We've stayed here three times now, always in October. The campground is very nice and clean. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They do a fantastic job on their Halloween festivities. The grandkids love it. Highly recommend!!

Rob and Julie’s staff are second to none. They are always there to help and are immediately receptive to camper’s needs or requests. This KOA is quiet, comfortable Rob can always be seen out working or “mingling” with the campers. Rob also serves up a GREAT pizza!!

Close to Chicago and close enough to the highway for an overnight stop, this is our go-to campground for short getaways. The grounds are clean and well maintained and the store is stocked with the essentials. The Staff are helpful and nice. Any time of the year has busy weekend activities for the kids. Check out this campground.

Camping at the KOA is one of my favorite places to be! The staff is always so nice, the bathrooms are always clean, and my campsite is always well maintained. Huge plus for this stay was that it was their Halloween stay and they put on a great light show and haunted fun house. This was our 1st Halloween there and we will definitely be back next year.

We recently stayed for the first time during Halloween weekend. It was so much fun, and we felt like we were in a Netflix movie. Helpful staff, fun for the kids and nicely put together campground and maintenance.

The Deluxe Cabin was cozy and clean. Nice big TV set also. Not one but 2 swing benches, one on the porch and one by the fire pit! Huge Weber gas grill too. Very quiet and lots of different bird species you like that sort of thing. This was my 4th time here and we will be back for sure! Staff was helpful, friendly and happy. Highly recommended !!!

Very low water pressure. The dog park had not been picked up by other dog owners or the park staff didn't check and clean up.

We were only at Kankakee South KOA one night, but we liked the campground setting and amenities. Even as important, the staff was more than accommodating, friendly. We were arriving 4 hours later than expected. Called them. They assured us that we would be taken care of even after the store hours closed. This was more than expected, as we did not get to pull in until after dark.

We had a great weekend with our friends and family. The staff is always so helpful and kind. Haunted house perfect for kids. This has been our 3rd annual Halloween weekend staying at your campground and we are booked for next year as well. Thanks for making great memories for us.

I loved everything about the stay and all the activities! Also pizza was and delicious!!Only issue is our site was on a slight hill so it was hard to drain our camper. Other than that always a wonderful experience!

A halloween weekend, the weather was perfect, the activities were great, the camp spot not so much, we had 4 grandkids with us, it was a corner spot and the fire pit was right on the corner and the traffic was crazy going around it, it's a blind spot for golf carts(workers too), campers, and cars. Very nerve racking to have kids on that spot, other spots in the past great! Spot 103

We stayed for the Halloween campout and they did a fantastic job of organizing and communicating. The staff is absolutely fantastic! My only complaint would be the sites are very close, and the cinders or gravel are dusty and hard to walk on. We already booked for next year!

From the moment you are greeted at the door upon arrival, the staff, Jessica and Madison, made you feel at home. Prompt, professional service, the best service I have seen at a KOA thus far. They escort you to your accommodations and even deliver Hunts Bros pizza and wings to your location if you want it! All you have to do is text the number that texts you welcoming you to the grounds and order what you want. The wings were delish! The cabin I stayed in was wonderful! They even had linens on the bed with pillowcases and towels in the bathroom for us. Very clean, very comfortable! Bonus, the A/C unit works tremendously well and kept us nice and cool. There were some tornado warnings throughout the evening but the owner lives on site and makes sure everyone on the campground is aware of the situations via a group text and radio communication with their staff. This text does not allow you to see other phone numbers and vice versa. It was very comforting to have that resource during the evening. The staff say that the owner is so kind and generous and it really is showcased in the customer service and care that goes into managing and maintaining such a beautiful location. Our doggo enjoyed the dog run, tucked away in the back of the location, away from any road, so he wasn't getting distracted left and right. If you know, you know hah. Bonus fire hydrant for those city dogs that love them. :) All in all, please stay here. It is the quietest KOA I have stayed at but just a hop, skip and jump over to a Loves gas station and some early morning coffee drive thrus for the road warriors. Thank you Kankakee KOA, y'all are rock stars and I will most definitely be staying here again on my next cross country trek! 💪😍 PS: ignore my luggage sprawled all over the room 🤣

What a great campground! The team was super helpful. Madison came out to meet us right as we pulled in, didn't even have to get out of our rv! Then she showed us the route to our site. They even have food on site! Alice made a delicious pizza dinner and delivered it right to our site! The grounds are beautifully maintained, nice level sites. They popped popcorn and texted everyone staying that night to come watch a movie! Highly recommend!
