A well-groomed county park on a lake. The campground itself is but one part of a sprawling recreational complex. We were only 1 of about 20 people spread out through the entire park in mid June. $24 got us an electric only site overlooking the lake. The camp installed a new shower house last year.

A well-groomed county park on a lake. The campground itself is but one part of a sprawling recreational complex. We were only 1 of about 20 people spread out through the entire park in mid June.
$24 got us an electric only site overlooking the lake. The camp installed a new shower house last year. Each bathroom/shower is private and lockable. The showers were clean and warm. The caretaker cleans them with a pressure washer and a bleach solution. That gets an A+ in my book for cleanliness.
The only downside is that Hwy 150 and Hwy 34 are close enough for traffic noise to be rather constant and noticeable all day.
A free city WiFi SSID is available and seems to be strongest the closer one gets to the office.

This location was our first night out on a month trip to Idaho. Based on previous reviews decided to give it a shot. Since we are self contained I planned on just using a dry campsite but found out you are not allowed to use generators at all. So took the plunge and got the full hook ups. Dry camping is $18 but just remember no generator use. Probably would have chosen a different campground if I knew that. Still overall not a bad place to overnight. Some road noise but not terrible. Big rig friendly just no pull through sites.

Stayed here on a cross country road trip in June, 2019. Stayed in the Tent sites which are in a field area. Campground was clean, quiet, not crowded. Probably wouldn’t consider it a destination, but it was a good overnight spot. Shopping close by. Showers good, bathrooms clean.

The park is operated by the city of Galesburg, IL. It offers a mix of FHU, Elec/Water and dry camping sites. Total of 149 sites, 21 FHU, 88 with Elec (some water) and the rest are dry. Most sites are on grass. Electric is 50A at the FHU and 30A on the Electric sites. Lots of mature trees. Some of the locations are close to the ... more

Lots of mature trees. Some of the locations are close to the lake (north side).
Rates are:
$14 -Boondock
+ $6 for Electric
+ $9 for Water/Sewer
So an FHU site is $29.
3 bars Verizon inside my Airstream. 22/4.7 mbps Down/Up.
