Kaskaskia Jerry F. Costello Lock and Dam (formerly the Kaskaskia Lock and Dam

Ran by the U.S. army core of engineers. About 15 sites all have 50 amp hook up. Water fill available during season and dump station. $20 a night with shower house and vault toilets. Back up to river with great view, and boat ramps. First come, first serve.

USE THE ADDRESS ON THE WEBSITE, NOT FROM THIS APP

This campsite is actually about 25 miles or so south from what the app is showing on here, use the website listed above to get the correct address. All RV sites with electric, about 10 near the lock & dam and 5 further down the road near the trail head/old boat ramp. The camp sites further back are better shaded and near restrooms. First come first serve, as far as I could tell. Not much to do besides camp & fish, no swimming allowed. The boat dock near the trail head was closed & dried up. The trail is very short, flat, & paved, leads to a nice overlook of the confluence. I camped closer to the lock & dam, it was decent. The activity at the lock & dam was loud during early morning. No shade on one side but fire ring, electric, & picnic table provided. Paid $20. I will go back & try to snag a better site for a weekend & explore the visitor center.

There is no signage for this location , the only slight indication is a boat ramp sign that leads to a area by the river , there is a pavilion and it appears you can fish , but no camping location anywhere
