Blackwell Family Campground

Beautiful campground in forest preserve in the middle of the city!

We loved this campground!  Campsites are well laid out.  Electric sites.  Water to fill tank and dumpsite.  It is a great place to stay if you are visiting the west side of Chicago area. 

They have a strict no alcohol policy.  The gates closed at sunset and no one is allowed in or out after that.  There is no code.  It is only open on the weekends.   It was quiet except for some traffic noise that filters in from the highway.  

This is a Dupage county forest preserve and there is lots of wildlife.  Nice bike trails.  Small lakes for fishing and kayaking. 

Guests over 65 get one FREE weekend to stay there a year even if out of state.  Do call their office and reserve a site ahead of time.  It does fill up.
