Fairview Park Campground

$60 to park along the interstate vs $25 a few miles away in a beautiful park? No question we’d gone here again. Serene setting, NO other campers our Friday night in August. Great and attentive host, easy walking distance to all the cool Biggest X things in town from taco to rocking chair to crochet hook to mailbox. A fun overnight and nice facilities.

When we drove up, we weren’t sure how the spots were laid out. And our camp host, Jerry, drove right on up in the golf cart with perfect timing. We drive through the drive the grass and just pick a site. All the spots are drive through too with electric and water. There’s a dump site outside of the bathrooms. They also have a separate building for showers. Jerry said he keeps the keys to the showers. And if we needed them to go over to his house which is across the street (602 E Monroe). He also gave me a wonderful brochure about Casey, IL and their top 10 highlights!

The park is very quiet, clean and easy to have long walks with the dogs. There was a new playground for kids and a large pond with people fishing. There’s also a skate park here, and apparently host Horseshoe Championships here too!

The city, Casey, was inviting and has wonderful shops.

I’m def saving this spot for future trips.

Jerry the host lives across the street from the park who came out greet us when we arrived. There were plenty of lots and we can pick any. There was only another camper who shared the park with us for the night. You need the key to access the bathroom but we didn’t use it. There is no free WiFi. Verizon 4G/LTE signals are ok, data speed is fast enough for video streaming. T-Mobile shows two bars but data is so slow and only text message works. This place feels very safe. Dump station is next to the bathroom with water hose to cleanup after. Overall, this is a nice park and I’d stay here again if I’m passing this area again.

Fairview Park is a beautiful spot in the town of Casey, Illinois.
Campground sites are confusing but according to Jerry just pick a spot.
Only one other RV other than ours spent the night.
When you pull into the park take a left right past the block building (which has the very rustic showers, Jerry will give you the key if you ask) sites are on the left.
Casey is a unique town with the claim of a lot of worlds biggest objects.
My only complaint is the showers and bathrooms are a lot to be desired.

This is a beautiful city park with 24 sites that have electric and water hookups and a dump station. All are pull-through -- ok to drive on grass. Beautiful greenery, ponds, and general park recreation are everywhere. GPS takes you to a hard turn that is unmanageable for most rigs, but caretaker caught us and led us in. Very nice man! Enter via the main gate. We planned on just a one-night layover, but loved it so much, we stayed for two. We had the park to ourselves. We would absolutely recommend!

Casey, Illinois is a town of very big things! They hold several Guinness Book of Records for the "World's Largest" and throughout the town are dozens of "big" items. Here, you will see the world's largest key, mailbox, chime, a big pencil, birdcage, and bunches more. Great photo opportunities. Casey is also located on the Historic National Road and the people are super friendly! Highly recommend a stop here!

Large (considering the  size of the city) camping area. Arrived in the dark so kind of hard to make out sites but they are level. About 30 sites Most (if not all) had water and electric available. Some had picnic tables and firepits as well. Jerry (who picks up the money) lives across the street and only charged us $10. Was quieter than at my house. Bathrooms available 24/7. Jerry said that a key was needed to use the showers. A great place to stay the night before checking out this cute small town.

Campground is a section of Casey's Fairview Park. The park is beautiful, sites are grass, large, level, and easy for big rigs. Showers, bathrooms, 50 & 30 electric and water. Dump station on site. Walk to town...ok so maybe hike to town. Located right off I 70 West of Terre Haute. On a Sunday night in August two campers here and about 35 sites. Convenient overnight or stay and smell the roses.

Easy for a big rig to pull in or out. I would say if it was particularly rainy the ground might be soft though. The campground is attached to their beautiful city park. In the main section of town are thirty or more world record oddities like biggest rocking chair, mouse trap, golf club and tee, mailbox etc. worth a day’s visit. Right off I-70. It is a small town with big things.

Campground has 50 amp hookups and water. Dump station as you leave. There are about 40 hook ups. The night we stayed there were maybe 10 campers.

We were tired of driving on I 70 and didn’t have a reservation anywhere. I called the number listed to make a reservation but you only get the number to the mayors office. We took our chances and came to the park anyway. Glad we did! Beautiful area with 20-30 sites. Had the camping area almost to ourselves. (Made social distancing easy.!) Great playground and ball fields to let the kids run. 100% gem!
