    Beautiful, well maintained

    Beautifully maintained, would like to see a small concession stand for soft drinks and ice cream for the kiddos.

    Small town park

    Nice little community park. Nice paced walking path around the lake. Fenced in dog play area. Large park area with multiple playgrounds. Clean bathroom, flush toilets and showers.

    Fine spot to camp

    I stayed for one night in a non electric site on a trip. The campground was ok. The bathrooms were clean-ish but I couldn’t get the showers to be not cold. The site was nice and level. The sites are right next to each other with nothing breaking up the views of the neighbors. The site had a picnic table and a fire pit. Not many people there on a weeknight. I didn’t really check out the beach or the pool.

    Beautiful Fall Visit

    Just got here but very pleased so far. Nice fresh gravel sites. Lots of trails it seems. Lake is nice sized but not too big. Wish the restaurant was open, but told it may be next Spring. A little issue with the electric @ 1st but maintenance was out right away & got everything up & running. Easy entrance off IL-50. All roads in newly paved. Campground Host (Russ) very attentive and helpful. Water pressure at the Dump site is a little low, but not bad. AT&T reception is GREAT — 4 bars LTE @ the campsite; great for streaming later. For now, off for a quick canoe ride to check out the lake

    Red Hills Lake State Park — Red Hills State Park

    Nice state park with recent upgrades

    We were there in November for just a night. At first I thought the sites were a bit rough and not very level. But while were there, they started to regrade the pads at the sites. The new gravel was leveled and packed flat. The sites are greatly improved.

    Cell service was very good, Verizon, and very quiet. Most sites are 30 amp but the Lake view loop are 50 amp. There are a few sites that will handle large rigs but most are for medium sized rigs.

    Quiet friendly camping

    Price per night is $10 that includes electric and water only ...there is a dump station in the park as well ..you drop your payment at the bathhouse on the honor system. There's lots of playgrounds for kids and a big lake to fish or stroll around as well. Big thumbs up👍

    Beautiful campsite

    We absolutely love this state park. We have three medium size dogs that go with us we have plenty of space at our campsite that is big enough for them. The campsites are clean with electric hook ups. Water is near by to fill up. It is quite place. Beautiful views. Lake is near by to fish. If you have kids they have play ground to play on. Host are very nice and welcoming. We will definitely be back.

    Red Hills Lake State Park — Red Hills State Park

    Quiet little campground

    Nice and quiet with a small lake. Really shaded. Great fishing for largemouth bass, bluegill, crappie, and channel cat. Boats allowed with electric motors only. Max depth is 21 feet. Their is the trace in restaurant across the small lake from the camp ground. Lots to do for kids, as the park has basketball courts, volleyball court, and lots of playground equipment around the park. A five minute drive to the north side of the park offers 2.5 miles of hiking trails in hilly scenery.
