    Camp Nauvoo

    Great value, nice campground

    Camp Nauvoo is a nice, church operated, park only 5 minutes from downtown Nauvoo. We stayed one night on our way to Minnesota. The sites are sunny and all are pull-through.but some have shade. The park streets are gravel with concrete pull-through sites. The park is very quiet. Great value for $32. Full hookups. 

    Stayed in campsite#10 which has no shade. It was a concrete pull-through with more than enough parking for my TT and truck and grass on either side. The site included: picnic table. Utilities were located in different spots. 20A/30A/50A electric in the middle, water near the rear, and sewer near the front. Site was level. No neighbor on passenger/awning side. 

    AT&T had 3 bars of LTE and Verizon 1 bar of LTE service. AT&T Speedtest: 56.8 Mbps down, 9.3 Mbps up. Free WiFi available, but I had trouble connecting. 

    If you are southbound on Illinois Hwy 96, the left turn off the highway is very sharp and steep. Might be easier to continue about a mile south and use the scenic turnout to turnaround. It is a pull-through turnout. Then, turn off the highway on the right.

    Would stay here again. We camped at Camp Nauvoo in a Travel Trailer.

    Carthage City Park

    Accessible, shady, and near sights to see

    While they were working on adding a bath house with toilets the campground is at the local golf course to use. 30 amp and water only. Gravel pads, mostly level. Shade and quiet in pm. During day you have golfers but not enough to bother you. A pavilion is available for use. Good area close to stores, fuel and off-site dump station.

    Long Branch State Park Campground

    Great Walk-In Campgrounds

    The walk-in campgrounds (it's about a 50 foot walk from the parking lot to each site) at Long Branch are located off in their own little area at the shore of the lake that offers some pretty good isolation. Although we went at a time when the water was still shut off, there are bathrooms and water available via a very short walk from the walk-in sites April 1-Oct 31. The sites are each very spacious with flat areas and material already laid out for pitching a tent and plenty of trees for throwing up a hammock. Although firewood was stated to be available year round from the vending machine, it was locked up when we went through, but there is a convenience store right across the highway from the lake that sells wood bundles and anything else you might need.

    We really enjoyed our time here and we'll definitely be coming back in the warmer months to enjoy some swimming and boating.

    Frank Russell Campground

    Nice stay

    This was a 1 night stay while getting to the east coast. Most impressed by how perfectly level our paved parking pad was. We didn’t have to level the rv or even unhook it from the truck. Very few campers as some sections were closed, peaceful & quiet evening. Shady site with picnic table and fire ring. Restrooms were clean-ish (we are camping, right?), they could use a fresh coat of paint and soap dispensers. Showers were fine. Used their dump station and filled the water tank as we exited the park. Would recommend & would stay there again

    Wakonda Lake Campground — Wakonda State Park

    Convenient stop

    Looking for an overnight stay on a long road trip. Park is close to highway, fairly empty on a Monday night. Easy pull through site close to lake. Quiet. Bathhouse nothing fancy, could have been cleaner. Easy access to dump station. Staff very friendly.

    Badger — Mark Twain State Park

    Badger Loop

    A group of us stayed on the Badger loop. Each has gravel pads with electric, picnic table, lantern pole and fire ring. Plenty of buffer between sites and quiet. Clean showers, park programs for kids and friendly camp host. We enjoyed driving over to Mark Twain’s birth place and shrine and antiquing in Perry.

    Hickory Haven Campground

    Pretty, wooded campground

    Needed an overnight spot on our way north, off season for camping in this area.  Called mid afternoon for availability and spoke with John who promptly told us he would hold a site for us. Large campground that has a few full hookup sites open year around. We were given a site between a couple of traveling workers. Both came out to greet us which was very nice. Site was a bit small but certainly ok for a night's stay. Many larger sites farther back in the closed area. Full hook-ups. Level gravel. Picnic table available. Laundry and restrooms very clean. Playground, pavilion for movies, dog area, frog pond, hiking trails and beautiful woods. A few camping supplies available in the office. This would be a fun getaway for families in the summer months.

    Wildcat Springs Park

    Wildcat Creek Campground, Hamilton , Illinois

    Wildcat is a very nice campground operated by the City of Hamilton, Illinois. Campground has only 17 RV slots of various sizes. We had room to put our 32 foot fifth wheel and room to park our truck alongside. Ours was one of a couple of sites large enough to handle our size.

    Their website says the nightly fee is $15 for tents and $25 fir RV. When we arrived we were informed that it had gone up to $20 fir tent and $30 for RV.

    Service excludes electricity of 30 and 50 amp. Water is also available at each site. A dump station is on site.

    Also on site is a very nice public pool and interesting Disc Golf course.

    Very quite and peaceful surroundings. Just a half mile off of the Mississippi River.

    We will definitely return here when we get back to the area.

    Beautiful

    I can’t say enough about this beautiful campground on the shores of Mark Twain Lake. Friendly staff made us feel right at home. Three sections Deer run cedar ridge and Little Blue Stem. We stayed at Little Blue Stem. All three have quite a selection off full hookups as well as 50 Amp sites. There was an adequate Shower house in each section. All felt clean and safe. Large sites nestled in well wooded area. Black Jack Marina minutes away has convenient store and rentals. Even serves breakfast on the weekends. Several different area boat ramps as great picnic areas. Play area closed due to Covid.

Guide to Lewistown

Lewistown, Missouri offers several RV campgrounds located near the confluence of the Mississippi and Salt Rivers. The area sits at an elevation of approximately 650 feet with hot summers and moderately cold winters. Camping options range from state parks with concrete pads to privately owned RV parks with varying amenities, most within a 30-mile radius of Lewistown.

What to do

Fishing access: Wakonda State Park features six small lakes for bank fishing and boat access with restrictions on motor size. "We have a water view. Great for fishing. There are also full hookups. There's a playground and boat access and swimming," notes a visitor to Wakonda Lake Campground.

Swimming beach: Several campgrounds in the area offer swimming options during summer months. At Boulder Lake Campground, campers can enjoy "a nice swimming beach with a place to shower off the sand," according to one reviewer who adds there are "interesting cement tunnels/bunkers that kids might have fun exploring."

Hiking trails: Explore the network of trails at Wakonda State Park ranging from 0.5 to 5 miles. A visitor reports, "The park has several lakes to fish and boat with multiple trails ranging from 1 to 5 miles. The sites are a little tight but at the time of our visit the park was empty."

What campers like

Concrete pads: Most RV sites at Wakonda State Park feature level concrete pads. "The concrete slab was large enough for our camper and rug along with the picnic table! A lot of room! The BBQ was nice and the fire pit had a built on grill as well," shares a camper at Wakonda Lake Campground.

Clean facilities: Many campers note the well-maintained bathhouses at several campgrounds. A visitor to Driftwood Campground in nearby Quincy, Illinois comments, "The showers and restroom were impressively clean. The hosts could not have made me feel more welcome."

Family activities: RV parks in the region often include amenities for families. At Mark Twain Lake Jellystone Park, a reviewer notes, "Being after Labor Day the water park was closed, but looked like fun. Mini golf was booming. They had nice pavilion areas for gatherings. There was also a large swimming pool."

What you should know

Seasonal closures: Many campgrounds in the region operate with limited schedules. Driftwood Campground runs from mid-March through November 1st, while at Camp Nauvoo, a visitor notes, "Camp Nauvoo is a nice, church operated park only 5 minutes from downtown Nauvoo. The sites are sunny and all are pull-through but some have shade."

Privacy levels: Site spacing varies between campgrounds. At Boulder Lake Campground, "If you can get site 44, you have probably the best site in the campground as it sits at the end of the loop with no close neighbors, close to the lake, and backs to nice trees. None of the other sites are as private."

Highway noise: Some campgrounds are located near highways. One Boulder Lake camper mentions, "My only complaint is the highway a little close and it can be loud."
