We arrived late in the evening at this campground and encountered some problems with the campground hookups but all issues were resolved immediately by campground personnel.

The water front is beautiful and a great view to wake up to!

The campground has nice bathrooms and showers that are well kept.

Our family has been camping here for years. Starved Rock State Park and nearby Matthiessen State Park offer beautiful hiking, canyons, and waterfalls along the Illinois Michigan River.

Regarding the campground: There are several options for tent camping, RVing and trailers. I definitely recommend making reservations in advance as it tends to fill up quick!

Showers and toilets are… well… camping showers and toilets… nothing special but do the job.

There is a small town close by with lovely little cafes, shops, and gas station.

There is also a Grizzly Jacks Grand Bear Resort that has an indoor water park and amusement park.
