Description

Spend the night at Des Plaines Campground, a tranquil setting marked by flowing rivers and natural prairie land.

Whether you are training your animal or just spectating, it’s not something you encounter every day. These Class C sites are open from mid-April to mid-October (weather permitting).

Here's a review from another site posted August 2015: This campground is on a very expansive lot. It's close to the river, but features plenty of hiking and water trails throughout. Camping is decent, but it's nearby a hunting area and boating docks, so a constant stream of traffic and noise awaits you on weekends. Overall, I liked it, but had slightly higher hopes for solitude
