The campground was very pretty, clean, and friendly staff. The bath houses were clean, the outhouses were not bad. Nice walking paths. Grills on the fire pits. I recommend not camping on the downside of the tent Hills. If there is rain you will be washed out.

This campground is very good. Water and Facilities are everywhere. Only one shower house.

This is a nice state park. There are some decent hiking trails that are bike friendly. Nothing outrageous, really good to get out and put some miles on and great for kids learning to ride off pavement. The campground has some nice spacious sites in several different areas. There are pull-through sites for bigger rigs and grassy sites for tents. It's a good place to spend a couple nights. There is a decent fishing lake with canoe/kayak/paddle boat rentals. There is a separate lake with a beach, though you have to pay to use the beach.

The restaurant by the fishing lake has standard fare, but the ice cream is quite good.

The grounds were clean as well as the bathrooms. Well spaced campsites with bushes and trees in between to provide privacy. Although in the spring, the greenery was fairly thin. Quite a few large groups partying in the evening but quieted down around 10pm. Trail around the lake is well maintained.

This past weekend was our first visit to Rock Cut State Park and overall we enjoyed our stay and do plan Togo back! Our site (330) was a little more private ham most of the sites we say, so we advice you to pay attention when booking the site because some are in open fields with little to no privacy. The Park is just off I-90 interstate so while hiking we could hear freeway traffic! Overall it was a nice park with 2 lakes (1 is non motorized, the other is a no wake) that were great for fishing and kayaking!

We always make our first trip of the year to Rock Cut State Park. For us it's close to home, shopping and an RV dealership so it's pefect to "shake out" the camper and we can easily get anything we forgot or get stuff to repair anything that's not working. The park is very good sized with nice camping sites, pet friendly, loads of trails to hike and bike and a lake for quiet water sports, no motor boats allowed.

Normal Illinois state park. Not a lot of services but good size sites and peaceful. Lake with canoe rentals and fishing. Nice walking trails.

The park is nice. Close to town, has a nice beach large lake and pleasant vibe. They do lock the gates at 10pm so don’t expect to hangout in town past 10. Fun stuff to do is fishing, biking, seeing the town and visiting the racetrack.

Great boating. Beautiful nature. Not something you would expect near Rockford.

Very nice campground. Would definitely come again.

Three times the staff sent me to sites that were already occupied (with park issued tags on them). This involves driving back and forth for miles at 10mph. Then, the bath house was filthy, so I waited until after cleaning...the same men's underwear was still in the shower stall! The Olson Beach swimming area was nice (it is a pond, not a swimming pool), and the attendant was helpful. However, they have just announced that it is now closed. That negates the only reason to return with my grandchildren. Sorry, but this once great jewel is now underwhelming.

This park and campsite are pretty popular. This is a great place for canoeing and kayaking! We also went fishing. Long hikes throughout the park are also enjoyable. The camping was decent. As were the facilities. Fairly close to home so I'll probably be back but only for the kayaking. My overall feelings on everything else were just kinda meh. Nothing compared to some of the MO and AK kayaking that I've done. Like seriously the okayest park ever.

Of all of the campgrounds that I have visited in Illinois, I would say that Rock Cut State Park is the best that I have seen. It boasts as being the largest State Park in Northern Illinois. It has a large lake with almost 40 miles of hiking trails, including equestrian trails and an equestrian campground. There is boating and fishing as well as swimming in the lake.

The campground staff is very helpful and do a good job at keeping it clean and well maintained even with the large number of visitors. Don't miss my interview with Marsha, one of the friendly staff members at Rock Cut State Park.

This state park is close to Rockford, Il. There are opportunities to camp, hike, kayak and bike. I rode in on my bicycle and was able to set up before the rain. The ride was 2 - 3 miles long through some beautiful wooded areas of the state park before you get to the campground. The trails were a bit confusing but the camp area was understandable. There are showers and covered pavilions which were nice features. This is a nice place to go to get a break for a few days.

Many options to do around the state park. Many different camping options too!!

Great areas for camping and many sites to choose from. They have many kid and dog friendly activities to participate in. Offer water activities; paddle boating is a blast. Beautiful park overall.

My husband and I with my 3 kids stayed at rock cut on June 9th and 10th. Our first day it was raining pretty consistent as we set up. We had a site close to the boat launch so that the kids could fish. Evem though we were near the launchn our site still felt private. By 6 the rain stopped and we enjoyed the beauty all around. This camp ground was very well groomed, the roads and paths were wonderful. Across the lake from us there was a café and store/rental . They had everything from hot coffee and burgers to fantastic fishing gear. We rented a paddle boat for $15 an hour. The lake was so beautiful! They didn't allow swimming in the lake we were on but there was another lake that had a beach with the park.

I did not camp here but went kayaking instead. This place is real great and is a place for water sports. You can also fish here. There is a hiking trail around the huge lake which was a highlight, There is a lot of campsites so its o.k if you come late. They do let you rent boats

site: not very private. largely open area. amenities: decently clean. attractions: canoes/kayaks for rent. lake. I might go camping here again. Not a favorite, but not bad either.
