Camp A While RV Park in Lincoln, IL

Cannot recommend enough! Eric is super friendly and helpful. He couldn’t have done more to help us with our camper we had just picked up and we’re having some confusion with. Super grateful, thanks Eric! And Wrigley :)

Called late in the evening looking for a spot for the night and the owner was very helpful. Grounds were full of heavy snow and it was dark but he  still came out to greet us and made sure we had everything. No amenities but you get what you pay for and it was a great price for 1 night. Being from Ireland and always driving into the unknown on our road trip is was great to have people looking out for us.

Were met by a friendly "shirtless" man who helped us park.  The water standpipe was shared by an adjoining site.  The dog is quiet and does not jump on you. The price charged was very reasonable.

We were traveling through the area with two other RV's. The owners were extremely nice and allowed us to dump and fill. They were great people.  If your in the area and need a spot.  Call them.

Would definitely come back to this cute little campground. Eric & Todd are both great— friendly & helpful, and Wrigley is the sweetest good dog. The site was perfect for me and the sunrise view was amazing!

We absolutely enjoyed the pure and unique atmosphere of this park.  The owners are so hospitable and of course wrigley the welcoming lab was the best. Even though we’re from Albuquerque and used to beautiful hot air balloons, it was a pleasure to see these balloons rising over the cornfields. What a treat.

We had a most excellent stay.
We liked it so much we extended our 2 day stay to 4 days.
The owners, Eric and Tom are so friendly, kind and caring. Plus Wrigley, the camp pup was a delight.
It was also so to close Lincoln, where there is so much to do and a very welcoming town.
Thank you for such a relaxing and comfortable stop as we travel from New York to California.

Wow!! Among the cornfields of Illinois! And greeted by Wrigley,  what a sweet dog! Easy to get in, very accommodating and a perfect stop on the way home to Missouri from Door County, Wisconsin

Wow, what a wonderful experience — from the detailed communication and even greeting us as we pulled in!
We were coming from visiting family in Michigan and heading back to our home in Kansas City, so this was the perfect spot to break up the drive. However we had no idea what we had found. A beautiful, peaceful  location, that is well taken care of and will make you feel truly relaxed.
We enjoyed a local pizza from Joe’s Pizzeria (delivery-cash only) and a bottle of wine while watching the sunset and fireflies.
These brothers live on site and are doing it right! (Oh and their sweet dog is so adorable bringing you his toy to play)
We will definitely be back and probably make this our “regular” stop on the way to Michigan and back!
Keep up the great work and hospitality, in this busy world this kind of gem is hard to come by!
Thank you Camp A While!

Great place to stop for the night! The hosts are super nice, accommodating, and helpful. Communication was top notch before and during our stay. Peaceful, quiet setting.

Beautiful place to live your hole life, plenty of perfect people and clean place to b the air so fresh and a perfect life is where you are at Camp awhile
