Great location. The attendants were right there to help out when we arrived quite late. That's awesome! Clean bathrooms and camp site.

The staff were very pleasant and accommodating. Initially we were on a site literally feet groom the highway, which was under construction, with traffic driving on the rumble strips. The graciously moved is too one of their sites across the street which was very pleasant. Staff here were great.

It was a nice, quiet stay. My dad loved the fat, friendly bathrooms at the ATL house.

I-75 traffic noise is over the top. There’s not a level site in the place.

We would go back, it was a little close to the interstate, but it a very cute campground

Stayed in site #65 with our 42' fiver. Gravel site with nice patio area overlooking pond. Site when empty appears to serve as drive through for other sites site was not level, wheels actual came off ground to level. We had to set blocks under wheels to rest on. Black water stub was higher than normal and would not drain rig properly, even with our sloping bridge for drain hose.

let me start with saying the people that work here were very nice. that is why it got 2 stars. beyond that this place is so run down. the bath house on one side the roof leaked directly over the toilet. the other side had black mold at the entrance to the shower. the playground equipment was old and not well maintained. the dog run was tiny and not well taken care of

I will definitely come back. This was always our ten . But 1 problem is full timers are using dog area and not cleaning up after their dogs. Tried using dog area it was full of poop, never before. Next morning saw 2 different families from full time area put their dogs in there and never clean up. So won't use the dog area there.

Perfect over night next to the highway. We arrived late after dark. A very kind staff member lead us to our camp spot so it was easy to get settled in for the night.

The staff were wonderful. Very friendly and helpful. After getting set up they came to our site and asked if we needed anything. He came back later to tell us a storm was heading our way and where to go for shelter if needed. Sites are good sized with plenty of trees. We were on the far side of the pond so road noise was not a problem. Restroom were clean.

Friendly staff. Clean facilities. Convenient to interstate. Level site.
Mar 13, 2026
Staff is great and the sites are nice. The one negative is proximity to the interstate - traffic is constant and there's really no spot that isn't in the noise zone. It's convenient to the highway so makes a good overnight, it's just not conducive to multiple nights.
Mar 12, 2026
Always a good place to stay with cleanliness

Booked this spot for an overnight when traveling from Florida to Chicago. Owners were great and called me with instructions on my site and how to find it since I was coming in well after regular check in time. Pull through site was huge and easy hook ups for a quick 6hrs of sleep. Location was perfect for travel on 57, less than 2miles from exit/entrance ramp and food/fuel options right there.

Always our choice for an overnight when we travel to Florida twice a year. Friendly owner, well kept and hookups are always working. Price is right too!

Appreciated the newer Camp K9 as our Aussie enjoyed it! Pizza was very good too along with pulled pork Nachos. Great for overnight stay where I did not have to cook anything

Friendly people. Nice place. First time we stayed we were by the pond and it was awesome. Second time we ended up by the interstate. Too much noise!

Our stay @ Benton Illinois KOA was wonderful! Karen (the manager) was the best! She got us through a small concern upon arrival, after a long travel day. She was extremely caring, kind & compassionate! Karen was an absolute blessing to us!! The bathrooms were very clean & warm after a long frigid day. Would recommend Benton KOA to all our traveling friends & family.

No one on duty when we arrived prior to 5:00. There were no lights near the gravel drive to campsite and the walk to the restroom/shower was a bit hard to navigate. The bathrooms and showers were very nice and clean.

easy on and off the interstate and good location for overnight stop or local sight seeing/

Keith, kudos to you! You got us the space we needed and then some. We were in a 26' Uhaul and pulling a vehicle on a trailer from across the country, thank you again for the hospitality and kindness sir. Would recommend your KOA to anyone that needs a great space to relax or enjoy the recreation around the area
