What a WONDERFUL find along our trip!! This campground is a new KOA Journey, and you can tell the…read moreowners are VERY proud of their property! I was especially impressed with their mens room bath and shower! My wife and I were on the road for 28 days and THIS was the cleanest and largest shower I had seen after traveling 6600 miles. We discovered that KOA's have three levels: Journey, Holiday, & Resort. My wife and I enjoyed this Journey as it is the closest to "real camping" with just enough to relax without feeling like you're in some sort of "Disney Resort". I would highly recommend this campground and will stay here again if I ever get the chance!!

Review Visit: October 14th, 2015…read more First impressions are hard to change... If you live in Illinois at all, you know of the budget cuts, budget cuts, tax increases, budget cuts. Jubilee College State Park is one of those that has been hit by budget cuts. Decided to check this place and Jubilee Cafe out in the same day. My first time there, I encountered a few areas that were closed due to inadequate staffing. So a lot of places have become overgrown and broken down. This state park is beautiful and it's a shame that it is in such a bad shape. While looking up some info on it to write this short blog, it appears that after 3 years they finally have a (volunteer?) Park Ranger and a volunteer group to help clean the place up and make it usable. Having never been here, I tried quite a few different places that I thought were openings to go hiking, but I really never could tell what was what since everything was overgrown. Now if this volunteer group is helping out and making the place a bit friendlier, I would love to go back and check it out again. Maybe even update this blog post. I just hope I don't have to mark it 'Closed'. It fills me with such sorrow that beautiful recreational places like these are cut short on budgets and fall into disuse. I won't get into politics, but I hope they figure something out and restore this park and all the other closed/understaffed to their rightful natural beauty.

Shared the trail with a few bikers but the trail has a great way of telling you what ways to go. I can't remember the days but on certain days you go one way & then another way on the other days.

The boardwalk is a lot older and more worn now, but it's still nice to stop, and there's a vantage point to look out on the river. I used to see beaver activity around the boardwalk, but not recently. The marina also of course offers a place to launch your boat for a fee, boat storage, RV storage and they do offer camping. I believe the three shed/cabins added several years ago are available for rent as well. When we drove through on our most recent visit, they'd added some beach camp sites with power. There's a playground, fire pits for the campsites and picnic tables.

It was 15$ a night, there's a fire ring, tables, and very clean bathrooms/showers. If you have a primitive spot and you can't find a spot #, you can just set up in an open spot on the beach. It's a 2 min drive to a gas station/liquor store and 10 mins away from walmart. Such a cool campground!
