One of the worst kept KOA's we have been to. Grass & trees need to be trimmed. Weeds need to be pulled. Gravel needs to be added. The water smell is awful! We questioned how safe the water could be as the property is right next to the landfill/dump. Something should be done about the water smell.....it is terrible! Bathroom are old. Everything needs an update. The staff was very friendly.

It was a very good stay. We had site 42 and thought it was a little small but not awfully small.It would be a small site if you had small children.

Great, friendly staff. A nice park where everything at the campsite worked as expected. I did not use the bathhouse so I can’t speak to their condition.

Too close to long termers! Site really unlevel. This is an old park and overpriced as such!

Paw pen site B13 is a dog palace! We had an incredible stay. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. All areas clean and tidy and level sites as expected in KOA. The most extensive food service I’ve seen at a KOA. Thank you for an incredible weekend! Campers be sure to try one of “pull start fire” starters. The easiest way to start a fire ever!

Your staff went above and beyond the call of duty. My awning collapsed during the night, and I wouldn't have been able to go anywhere without repairs. Your gentleman staff member helped me stabilized it, and temporarily repair it, and I was able to drive home where I could get a permanent repair. His help was greatly appreciated.

Overall the place was nice and the staff was nice but our site was narrow. There plenty of other spaces that had more room and we probably wouldn’t have had another camper right next to us.

Convenient location. Easy access. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

We like this campground, quiet & we'll kept. We've stayed here a few times before. They've added the pizza & ice cream, recently. We had pizza delivered to our campsite, & it was pretty good.

It was absolutely fantastic!! We were in site 80, a paw pen site. It was probably the best site we have ever stayed anywhere at. The patio fenced in pen was like a back yard. Big tree in the middle with a cement patio, gas grill, fire pit, bench and table with umbrella and four chairs. The sewer was basically out of sight with flowers and greens planted to hide it. Just overall, fantastic!

Very average. Staff was really nice. Park needed mowed and looked over grown. It says it’s a holiday park but I think it is classified wrong.

I would love to give KOA/Kankakee a much higher rating, but the WATER we used for 5 days was just HORRIBLE! It smelled so badly, my entire Motorhome had that same awful odor. Using “well water” seems outdated in the 21st Century, but there should be some type of improvement in the Kankakee Water System. Other than the awful water situation, the staff was extremely welcoming, delightful & helpf

It really is peaceful & quiet at Kankakee South KOA! I just wish there were more things to do right on the campground! We had business to tend to in Bourbonnais so it was nice to return to the campground & just chill!

The young lady that greeted us and took us to our campsite was very friendly. Campsite was level and clean. One suggestion: we camp with our dogs and would have really liked the dog park area to be illuminated at night. The dog park looked great but was very dark at night. Maybe a light pole at a distance from the dog park to keep bugs away but close enough to provide some light. Thank you.

Great spot to park your RV while visiting Chicago.

The site was large and flat with a concrete patio and fire pit. All services. The staff are always so friendly and helpful. The Hunts pizza and wings make dinner a breeze!! Oh, and early check in, Yaaaa. My husband got a cup of coffee before we left, so he was very happy �

I have stayed there several times . This time the cabin L1 had a dirty floor. Also the fire put area needs more gravel. The grill should be cleaned after each guest leaves . I always bring a grill brush . One screen by the bunks is bent so I didn’t open the window. I think the play area needs some rubber chips too. Also blow off the patio area would be nice. Game room nice finally fixed air hock

Just an overnight. Very friendly - actually picked up trash bag on site. Quiet. Lots of grass. Nice options for dogs and "buddy" camping.

The staff is super friendly and helpful. The site we had was big and the layout of the campground is great because although it was pretty full, it was quiet and spread out in a way that wasn't just straight rows of RV, crammed in together. We would definitely stay again, and recommend to other.

Great place to stay. Young man at the desk...great personality! Madison went above and beyond to solve our neighbors problems at 8:00 pm. Another young man got us firewood after closing. Great staff!!

The pull thru site #73 was/is nowhere close to being level so even with front tires 9" off the ground I could not level (worst pitch I've ever seen). The sewer connection point was in a terrible location at the entrance of the site, not in the middle (I needed 45' of hose and typically use 15') and the water pressure was very low.

It's a very nice campground but if you are put near the road it sucks. The traffic noise is so load you can't have a conversation outside on your site. We won't be back.

This is a great campground managed by Rob and his team; great facilities and environment. Even Rob drives a tractor carrying children around the campground for fun! We planted a tree as part of our adventure in the US and even Rob made a donation and we are using it to buy the tree for the next state that we visit ( Michigan). Very grateful Rob!! Pleasure to meet you

We are so impressed with this campground. It was quiet and peaceful and we enjoyed our stay. Most especially we loved the paw pen campsite!!! Very convenient and safe for our dogs

Couldn't have asked for a better place out in the country! Rae and Vincent, (actually all staff) were on top of things and got us to our site and answered the questions we had. Being able to have a Gluten-free pizza upon arrival was fantastic, didn't have to cook after getting set up, YUM, even delivered to our site HOT! The only negative is not being able to get a itemized bill at checkout...

This campground right off I-57 and highway 52 just south of chicago. As an RVer, I avoid major cities and even interstates so this KOA perfectly situated between all the above mentioned. Restrooms/showers were very clean and well kept. Gravel sites were pretty level. And guest services was friendly and hospitable, especially accommodating at the end of their season since I was there due to camper van troubles and going back and forth to the mechanic.
