Personal Note From Owners
There are 50 beautiful acres of trees amid the back roads of America.  On the grounds is a lake for fishing or you can take a walk over to the beach.  Children can enjoy going to the playground or game room.  Within the game room is an area to sit and relax with a book.  We have a wonderful selection for every type reader.  Take a moment to sit by the fire and look at all the stary shapes sparkling in the sky at night.
The campground is located only 30 miles from the quad cities with entertainment for all ages: Riverboat Casino's-John O'Donnell Stadium-Rock Island Arsenal Museum.  Maybe you would prefer to see Historic Bishop Hill.  The children may like to visit the Niabi Zoo or the Childrens Museum!
Open from mid-April through mid-October.
