Rob and his staff are the best! Great campground for family fun.

We have come here almost yearly. It is obvious the owners care and have invested a lot of energy in improving on an already good experience.

We enjoyed all of the Halloween festivities.

Spooky, scary skeletons! Another awesome Halloween camping weekend. Rob and all of his staff go above and beyond to make any weekend special but their Halloween events take first place! As always there were site escorts, wood and ice delivery, trash pick up. They now have pizza and other food items.

AWESOME!! This park was great! Very clean & well kept grounds & facilities. Easy to get into & out of the park. Their food to order was well cooked & tasty. Staff were so friendly and helpful. I definitely would stay again & recommend to anyone.

Best KOA we have stayed at. The Halloween activities were amazing. My whole family loved the funhouse and light show. So much thought was put into the activities. Very nice KOA. We will definitely be returning.

The stay was very nice and the cabin we were in was quite nice, could have had a Kreig coffee maker, but it was fine as we only stayed with you one night on our journey. Thank you for a nice place and a wonderful setting.

They have 3 dog pen sites. We were able to switch over to one of them and our dogs loved it. They sat outside all day and I knew they would be safe. The fire pit, BBQ, table and chairs were all inside the fenced in site so we could all enjoy the outdoors together �ϋ� �

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.
Sep 15, 2025
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.

Every thing was good .Had a nice time.Great job .

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 people there are very courteous and friendly. We really enjoyed their service and loved the full service for trailering. Thank you and keep it up!

The handicap site was perfect! The staff was friendly and very helpful! Definitely stay there when I drive back next year from Arizona!�ϋ�

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.

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!
