I-55 RV Park & Campground

20 RV Sites

I-55 RV Park & Campground in Edwardsville, Illinois, offers 20 full-hookup RV sites with water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp service, sized for rigs to 74 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, directly off I-55 at Exit 23. The combination of 74-foot capacity and immediate interstate access is the draw for travelers crossing the St. Louis metro. Twenty sites carry full hookups on 20, 30, and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 74 feet. Water, sewer, and electric run to every site. The big-rig-friendly layout means long coaches can arrive and depart without a difficult approach, and the pull-through sites let an overnight guest stop without unhitching — a practical advantage over St. Louis-area campgrounds at more complicated addresses. Pets are welcome. The park is deliberately simple, and the site itself is the amenity. There is no resort programming here; the value is a clean full-hookup site with easy on-and-off access and a quiet setting despite the highway proximity. That quiet is a design outcome rather than luck — the campground is laid out so the interstate noise and light stay off the sites. Guests wanting extensive amenities should look elsewhere; guests wanting a straightforward, well-run overnight with full hookups will find exactly that. Edwardsville sits on the Illinois side of the Mississippi in Madison County's Metro East, which gives guests the full St. Louis day-trip range without Missouri-side pricing and weekend availability pressure. Cahokia Mounds, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the most significant prehistoric archaeological site in North America, is five miles south. The Gateway Arch, the nationally ranked museums, Cardinals baseball, Blues hockey, St. Louis City soccer, World Wide Technology Raceway, and area college campuses are all within easy reach. The park operates year-round on the I-55 corridor. Event weekends in St. Louis and summer travel drive the heaviest demand — with 20 sites, reserve ahead when a major game or race is scheduled.
