Love this campground. As a side note - when camping here on a full service site, the seer hook ups usually require extra length to reach the camper.

First visit. Was very pleased with the camp ground. 50 amp at each spot, full hookups for rv's. Very friendly camp host. Lithia Springs Marina a real plus. Very nice swim beach. The campsites are well laid out, some are paved most are nice gravel.

My wife and I have stayed at this location several times this year. We have also visited many other COE campgrounds at all three lakes in central Illinois. All locations were good but the Lithia Springs Campground is the very best. Everything is always neat, clean and mowed. The camp host -Debbie and her husband are always cheerful and ready to help any guest. They do a fantastic job. Thanks
