Best RV Parks & Resorts near Urbana, IL

192 Reviews

Several RV parks surround Urbana, Illinois, providing convenient options for motorhome travelers. D & W Lake RV Park in Champaign offers full hookup sites with 50-amp service, level gravel pads, and big rig accessibility. Prairie Pines Campground in Rantoul features spacious pull-through sites with full hookups that operate year-round. "Super nice owners of this driving range with campsites. It's extremely close to the popular Lake of the Woods Forest preserve," notes one visitor about Tin Cup RV Park in Mahomet, which provides 50-amp electrical service and sewer connections. Sites throughout the region are typically equipped with picnic tables and fire rings, while most RV campgrounds maintain clean shower facilities and laundry services. Clinton Lake State Recreation Area, located about 30 miles west, accommodates larger motorhomes with electric hookups and offers lakeside camping.

Reservations are highly recommended during summer months and University of Illinois event weekends when RV sites fill quickly. Most campgrounds in the area provide sanitary dump stations, with Prairie Pines and D & W Lake offering full sewer hookups at individual sites. Cell service is generally strong throughout the region due to proximity to Champaign-Urbana. While Gibson City South Park Municipal Campground provides year-round camping with 50-amp service, Tom & Carol's RV Park operates seasonally from April through October. Pet-friendly policies are standard at most RV parks near Urbana, though specific restrictions may apply. One traveler mentioned, "Level sites, clean restrooms and showers and friendly staff no sewer or water hookup but a convenient dump station." Easy access from Interstate 74 makes these campgrounds convenient stopping points for RVers traveling through central Illinois.

    Bo Wood

    Campground with all the comforts

    The Forest Bo Wood Recreation area has grown each year since I first camped there in 1979.

    In 2017 it has 150 camping sites, a boat ramp, fish cleaning station, several picnic areas and a bait shop at the entrance on Illinois Route 32 4 miles South of Sullivan. The camp sites all have parking space for a big rig and one vehicle. There are some tent only sites but most have been converted to at least 30 amp electric sites with water hookups near the site. Many lake side sites are available, some years back there was a problem with the bank, but that has been dealt with.

    Bath rooms and shower houses are very clean and there is good bank fishing near the pavilion at the turn around at the west end of the area. There is a marina just 1 mile South and across the bridge another ½ mile is the Sullivan beach. Just 1 more mile South is a Rosatti's pizza located in a gas station with a liquor store. Rossati's delivers pizza's to the 2 campgrounds that are this close to the business. People that love the comforts of home while camping love this campground, so it fills up in the spring and summer months.

    All sites are spacious and include a picnic table, lantern stand, fire pit with grill grate and some have added camp stove stands. I find that October camping at Bo Woods most agreeable with less people tent camping and less boat traffic on the lake. The fishing this time of year is also very good.

    Friends Creek Campground

    Secluded and Cozy

    We stayed here during our travels from Kansas to Indiana. While we only stayed one night, it was long enough to know that should we travel nearby again-this will be our stopping point. Easy to access from the highway yet while in the park, we experienced pure bliss and quiet. Spacious sites and an abundant amount of shade made this stay even better! The camp hosts do an excellent job as the grounds and bathhouse were all immaculate! These are electric only sites however there are several water spigots to fill the tank prior to parking. For ease, there are even potable water spigots at the dump station and the bathhouse as well. Our site was fairly level and easy to maneuver into. For reference, we have a 34’ fifth wheel. When reserving, note that there are a handful of 50 amp sites, several 30 amp sites and tent sites available.

    Friends Creek Campground

    Great place to camp

    Level sites, clean restrooms and showers and friendly staff no sewer or water hookup

    but a convenient dump station

    Friends Creek Campground

    Nice rural camping

    General: 40-site campground with three non-electric and the rest are either 30 or 50-amp electric. Several water spigots are sprinkled throughout the campground. 

    Site quality: All sites are gravel and level. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. The sites are spaced a decent amount of distance apart and with the many trees, it did not feel crowded, despite being almost full when we were there. 

    Bath/Shower: Very clean with soap, paper towels, and a shelf for toiletries. Did not use the shower but it looked clean as well. 

    Activities/Amenities: There are two well-marked and well-maintained trails plus a playground and basketball hoop. There is also a historic schoolhouse, and guided tours are available by calling. Before leaving the next morning, I enjoyed a walk on the two trails. There is a dump station and potable water.

    The campground was almost completely full on a Friday at the end of October yet very quiet.

    Walnut Point State Park Campground

    Great family spot- relaxing

    Stayed for 3 nights and loved it. Gave 4 stars instead of 5 because it was electric only. There are 4 total camp areas in the campground portion of the park. Grey Squirrel and Fox Squirrel are the RV sites and Grey and Fox Tent are the tent areas. Tents are allowed in the RV area as well. Each site has a gravel pad, grill/fire pit and picnic table, as well as electric hook up. There is one dump station near the campground entrance, and water fill there or in a few locations in the campground. There is not water and sewer hookup at each pad. Some spots have decks, but not all, and the handicap accessible spots are paved with concrete. All spots in Fox Squirrel are landlocked. In Grey Squirrel, odd numbered sites 15-25 back up to the lake. All the Grey Squirrel sites have trail access to several docks and a couple of boat launches. There are a few out house/bathrooms for each area. There is at least one communal shower house. There are playgrounds throughout the park and a concession building near the campground entrance. You have to get firewood at the concession building to burn in the park. You can also rent kayaks, purchase bait, get info, and buy snacks. The concessions has recently changed hands and is now run by the same company who handles Moraine View. Overall it’s a great little park. Nice hiking, lots of quiet fishing options. No swimming or motor boats. We will go back for sure!

    Prairie Pines Campground

    One Muddy Night Stay

    PROS 

    Able to reserve via Reserve America 135 days prior to arriving 

    Park staff very friendly and helpful 

    Entry code for toilet/shower house 

    Gravel site surrounded by grass 

    Aluminum picnic table on concret slab 

    Metal fire pit with cooking grate 

    Follow directions to park from their website as GPS misdirected 

    Coin-operated laundromat in toilet/shower building 

    This is the mobile home park of the decommissioned Chanute Air Force Base repurposed as a campground and operated by the City of Rantoul, so where a mobile home was, it is now a campsite. Streets, sidewalks, curbs and street parking areas still exists. Because of that, all sites are pull-thrus from the perimeter road. 

    CONS 

    No senior discount

    $3.50 reservation fee for self made online reservation 

    Rain saturated ground prohibited site pull in. Had to back up over a steep street curb into a non angled site. 

    Unable to get into originally selected campsite due to insufficient room to back into site, so moved to Site #13. 

    Street lights throughout campground WiFi available but wasn’t given log on password upon check in and office had closed for the day once we realized we didn’t get the log on password

    Prairie Pines Campground

    Pleasantly surprised

    I was pleasantly surprised that this in town park didn't feel in town.

    It's on the outskirts of town on the old Chanute AFB. They have lovely tree coverage, it's close to lots of amenities like grocery shopping, sports complex, urgent care, quick interstate access.

    If you want to park and go adventure the area, ride the bike path, check out some of the surrounding towns or local shopping it's all right there but doesn't feel right there. Or you can set up and just relax for a long weekend.

    Free delivery with purchase of firewood, and if you're not in the mood to cook dominoes delivers too!

    Camping, glamping, rv life, you name it, your rig will be happy in this pull through park.

    Weldon Springs State Park Campground

    Nice place!

    Quiet, well-spaced campground with nice concrete fire rings & picnic tables. There are only a few pull-through sites and there are several spots with size limitations for campers. The park has beautiful natural meadows, an old schoolhouse to explore, and a large pond with trails all the way around it. A WWII memorial is found along the pond and there are also boat rentals and plenty of good fishing spots. The park also has decent shower houses and more than one playground for the kids. Along the marina that have snacks/concessions as well.
