What Guests Are Saying
Benton KOA offers a welcoming and helpful staff, making it a great choice for first-time campers. The campsite is clean, well-maintained, and conveniently located near the interstate, with level RV sites and a well-stocked camp store. However, some guests noted that the highway noise can be quite loud, particularly on the highway-side sites, and the restroom facilities could use improvement for the price.

Nice staff. Campsite highway noise is extremely loud if you are on the highway side. We had a sound machine and it did nothing to block the noise, but only passed through for a one night stay.

As a First time camper they made my experience great. I have been wanting a Camper for a very long time I work for the Rail Road and got tired of the Hotel rooms. For the first time in 24 years of working and traveling I felt like I was home away from home. They was very helpful and made my stay there very good and was so helpful with telling ne things about my new Camper that I didn't even know. I mean her husband guided me to help me back it up in a spot. Thanks KoA of Benton ills.

We got in around 11pm last night and were met by a worker who immediately helped us get the after hours check in filled out…. And then courteously guided us to our site and talked us through the amenities. Very appreciative of the kind help. The campsite/rv site is very nice. Little patio. Very clean.
Only drawback would be that it is right on the interstate… so lots of vehicle noise/some sores are a little bit too close for my comfort…. But that is part of “just off the route” camping…. I will definitely be staying again.
(Only about a mile off of I57… not hard to get to at all).

The staff are friendly and helpful, the site is level and it has all the hook-ups needed, but for $65 I expected nicer restrooms. That's the only reason I took off 2 stars. We stayed on the pond side in order to be away from highway noise, which costs more, but the restrooms and shower are way more rustic than I expected.

A very nice rv park. Shady and nicely laid out Really convenient to the interstate. Our site was completely level. There is no need to level. Staff was among the most welcoming and helpful. Well stocked camp store. Bath and showers clean and in great repair. We recommend Benton KOA Journey
