County-managed Allison Lake Storey sits alongside its namesake lake in Galesburg, operating from mid-April through mid-October. The campground accommodates tents through large RVs with sites ranging from primitive to full hookups, though reviewers note that bigger rigs may face challenges with uneven terrain on some spots.
Two bathhouse facilities serve the property, with the newer building featuring individual private shower and toilet areas that lock. Stephanie S. notes the staff "are very helpful in directing you towards a good site suited for you." Full hookup sites sit on concrete pads with fire rings positioned behind each site, though these spots receive sun exposure throughout most of the day. Campers staying here receive free access to the adjacent water park.
The lake provides fishing and kayaking opportunities, while forest trails wind through the area for walking. Some campers report hearing periodic noise from a nearby shooting range across the water and occasional traffic sounds, though sites farther from the road experience less disturbance. Reviews mention that cleanliness and crowding levels vary significantly between early and peak season visits.
Staff members consistently earn praise for their friendliness and helpfulness with site selection and general questions. For those exploring the broader region, campgrounds around Galesburg offer additional overnight options within the area.
