5.04 reviews
Camp Lakewood Campground in Effingham, Illinois, offers 52 RV sites and three tent sites within a mile of both I-70 and I-57, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 120 feet. Premium pull-through categories, including one with a patio, join full-hookup and water-and-electric back-in tiers, with an outdoor pool, boat ramp, and game room. Fifty-two sites span back-in 30-amp, back-in 30/50-amp, back-in water-and-electric, premium pull-thru, premium pull-thru with patio, and pull-thru 30/50-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 120 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. One hundred twenty feet is among the most generous capacities anywhere and accommodates anything on the road. Confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. Three tent sites round out the lodging. A laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. If you arrive after the office closes with a reservation, your name will be on an envelope with your site details. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a boat ramp for canoeing, kayaking, and fishing, and a game room, playground, and swimming filling the rest. Pets are welcome. Effingham is the crossroads city of downstate Illinois, where I-70 and I-57 meet — one of the most convenient overnight stops in the Midwest. Demand tracks interstate traffic rather than a season. Reserve ahead for holiday travel periods.

Serene setting, playground for kids with a variety of equipment and successful fishing for the family. We ordered their homemade pizza and it was good. But, the best part was the spa like restrooms! A true rare find when traveling. A must stay and must return.

Very accommodating after I flubbed my reservation. Pull thru site was level. Hookups were easy access and didn't need to unhitch the truck. Loved the value for the price!

Inside that envelope, you will find the map with all the details you need to access your reserved site. If you arrive without a reservation after the office closes, there will be maps next to the front door that has the available sites on them and how to get to them. Simply choose one, settle in for the night at your chosen site, and in the morning, we will check you in and handle the registration section then.
