Campground Reviews

Jun 07, 2021
The whole family had a great time. The kids love the pool and the playground and the ice cream social. Campground was very clean very nice. the staff was outstanding. We really enjoyed staying at the Chicago northwest KOA. It's hard to put into words how wonderful it was to stay at the Chicago northwest KOA.

I needed a few days to relax and recharge and that's exactly what I got at this KOA. It had been a number of years since my last visit and they've made many improvements and additions! Every staff member I encountered was helpful. My tent site was great and I enjoyed my walk on the walking path. I'll definitely be back to this KOA!

Great customer service, I loved that they came to your campsite to see what you needed, so convenient. Loved all the activities and amenities too, great for my family and kids!

Great place, well-organized, lots of activities. Very attentive staff. Would give it 5 stars if sites were not so close together.

Safe, clean & well-managed KOA. Nice mix of sunny and shady sites.

Shower water was slimy. Owner rude. Claims to be "pet friendly". Got premium site with dog fence. Received two texts and harassed by the owner during one day for the dog barking to much. That's what dog's do! Sites on top of each other right off highway. Did not feel like camping AT all. kids activities and those that ran them were the only thing well done.

Overnight stay was very nice. Interesting mix of sites including ones for camper traveling with dogs that included a fenced in area at the site.

We like to stay at this beautiful campground with our granddaughter. It's close to home and there is a lot for young kids and "old" folks to do. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Great Experience!

I just think it's so run down, especially the mini golf, I mean of course it needs to be free, because I would be so embarrassed that people even have to golf on that! Fix it up! Plus you have a theater, but don't actually use it as a theater anymore! Also on the RV sites, it's really disgusting that your neighbors sewer hook up has to be right under and next to your picnic table! Bad set up!

Nice site. Best clean shower house. Very curtious staff.

I would have given 5 stars except for the poor water pressure. I've stayed here a number of times and pressure is usually better. I had to revert to my tank and pump to have enough pressure to shower. Wonder if there were well or pump problems. Everything else was great, check-in was very easy. They just handed us an envelope with everything we needed. The site was good, long and level.

Very nice stay. Staff very welcoming. Only thing is I think the wood was too expensive and burned to quickly.

Clean, friendly, and there is always a KOA member who is willing to help or have a conversation with.

Kid friendly place that we really appreciated! The Bears playground is perfect for young children. The activities were really fun and I appreciated that schedule to keep our family entertained as well as a good busy. The mini golf needs updating however that was our young children’s first time experience and they had a lot of fun! Your bathrooms and showers are clean, thank you!

I was worried my kids would be bored with camping. There was SO much to do they didn't want to leave. The place was clean and the staff was friendly. We will definitely be back.

1.-Llegamos el pasado viernes, la noche estubo muy fria y al tratar de conectar un calenton electrico boto el breaker y nos quedamos sin luz y sin calenton toda la noche. 2.- El agua de la alberca extremadamente fria. 3.- El sitio para acampar muy pequeño 4,- Faltan atracciones para jovenes adolecentes.

We stayed due to a family member graduating or we would have left early. Water was FILTHY, smelly, and not adequate for use. Sites close together and not big rig friendly as they had rocks and light posts throughout. We also expected the grounds to be better maintained for the price paid. All activity areas were in disrepair. Bounce pillow had hole, trash and weeds throughout the grounds.

Neat and quiet campground. Staff kind and helpful. Love the swings on the sites! We stayed here in a 5th wheel in a pull through full hook up spot.

We pulled out early because the weather turned cold and windy. The staff was great. The setting is okay - nothing spectacular.

Nice folks but needs updating badly.

We had an RV problem and the KOA staff were very helpful by lending us a ladder to get on the RV roof.

Facilities were clean and campground was perfect, we had to leave earlier than expected because the weather turned so cold and they were very accommodating to that. We will definitely be back!

Peacefull!well ran amid COVID restrictions. Well maintained. The WiFi signal was weak. Need to work on that especially since no cable. Had to stream off my phone.

When I went, it was a very quiet place. I stayed there at a tent site, in my truck bed tent, with my dog. It was a fantastic stay. I look forward to going back again with my kids and wife, since there were a lot of activities that would keep my kids entertained. I would consider this to be a low key spot that would be excellent for stopping near Chicago, but not in Chicago.

The customer service was great. Bathrooms were clean. The only negative was the grass could of been cut before the stay. It was a little long. We would stay again for sure.

Lovely rural Chicago stay!

Nice pretty well kept campground. Grass was awfully long, could have been cut before we arrived at 6PM. Toilet seat in mens bathroom that is away from main building needs to be secured down. It can slide over when sitting on it. All other aspects of the campground were very nice. It was nice to have plenty of hooks and a seat in the greatly appreciated independent shower facilities.

We love coming here and it’s a nice easy short drive from home. Staff is friendly. Our only complaint is every time we’ve come the grass is way too long.
May 25, 2021
Over priced and not very accommodating. Will not be using this campground again.

Wonderful facility!
May 24, 2021
Nice facility and great employees. Had a very loud group across the road until late at night both nights of our stay. Also several people used our site to cut through to bath house and open field by the prarie area. Otherwise a 5 star rating would have been given. We'll definitely be back.

We had a good time, the campgrounds were nice and very cleaned, very friendly people.

Friendly, small campground. As always, too expensive for what you get because it is a KOA. Nice little trails to walk behind the dog park.

Clean, well organized, and just a great time the entire weekend. Especially thanks for the assistance in leading me to my campsite when I first arrived, there was no way I would have figured it out on my own since I arrived just after dusk. Thanks again for a great weekend!!
