Very nice KOA, big sites with concrete slab patio, fire pit and swing. Staff was very friendly, took you to your site and made sure you were satisfied with the choice. Price was a little on the high side compared to other KOAs, but definaiely one that we will stop at again.

We only stated 1 night but we will be back. Camp was clean and had plenty to keep kids occupied.

The Kankakee KOA South was the perfect place to rest our heads after driving almost 500 miles in one day. We were greeted by lady who took the time to escort us to our site which ended up being to short so she then escorted us to a more suitable longer site. That pull thru site was long enough where we did not have to unhook our 35' 5th wheel. Thank you! We highly recommend the Kankakee KOA SO

Great place just wish something could be done about the water.

Very nice.

The only 2 things I would say that could’ve improved my experience is - the tv wi fi connection seemed poor. Continuously kept buffering. - an in room coffee maker would’ve helped. Overall loved it.

Whole campground is clean and quiet. 2 negative things are quality in water smells very bad like rotten eggs. Other is campsites are a little too close together and water/sewer connections are too far away from where they should be

The older section the sites were SO close and felt more like a state park. The back section was amazing. We had B2 amd LOVED it.

Clean and friendly. Great customer service and even the other campers were terrifically friendly. My only suggestion is that the dryers should have an option for adding a quarter at a time for a little more drying of some items.....

Everyone is always so friendly. The staff go out of their way to help you or service you. It’s very welcoming environment.

We asked for satellite friendly and big rig site, put in a back-in site that satellite was blocked by huge trees. Site was large enough for our rig and had a nice patio and swing. getting out of campground was near impossible, large rocks placed around curve, could not clear with our 40 foot fifth wheel. Had to ask long term resident to move his vehicle and then do multiple backup/foward maneuvers

Very satisfied with the park. Only negative is the water smell, taste, and pressure. After our three nights we needed to leave.

Stay was ok, but the sign on the bathhouse door bothered me. It stated that if you had an rv or were staying in a cabin, please leave the restrooms for other campers. I feel that we all pay and should be able to use all the facilities. Some of us prefer to shower in the bathhouse. Also, the showers are in need of an update, new tiles and a less slippery surface, my opinion.

We are all trying to do our part to stop the spread Covid. Our sign is trying to limit the use of the bathrooms to help with our efforts. This does not mean that they cannot be used by all.

Small but quiet & clean campground with fantastic hosts. We LOVE the wagon rides, duck race, and scavenger hunt for the kids. Everyone at the front desk is friendly and helpful. My kids enjoy the game room, playground, and pool. This is our 3rd Labor Day at Kankakee South KOA and it's definitely a family tradition now.

We had a great time here. There were duck races, scavenger hunt for the kids, wagon rides, pool and a nice little playground. The staff was so kind and great with the kids. I will say the game room is a bit outdated and lacking but none the less the kids still had fun. We will definitely be returning, if not this season, next for sure!

Great campground! Owners and staff are so nice! We loved our stay and will be back end of October!

All employees were top notch in their customer service. There were two major negative aspects of our stay. The ground outside our camper door was all dirt and that became very messy when it rained. Our camper is a mess. Also the game room is not up to par. Many games were out of order. The shuffle board table was unable to use Because of the lack of sand.

The employees and hosts were very nice, prompt and accommodating. My son and I had an amazing time. We will definitely be returning. Very clean pool and bathrooms. Showers never ran out of hot water. Plenty of kids around which was awesome because my son is an only child. Great activities for the kids. Friendly campers. The entire experience was perfect. Thank you all for the amazing experience!!

Difficult to get to as it seems to be in the middle of nowhere. Not great for a quick overnight stay. The campground is nice and so are the staff members.

The campground is 3 miles off I57. GPS however sometimes takes you through the more rural areas.

Kankakee South KOA is nestled in a beautiful, quiet country setting. The RV sites are shaded, large and pull through. The full service cabins are clean and spacious, with a large refrigerator and microwave, Weber grill and patio set to enjoy the outdoor setting. Just over an hour to enjoy downtown Chicago, and just 15 miles from the State Park. We will definitely be returning! Thank you!

Very clean. Staff was friendly and helpful. Site was level and had enough room between sites. Other campers were friendly and courteous. This was our third time here this year and they all have bee good experiences.

Campground staff was great. Difficult to navigate in the dark. Mosquitoes were bad while we were setting up. Left our water pressure regular on the site water hookup in error.

One quick night on our way home. The staff was extremely pleasant and helpful and the campground was clean and well maintained. We will definitely stay again!

Best place to camp that's not super far from the suburbs, I've been coming here with a large group for over 15 years and it gets better each year. Lots of memories to be made. Owner and staff are amazing

This is by far the best campground to do Halloween at! They go above and beyond. Kids absolutely love it and so do the adults!
