NorthWoods RV Resort

100 RV Sites

NorthWoods RV Resort in Garden Prairie, Illinois, offers 100 full-hookup premium pull-through RV sites on the Kishwaukee River with 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet. An outdoor pool, spa, clubhouse, game room, and jumping pillow serve a riverside retreat between Chicago and Rockford. One hundred sites are premium pull-through throughout, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 50-amp, sized to 50 feet. A single-category, all-pull-through layout means no backing at any site and no guessing about what you are booking — every guest gets the same premium spec. Service is 50-amp, so bring an adapter if your rig runs 30. A laundry and propane fills handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and spa anchor the property, with inflatable water toys and a jumping pillow for children. A clubhouse, game room, billiards, basketball, horseshoes, playground, and snack bar fill the grounds, with fishing on the river and planned activities through the season. Pets are welcome. The Kishwaukee's wooded riparian corridor is the property's defining feature — a tree-canopied river environment that sets it apart from the open farmland of most of Boone County, and a genuine escape from both the Chicago and Rockford metropolitan areas without a long drive from either. Summer is the season in northern Illinois, when the pool, the river, and the activity program are all running. Reserve well ahead for July and August weekends, with easier availability through the spring and fall shoulders.

Sweet Minihaha Campground

26 RV Sites, 50 Tent Sites

Sweet Minihaha Campground in Brodhead, Wisconsin, is a riverside family campground with RV and tent sites on the Sugar River, and kayak rentals available on site. Sites accommodate rigs up to 27 feet, which makes this a better fit for smaller trailers and vans than for big coaches. The campground sits in Green County on US-14, about an hour south of Madison. RV sites take rigs to 27 feet, and tent sites serve campers who want the riverbank without hauling a trailer. Facilities are deliberately simple: bathrooms on site, firewood available, and recycling provided. Guests who need full hookups or extensive infrastructure should note that this is a riverside campground rather than a resort, and it is priced and equipped accordingly. The Sugar River is the reason to come. Kayak rentals are available on site, and the river's flatwater character makes it forgiving for paddlers of any experience level — a genuine advantage over the faster Wisconsin rivers to the north. Fishing and canoeing round out the water recreation. The Sugar River State Trail, a 23-mile rail-trail crossing five historic river bridges between New Glarus and Brodhead, runs close by for cyclists and, in winter, cross-country skiers. Pets are welcome. New Glarus is nine miles north on WI-69 — the most authentically Swiss village in the Midwest, founded in 1845, home to the New Glarus Brewing Company and the Wilhelm Tell outdoor drama each September. Monroe, 14 miles southwest, is the Swiss cheese capital of the United States and hosts Cheese Days in even-numbered years. Sweet Minihaha runs from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day. Summer river recreation and rail-trail cycling drive peak demand, and the fall cheese-country touring season follows through October and November. Reserve ahead for summer weekends and for the Wilhelm Tell and Cheese Days event dates.

Dutch Treat Camping & Rec

Dutch Treat Camping opened in August of 1969. It all started out with Grandpa (Nelson) not liking the land being unused. Being a recent gravel pit that was excavated for the highway, while lower in the ground, made it perfect for private camping. The property is a big open area with both wooded and sand lots. We worked to have two ponds, one for fishing and one for swimming. In 1975, we filled in the swimming pond, and also added our first full hook-up. In August of 1975, we added the current pool. The camp has progressed into a popular family destination. Our two daughters, Darlene and Linda, run it. Our three boys come to help out when needed. It has been family-run and operated for three generations, all of whom are still active in its operation. Our Daughters, who you will see managing the office, are Linda and Darlene. Melissa, Kelsie, and Linda’s Daughters also work in the office. Linda currently lives in the staff housing at the entrance to the campgrounds.

Conestoga Grand River Campground

Conestoga Grand River Campground in Coopersville, Michigan, offers full-hookup RV sites on the Grand River, with water, sewer, and electric in back-in and pull-through configurations. An outdoor pool, boat ramp, kayak rentals, game room, sports courts, and golf cart rentals serve a 100-site Ottawa County property with deep water access to the river corridor. Sites carry water, sewer, and electric in back-in and pull-through configurations, with fire pits and picnic tables. Contact the campground to confirm amp service, length limits, and current category availability for your rig — the published site records are incomplete, and a call gets you a straight answer. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, RV storage, boat storage, and a snack bar handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a boat ramp and kayak rentals opening the river for boating, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing. A game room, arcade, sports courts, basketball, volleyball, playground, pavilion, and golf cart rentals fill the rest, with biking, picnicking, and planned activities through the season. A golf course is nearby. Pets are welcome. The address is 9720 Oriole Drive. Deep water access is the distinguishing feature — the Grand is Michigan's longest river, and from here it runs west to Lake Michigan at Grand Haven, which means a boat launched at the campground can reach the big lake. The salmon and steelhead runs draw anglers, and Grand Rapids sits a short drive east with Grand Haven's beaches and boardwalk to the west. Summer is decisively the season. Reserve well ahead for July and August.
