?July Camping
The fun is returning with warmer weather and safe activities!
COVID-19:
Please be aware, that some of the COVID-19 measure are still in place!
We are keeping pace with the careful reopening of public facilities in the state of Illinois. Please note, that some of our features might not be available yet in the month of July. Among those are the pool and the playgrounds. Per our governor’s order, no visitors are allowed in the park until further notice.
We expect everybody to practice social distancing and have a mask handy, should the distance of 6 feet not be possible.
FUN FEATURES:
The minigolf and frisbee golf and horse shoe court are free and open for all to use.
The banana bikes are ready to rent, too!
Guided family activities on Saturdays are back! We are working with each family separately and are disinfecting equipment between each use.
Please feel free to bring your own yard games. We have plenty of wide open spaces, lawns, mature, shade providing trees, where you can play with your family!
EXPRESS CHECK-IN:
We are participating in the KOA Express Check-In initiative. Please expect a email, that let’s you review your reservation one more time and give us a ‘green light’ to quickly check you in remotely. When arriving at the campground, a team member will meet you at the gate. He or she will hand you your paper work and gate card, inform you about what is open and what is still part of our pandemic measures. You will be guided to your site. At this point you may let us know, if there are any changes to your reservation (e.g number of guests, departure date or credit card) and place an order for fire wood and ice.
For guests arriving after 7pm an envelope with a gate card and instructions on how to find your site will be ready in the Late Arrival Box.
DELIVERIES:
Since our office and store are closed, we are delivering to your site! We carry a lot of items, just ask! For this and other communication we will be using a text messaging service during your stay. Please make sure, that we have your cell phone number on file!
We are very exited to have you camp with us and are looking forward to your stay!
That doesn't mean this area has to always be empty. When you start reviewing camping options, your history will display here to help compare sites and find the best stay. You will be able to share your stay information with friends or family and save it for a later time if you have a KOA Account.
Make checkout easy by booking all your reservations at once. Add your sites from different campgrounds into your shopping cart* and then choose checkout.
