We stayed here 2 nights. We came to see the George Rogers Clark National Monument. Campground was nice. Several full time campers living here. Staff was friendly. Was a little noisy on the weekend. Shower house was very clean.

We were so fortunate to have found The Retreat at Hickory Hills and stay there for a month! There’s two pools, a pickle ball court, a basketball half court, farm animals, golf cart trails, kayak/canoe/row boats, exploring creeks, fishing, a dog park, several playgrounds, Gaga ball, tether ball, volleyball, frisbee golf and several weekend activities for everyone. Saturday mornings were our favorite where we could get biscuits and gravy, coffee and the kids had craft time. It’s definitely worth bringing mountain bikes or renting their golf carts to explore their golf cart trails! We went out on these several times and it never got old! Staff and campers were welcoming and friendly. We still haven’t stopped talking about how CLEAN they keep everything. The sites were large and they’re still expanding and adding more sites. There’s a seasonal campers area and an overnight or monthly area. We stayed in the overnight/monthly area. It was peaceful and relaxing throughout the week and lively during the weekend. It was a wonderful balance!! We’ll definitely be back.
Guide
We have been coming here every year since 2016. Most of the sites are shady. Our favorite site is 72. It is close to a water hookup if you need to top off your fresh water tank, shady, and not too close to other sites. They added a new shower house close by in 2022 or 2023.

Got in late after a spurratic decision to camp. Got here and found that point 5 was open and we tried it. Beautiful view, nice people, and great lake access. Mossy but we casted over it no problem and never had any issues.

Stopped here for lunch and stayed about an hour. Easy to find, multiple shelters with grills. Some light paths and a playground.
GuideThis is our family favorite camp park in Terre Haute! Has great hiking trails, a covered bridge with historical log cabins for festivals. They have 1 cabin you can rent out. Bring your fishing gear, they stock the lake. There's and boat ramp and bank access to kayak. They have some pull through for your big riggs and some sand beds for your tent camping
GuideBeautiful place! Love that we were right next to the water
ScoutWhen asked why I couldn't put up a small fence for my dogs he went to great details to tell me why dogs had a bad rep in his park. When I said it wasn't on the website he got extremely angry, came close to attacking me and thru me out of his park and called the police. Don't stay there if you have pets.

Very well kept, pleasant people. Nice location.

Nice get away , owners are nice and helpful. Nice camp store and a pool..
TravelerStayed at River Birch 15. Site has a pretty severe grade as the site goes back. If you have a 20+ travel trailer I would be inclined to choose another space. Site mostly level left to right. On the corner next to the road but minimal traffic and close walk to the dumpsters and bath house. Nice shade. River Birch is definitely the more popular loop and was full Thursday night versus barely any campers at the other 2 loops.

Nice quiet secluded lots of nature great atmosphere family friendly

Great place to stop overnight or for a few days. Can hear the highway; but it's not very loud or intrusive. Camp host/owner is very friendly. Plenty of room for kids or pets to roam and play. Very clean and safe.
TravelerStayed for 5 days , very nice park with lots to do, hiking, biking,fishing, bird watching. Hiked 3 trails all well kept. Trail 3 favorite. Good place to ride bikes. Shower house clean also new one just built. Wi-Fi was ok, was able to download email and get on company site for work, limited Verizon connection but some. Larges sites Staff friendly and helpful. Will go back again
ScoutGreat place for an overnight stay. The new owners couldn't be any nicer. They're working hard to maintain and improve the campground. I had back issues while there and they kept on rearranging their reservations to accommodate us. Even offered to take me to a doctor. Fantastic people.
TravelerThe Casey KOA has a full range of offerings typical of camping/RV resorts. Friendly service, Clean restroom/showers and even a pond for fishing.

We originally planned to tent camp the first weekend in October but with 30 degree temps and children, we decided to check out the cabins at Greene Sullivan. They did not disappoint. Heat was phenomenal. Vault toilets were well maintained. Beautiful views.
TravelerWe stayed at Ash 8 right on the water. We loved the location of the site but it was very short. I had to park our truck halfway onto the road because there wasn’t enough space. Wouldn’t have been an issue except we were right at the peak of the curve on the loop so needed to move for larger campers to make the turn. We love the location of the park being next to Griffin Bike Park and it makes for a great base camp for a weekend of biking. Big parks for the kids and a settlers village to wander through. The newer shower house is nice and a big upgrade from the older bathrooms that are still there.
Campground as a whole is very similar to other State Parks. Water hookups not available at sites but able to fill up before setting up or bring a very long hose to reach the spicket in the middle of the loop.
Word of caution: 50amp sites only have 50amp and do not have 30amp plugs. You will need an adapter to use 30amp from a 50amp site. The campers next to us found out the hard way and had to drive in to town to get a converter.
GuideThis is a KOA Journey, it is right off the interstate in a nice little town in East Central Illinois. It has full hookup, and electric and water sites.
The ground seems pretty level throughout the entire place so getting your rig setup should be fairly easy. The sites are pretty close together but I expect that at a commercial type campground. The staff was nice and responsive when needed. The playground is old and could use an upgrade along with the recreation room. The pool was nice and well maintained and so are the showers and restrooms. But the shower house does not have AC so keep that in mind.
Overall it’s a nice get away we did stay on Labor Day weekend so there a lot of people coming and going but it worked for us and the kids enjoyed themselves.
TravelerWe stayed in Site 20 for 5 days and had a great experience. The hosts at the time of stay were Alice and Jim. Very sweet old couple.
It was very quiet, even during the day. Nobody was too loud or disrespectful. Sites vary in size and some are FCFS (20-32) while the rest are reserved. Site 20 is the largest FCFS available. Site 14 seems to be the nicest and largest site on the grounds and is where we’ll be staying during our next visit.
Women’s bathroom was in good shape. Kept clean but stained due to age. Women’s vault toilet is fine, but spend the extra 5 minutes and walk to the actual bathhouse if you can.
Cell coverage for Verizon was 1 bar consistently, 2 bars occasionally. Fine for basic tasks but don’t expect to game or stream HD video.
Guide
Beautiful lake with good fishing. Spots are a little unleveled but not bad. Nice restaurant, a little pricey but good food.
GuideMy Wife and I stayed at this campground for 3 nights. Our travel trailer is 22 feet and the site was large enough for our travel trailer and tow vehicle.
Guide
Loved this park, lots to do. Beautiful hiking, a waterfall , wolf cave, pool and horseback riding. The only downside is lots of small lots , with rocks and narrow road but that will not affect my review just have to be cautious when picking as site as there are others ones that are not like that. Stay away from sites 67 & 69.
TravelerI live withing a half hour of this State Park and so far it is in my top 3 best campgrounds. The sites are mostly all shaded and very flat. They're nearly all drop and hook sites so very little need for leveling on nearly all sites. The lakes are nice to fish, kayak, or paddle boat on. The trails are nice as well. This park is a must for any type of camping.
GuideNice place to go camp in April. Nobody is there. Electric was available but no water as usual this time of year. No showers or flush toilets either. There is som construction going on and it should be nice when Summer comes and the regular camping season is open.
ScoutAlways a lot to do, check out the falls and all the trails, it’s an awesome time
