump station. Most people crowd into a single asphalt parking lot. It's flatter, and there are full hookups. Most of the rest of the campground is wildly unlevel, but if there's not an event going on, it's mostly empty, and you can do what you need to to get level. We found a flat spot off by ourselves under a big oak tree on a grassy hillside. It was quiet, private, and we had an awesome tree for company. When you arrive and pay, the manager unlocks your power pole. We arrived on Monday, which is the manager's day off, so we called the Security phone number, and the security guy unlocked the pole. Being right in town and underneath a cell tower, cell service was fine. There are lots of lights all over the place. If you're light sensitive, some parts of the park are brighter than others. Pay attention to light pole placement. The bathrooms are horrid. Stay away. We rode our bikes to the historic sites in town. About 3 miles, pancake flat. - AnnP
Traveling in a 38 foot coach we stayed 4 nights in a site for big rigs in early March. Almost the whole park was empty except for a dozen long term tenets. If you plan to visit Springfield during this time of year there is no other place open. The older restrooms and shower building were large and heated (it was chilly out), but they had not been cleaned in some time. Same cigarettes butts, and clumps of hair were still there after four days. Check out how the water comes out before committing to a stall too. It is a typical, modern fairground campground: a parking lot with level sites, good water, electricity, no shade, no sewer. They do have a dump station. They also have many sites on the grass but many of thoses were not level. We also called the office telephone number five times, left messages, but no callback. Also for only having dozen tenets they should have had better wifi! No RV Park without usable wifi gets more than one star from us. The technology is here, there is nothing to stop any Park from investing in doing wifi properly. For some users, such as ourselves, wifi is the single most important feature in any RV Park. - JDC10
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Illinois State Fair Campgrounds »We camped in "B" campground, which was a level asphalt parking lot with electric & water hookups. Other lots had sewer available, others were gravel, and there were some grass campsites. The area was clean and well-maintained. We were between fairground events, so we had the lot nearly to ourselves; site spacing would be tight otherwise. There was plenty of green space to walk my dogs. There was some train noise at night; but for only $20, this campground is a great value. We would stay here again. - FranM

View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Mr. Lincoln's Campground »An adequate park for those wanting to explore Lincoln land, mostly given over to seasonal pipeline workers. The guy next to us had his car hood up and his gas tank removed all day. The park needs an overall cleanup/raking. Bath house was old and dark, but clean and functional. CATV excellent. - ebdavis

Rating: 7 9 8 7 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This park is hard to get to. And I don't mean a little hard. The small short narrow creek bridge to get to it (the only way in our out) is a test of your grit to cross it. From my place in the driver's seat the first time it was not fun. But the park is fine. WiFi and Cell coverage is not good. This is a very quiet park. It is in a very nice residential area, but on a very large piece of property so you will think you are in the woods. - RFCN2
When we had electrical problems with the power pedestal they quickly offered us another site and all was good. Plenty of space for the dogs to play and run! The owner was there and involved and very nice. It is off the beaten path, but well marked with distinctive road signs that make it easy to get to! And, it is convenient to downtown and sights. We would definitely stay here again! - ournextstop

Rating: 10 9 7 7 6 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Would have been $15 if we had been from Illinois! Electric only, but water and dump available. Beautiful park area. - Merikay MacKenna
Very clean showers although dated. Very level sites with good electric. Some in our group had difficulty with the 30 amp. Needed to use 50 with a 30 adapter.
Quiet and restful. Nice shelter for meetings/meals. Decent dump station.
New Salem Village was very interesting although there was only one busy volunteer who gave a good background on the village. Paved drives that made a nice thing for walkers. - Oldbug76View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Lincoln's New Salem State Historic Site-Campground »The park is dated, could definitely use some updates - but then Illinois is broke so doubt they are putting $$ into their parks. We had issues with the 30 amp electrical. Illinois doesn't refund at state parks, so we were without power for two nights. The host was very helpful on day 3 and suggested plugging into a 50 amp with a 30 amp adapter - that worked! Something with the 30 amp ground. (Wonder if this is common at this park as two other RVs had the same problem.) - Med

Rating: 9 8 10 9 10 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Although we only stayed 1 night while traveling, we found this campground, very clean, highly organized and well-managed. The 'owners' were on-site and available for assistance. The bathrooms were very clean with a lot of attention to detail, i.e., hooks for clothing, sink tops for supplies, well light, etc. Sites were level, with easy reach for hook-ups. Gravel was well distributed managing wet conditions quite well. The only minor draw-back was a bit of traffic noise from route 55. - Terrytnt
The park is very well kept. The sites are a good size and fairly level. The interior roads are gravel with no potholes. The sites are also gravel. Easy access from I-55 with no issues for big rigs. The only issue we had was with the owners. They were very friendly when we checked in but after that not so much. We requested that the fire ring on the site to our left be either moved or removed, we were told no. This fire ring was only one foot from our RV and could have caused damage to our RV if it had been used. Wifi worked fine for the first week, then there were issues with the one closest to us. Owners refused to look into the issue. - BnK_RVLife
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Double J Campground and RV Park »What a gem of a park! Privately owned since the 70's but very modern with immaculate bathrooms and showers. Very nice owners who escort you to your site. Mature shade trees, almost all sites were pull-thrus and all very level (pretty much a given considering the location)! Some sewer connections were pretty far forward making it a stretch but you could pull forward and park tow in back and still reach the sewer. Other sites had the sewer hookup towards the back of the site. It had a nicely equipped playground, basketball court, goofy golf, nice pool! Great camp store w/RV supplies and food, free book exchange and movies to rent. It is right on historic Rt. 66, (which is the access road here for I-55). There is some interstate noise but at night the cicadas and crickets pleasantly drowned that out! Peaceful country setting in the middle of central IL cornfields but only 15 minutes to downtown Springfield and all the great Lincoln sites. We got a Good Sam discount but were charged for an extra adult as we had grandma with us! ($5/ night). At least children (up to 3 under 18) are free. We enjoyed our 3 night stay here and would definitely return! - Jeni

Showers were closed,told us to use others over a mile away. Planned a 4 day stop here,but after they offered us a 120.00 fine for our cat being outside we left,yes I know there are leash rules. We have been full time for 2 years and have never had a problem with our cat till now. No Office have to find the host. - Donny and Donna
The Hickory campground was a great place to stay, very clean and well kept, and a beautiful setting right on the lake. The sites were level (all back-in), spacious and most were shaded from the afternoon sun. The staff was very friendly and helpful .... we mistakenly arrived at the another campground, and they led us over to Hickory. BTW, the other has no lake view, no flush plumbing, and no showers, so be careful which one you stay at. - Snowbirds34

Sangchris Lake holds numerous fishing tournaments and is usually full, as the sites are excellent for boating / fishing enthusiasts. Typical Illinois park, the sites having no water, sewer or Wi-Fi; however Verizon cell reception was adequate. - Moundstation

Rating: 7 8 8 8 6 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This is a small campground in the middle of corn country. We needed a spot with full hookups for one nite and this met our needs. Right on the side of the road but traffic was minimal. Good Verizon service. Good TV reception over the antenna. Owner very friendly. - smitty12

View more reviews and a full list of amenities for McMillen's Camp-A-While »Rate reflects a 15% Good Sam discount. This is a very small RV park nestled in the corn fields. It is located on a side road with little traffic, so noise is not a real problem, even though you are parked close to the road. There are only a few sites that can take a big rig. We had one of the back-in sites in the dead-end part of the park, and could only maneuver in as the sites across from us were empty, otherwise, there was not enough swing room to back in. The owner is very friendly and helpful. AT&T and Verizon signals were good. The water is nice and soft and has good pressure. Over the air TV reception pulls in the networks out of Springfield and that is about it. The only reason we would probably not stay here again is that it was difficult to take the dog for long walks, as the only place to walk was along the roadway, otherwise it was a nice place to stay. - Greyt-Parent
