Where Can I Find The Best Campgrounds In Illinois?

Crystal Lake RV Resort is one of many campgrounds that offers so much more than a place to rest your head. Here are some of the best.

  • Grayville KOA Holiday is a unique wild-west-themed camping resort located near the Wabash River and the border with Indiana. The quirky theme is popular with kids, and so are many of the attractions here - including an elaborate playground and a 27-hole mini-golf course. There's also a cleverly themed vintage shooting gallery. The campground even has a full-service restaurant, the Westwood Saloon, which offers rustic food like ribs and hamburgers.
  • Fish Lake Beach Camping Resort is one of the biggest camping resorts in all of Illinois, located on a hundred acres of land by the titular lakeside. Nor far from Six Flags Great America, it's the perfect spot on a road trip thanks to its extensive selection of RV and tent sites, as well as rustic cabins. Fun on the water is the main selling point here, as the massive lake is a great place to go kayaking or paddleboarding, while younger guests will love splashing in the smaller pool.
  • Giant Goose Ranch is an 840-acre campground in Canton that is located around multiple lakes, and might just be the most unique campground in Illinois. There are 52 bodies of water on the property, a remnant of the property's time being strip-mined. Today, it's a top spot for boating and fishing. The campground also doubles as a sportsman's club, so many people come here not just as a vacation stop, but as a vacation in its own right.
