We absolutely loved it here and can’t wait to return. The hosts were amazing and the cabin was perfect. So peaceful out there. I have no complaints at all!

We always stay the Benton KOA when we come to Southern Illinois to visit family. The cabin we rent is always clean and comfy. The staff are always super friendly!

The campground was nice for a one-night stay heading south. The host was kind enough to let me stay in a deluxe Kamper Kabin and park my small trailer. This campground is right on the freeway, heard train noise and there is an airstrip nearby. Everything you need was in town. Kabin was very clean, bed was comfy. Will be back if I'm in that neck of the woods again. Thank you.

The new section is very nice. We loved the cabin. Flat ground, so no hiking uphill to use restrooms and showers like the older section. Great play area including ladder toss and cornhole. Restrooms are large with plenty of hooks plus a bench for your clothes and towels. Bad thing is every time someone showers, water goes all over the floor and up to the toilet.

Cable tv did not work at all in cabin 2. No response from staff when I left a message about it. When I asked in person the next morning, they said, “That’s how cable TV is in remote areas.”

We stayed in a deluxe cabin. Everything was very clean. Large bathroom. Beds were comfortable. Easy check in and friendly staff. Great location. Would definitely stay here again.

Well run and friendly staff. Only thing was the bathrooms and showers are too far from some of the cabins.

The deluxe cabin was GREAT!! To look out the front door at the little lake was SO NICE! The owners were very nice too! I enjoyed my 2 night stay very much! The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because I was alone and I like it when campgrounds have gates to use a card to get in, for safety. BUT I felt safe while I was there! Nice camp store too.

It’s come a long way, but still has a long way to go! The kabin we stayed in the microwave and fridge blocked the a/c unit and we were so miserable! I wish the path to the bathroom had more light especially with the bunnies running around, I don’t know about you, but when walking in the dark my senses are heightened - getting a fright isn’t good for a bad heart! Other than that - it was ok.

Beautiful outdoors!

It rained most of the time we were there but still had a great time. Everyone working there was very friendly.

Clean and enjoyable, host was amazingly courteous and polite. We felt appreciated to have stayed.

The owner and staff are always welcoming. Used to stay in our camper, but sold it a few years ago. This was the first time staying in a cabin. Will definitely do it again.

We are used to tent camping. With the heat, we opted for an air-conditioned cabin. It was an excellent choice, as we were able to get most of the usual camping experience without too much overheating. Everyone was friendly & everything was clean. The pool was nice. Thank you!

Excellent staff. We had a very late arrival and were taken very well care of.

The cabin was on the small side for what we payed and didn't include linens or towels. The lake was nice as was the outdoor swing and firepit. It was okay but, in my opinion a little pricey for what we got.
Jul 13, 2021
Was able to make a late arrival since we had some car issues, which was a plus. When we arrived the cabin was filthy and covered in animal hair. The frame of the bed all around the mattress was covered in animal hair and lots of little specks, pet dander, and crumbs. I was honestly a little worried about getting bed bugs or lice, but luckily couldn't find anything at least with the naked eye.

We had Cabin 5. Love it. We've been members of KOA for years. Love Benton's site. Love the area, the staff and the owner(s) Karen (Walt). Got to know them and their children. Its our 2nd home! Never had a problem ever!!

Very friendly staff and the pool was really clean and nice. Our camper cabin look like it had some carpenter bees that were doing a number inside and outside. When I was sleeping noticed three bugs and spiders crawling on me.

Pond is beautiful. Bathrooms are far from any cabins. Had a dead mouse under the bank bed and called while the office with closed with no call back. Cabin smelled like dead mice and ruined all of our blankets and pillows. Had to wash everything.

Is there a better place to stay the night than KOA? Nope. And this one's really good. Always love it.

We stayed for one night while passing through. The campground and spots were very easy to get in and out of. The lady in the office was very nice. She upgraded us to a pond front site for no charge which was great bc it was really close to the playground.
