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.

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...

I have some friendly advice that I believe can make Kankakee KOA even better. Saturdays planned activities were spot on but on Sunday there was no crafts or other actual activities scheduled for the kids. If funds allow a jump pillow would be lovely for kids in case it’s too cold to swim. Tropical birds that wake people up should not be let loose. Just like roosters would not be allowed.

Well kept grounds, very friendly staff, and nice amenities. Only complaint that isn't even a big deal was the fact they came to the truck to greet us upon arrival. Our preference is to go into the store upon arrival so we can check things out.

E had a wonderful stay.

The only issue was the length from the camper to the sewer plug. I looked around and my site was the only one that had a long line. The the longest than any other camp site I have had over my decades of camping. Other than that everything worked. Friendly staff. And meals delivered to site.

It's always a pleasure staying at kankakee south koa!

Excellent staff at this location that tries to help in any way possible. Only hiccup are all the acorns that covered the cement patio on arrival. I understand it's very difficult to keep up with nature, but paying a premium for a deluxe site and it's like walking on marbles is dangerous and frustrating on arrival. Cleaning the site is not the first thing I want to do.

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!
