Love to swim in the pool, play in the bags tournaments, enjoy the fundraiser in July for St. Jude Children’s Hospital, mini golf, basketball and theme weekends. My favorite is the chili cook off and Halloween weekends are a blast!!
The place is nice and very quiet on weekdays. My only complaint is Rick who runs the place. I have not had good experiences with him. He really seems unhappy in his job. I heard him tell a good friend of mine while I was standing just feet away "... I hate managing the place".
They are spending a lot on this campground. New restrooms, traveled all pads, trimmed trees, new playground equipment. It is a hidden gem. If you are on I 74 great place to stay. We will be back. A lot of events scheduled. Cabins being put in.
Peaceful campground, well maintained, beautiful views of the Upper Peoria Lake/Illinois River. We enjoyed a nice pull-through full hookup site that required minimal leveling. Water has a lot of iron so does smell/taste weird.
Friendly staff. Kayak and Pontoon to rent. Trails go all over the entire park! Clean showering facilities. Our furnished cabin faced the lake it was an incredible view. We had fun fishing and sitting by the campfire in the evenings. Overall definitely worth the 5 stars!!!! Thanks Ryan and all of the staff out there! We will revisit soon.
Hosts were very welcoming. Cozy and quiet location. Lots of room.
At some point, when walking through this thickly packed, seemingly endless supply of super-thin pencil trees that comprise this hidden gem of a forest, one realizes a pretty amazing fact: when mankind is purposeful about not just preserving, but proliferating the pristine nature that exists all around us, we can be incredibly successful in that endeavor. But only if we put our minds to it. That’s precisely the thought I had when seeing this Pencil Tree Forest for the first time. Obviously, this forest didn’t happen out of pure luck and it certainly wasn’t through preservation of what had existed before that we first stepped foot on this particular patch of land that led to this most immaculate place. No, it was actually the Corp of Engineers that purposefully planted the trees that now adorn this amazing swath of heaven no earth.
As for the campground itself, while there isn’t much brush here to provide any decent privacy, the overabundance of hardwoods, giant oaks and pines in this area creates an overwhelming sense of solace and peacefulness, despite being able to see most of your neighbors. The spots themselves are all Class A Camping, offering just electric (so, no sewer or water hook-ups for the RV-toting crowd), with 71 pads being offered and 25 Class C Camping tent sites. There is a single shower structure here and a few different bathrooms, some more permanent than a few others, that seem to either be temporary or are being worked on. There’s plenty of picnic tables and in-ground fire rings w/ fold-over BBQ grills. Beyond this, be prepared to bring what you need with you.
If you are looking to get on the water and either get some rowing in or attract some fish to your line, then nearby Lake Johnson has you covered. In fact, it’s so close, you can easily walk to it, but if you have your own kayak or canoe, you might want to tow it down to the boat launch with your SUV or truck if you have the means. And if you don’t have any watercraft, no biggie, the good folks here at the Marina will rent you one of theirs. Note that only electric trolling motors are allowed to be on the lake here.
Whether you want to stay near your campsite or go further afield, there’s no shortage of great picnic areas, whether it’s a simple picnic table set up lakeside, perhaps with its own grill or cooking stove, or under the shade of a covered pavilion, there’s lots of options here to create the absolute perfect outdoor feasting occasion.
Insider’s tips? Here’s a few: (1) You’ve got to check out Ryan’s Round Barn, which you would have seen upon entering Johnson-Sauk Trail State Park, and is a local landmark of sorts, which was built around the turn of the century by Protestant religious sects who designed these in a particular way so as they ‘didn’t leave any corners where the devil could hide.’; (2) If you’ve got hiking on your mind, there’s some really good, albeit basic hiking to be had here with some very great sightseeing – in all there’s about 12 miles of good hiking to explore the area here from Johnson-Sauk that will have you walking through seasoned pine and old oak forests; (3) Should you want to go fishing and find yourself in need of anything, whether its rental boats, snacks and sodas, fishing bait or souvenirs, the Marina here at Johnson-Sauk has you covered; (4) There’s also a decent restaurant here at the Marina, called Red Earth Café, but when we were there last, it was closed and we heard rumors that is was not going to reopen, which was a bummer, therefore, if you want to eat out, you’re going to have to trek it back in to nearby Annawan, just due north on 78, where there’s just a few restaurants to choose from, including Mick’s Bar & Grill, which basically has hot dogs and burgers or Purple Onion, which has typical Midwestern comfort food like country fried steak, fried walleye and pork chops; and (5) The hit of Annawan, IMHO, is Paxton’s Corner Coop, which will immediately make you feel like you have stepped foot on some film location in Hollywood, with all of its other-worldly oddities, but press on and enter the establishment to find some of the most delectable desserts I have ever come across: caramel rolls, amazing natural ice cream, delectable cupcakes and, my personal favorite, the oatmeal crème sandwiches!
Happy Camping!
Beautiful views. Great sites. Excellent communication from the manager. We got a pull-through site in the middle. We brought our two dogs and they loved this place. Our kids did too. No there's no playground, but our 7 and 8 year old girls loved this place. No there's no pool. It was very quiet and peaceful. Every day the manager and his crew were working on maintaining the grounds. The only complaint - there's no sign on the bathroom/shower house! Please put up a sign! (It's right next to the office, but you cannot tell it's a bath house because it looks just like the cabins next to it. There's no signs to tell you where the dumpster is either. Ask Don - he's very friendly and accommodating. Oh, the water. Like the other reviewers stated, the water is not for drinking. Bring cases of bottled water. But the water is fine for showering or other things. Even with water filters, it is still brown. I'm guessing that is because of the river. Good luck finding a site with no shade. There's mature trees everywhere! Also, it was very quiet and peaceful. The showers and bathrooms are amazing! Very clean. We'll be back!
Always a great experience at spring lake. Fishing, boat rentals, convenience store and shower house are all great. Beautiful and we’ll maintained.
I came to this campground because of a local event where I knew I was going to be gone a decent amount of time, but also have some down time. This place was perfect for my needs. I got a full hookup site, easy access, extremely quiet. Great views at the opposite side of the campground from where I was. Looks like lots of "permanent" sites mixed with regular turnover. Also looked like a lot of sites were occupied by people working in "traveling" industries, where this place was their temporary home. I would come back again for a similar situation, but the playground is very minimal, so I wouldn't come back with my kid.
Very open place. Great spots to fish, and everything here is shaded.
Great staff! Helpful. Pulled out privacy tent to remedy toilet concerns. Small flies or gnats quite annoying. Pretty, quiet, lush. Would worry about mosquitoes in late summer.
The shower houses are amazing! This campground is very well maintained and right on the Illinois river. The view of Peoria at night is beautiful
We stopped here for a night on both ends of our trip to Southern Illinois. The campground was recently turned into a KOA. The new owners made significant improvements, including a brand new shower house, new playground equipment, mini golf, pool, and laundry. The grounds are lovely and well-maintained and the location is super quiet and peaceful. There was a pretty little pond and a dog run. Plenty of pull-through sites and FHU options, as well as cabin rentals. The hosts were delightful and really accommodating. Will definitely return!
Good campsites for tent camping, can't speak to RV's. Wooded and shady, clean facilities, electric and water for tent camping. Good Price, nice location for fishing and kayaking. also.
Had the tent section nearest the to the lake to ourselves (site 100). This was great since we had a reactive dog, so it being not crowded was perfect! If it was full, I would think the sites are too close to one another. Had fun kayaking on the lake, caught a catfish! Bathroom building is decent, nothing fancy. Had showers and multiple stalls. The downsides to this campground are: tons of geese poop where the dock and sidewalk is at the edge of the lake, restaurant and rental building is closed until future notice, anyone can come into the campground (no check in), had strangers outside the campground almost steal our belongings.
Great little campground with nice staff/owners. The tent sites are nicely tucked away from the RVs, with a row of bushes to separate you from your neighbor. Nice shade. I didn't check out the Porta potty set up for the tenters but hiked up to the building instead. Very clean! I wouldn't mind coming back to enjoy the activities in the area along the Hennepin canal but we had a family wedding to attend in Michigan the next day.
Millpoint is a nice campground again not a lot of internet, but since there are not a lot of folks it is not bad. Great TV.
Loved the water. We went in Fall so not that many people camping. It was nice.
Lots of trees, we'll maintained. Was surprised it was not crowded. Had about 1 bar 4g Verizon at best.
Clean grounds, nicest bath house I’ve seen at a camp ground, hands down. Deluxe patio site on the ends nearest the pond are preferable. The regular sites may be considered a bit cramped by some standards. All fire pits seem to have grill grates. Deluxe sites additionally have a grill and large concrete patio. Highly recommended campgrounds. We’ll be staying here and other KOA sites again.
Owner was friendly and campsite was clean and spacious. We had a beautiful view of the river and we’re right next to the water so the kids could fish.
Cute campground with lots of sites for campers, tents and hammocks. We stayed at Site 80, which was right by the parking lot.
We stayed on Father’s Day weekend and Friday night was nice, quiet and secluded. Saturday night was the opposite however, with people at the campers and rvs staying up late.
The main toilets and showers were functional- a few pit toilets were closed by the tent area. The restaurant and bait shop/boat rental was closed due to no staffing.
Very nice trails and lake area- keep an eye out for mulberries and raspberries!
Playground was nice for the kiddos and our dog loved jumping in the lake!
This place felt like real camping. The spots were pretty spread out and easy pull through. It was full hookup with electric, water, and sewage. The host was fast as soon as we pulled up he printed a receipt and escorted us to our spot with his truck. He even gave a coupon to a pizza shop that he owned which was super cool.
Plenty of big shady tree and river front views. Bugs werent too bad. We were able to do some fishing and kayaking. We caught some bluegill, buffalo, and large mouth bass.
It was dog friendly with plenty of room to walk your dogs around.
The only thing that was weird was there was no dumpsters to be found. We looked everywhere for them and could not find them. We ended up hauling our trash with us.
Camped here over the 2022 Memorial Day weekend and had a great time. We were on the river side so we could fish, watch the sunset. Large sites part shade. The owner Don, what can you say, he was great, if you needed anything he was there to accommodate. We did not use the shower house as we had a camper but we had to check them out, they were spotless. We are definitely going back.
A lovely campground. It's nestled in a pine forest so if you love hammock camping, this place is perfect. The sites are spread out enough that you don't feel like you are on top of other campers. Each site has a fire spot with a grill grate. The sites are pretty even; some had a slight slope but not too bad.
There's lots to do at this park- they rent kayaks, paddleboats, and basic fishing boats. There's some good fishing, if that's your thing. Plus, there are some hiking trails around the park. There's a small shop on site with limited stock. When we went (summer 2021) you had to buy the wood on site at the shop.
Campground is very well kept with very clean showers and restrooms. Golf carts are allowed here which is a plus. There are some river front sites that are electric only, the full hook ups are away from the river. Some of the sites can be a bit cramped but everyone was nice so it didn’t bother me. There are a lot of seasonal campers there as well. I payed $28 a night for a full hook up.
This rustic looking camp has a lot of hidden gems. Wide sites. FHUs. Right on the water. Level sites. Lots and lots of trees. It’s natural and rustic. Owner/Mgr is great and low-key and just a nice guy. Was honest about everything, especially this time of the year. Much appreciated
