This park is known for its towering shade trees and its position adjacent to the scenic Lincoln Creek, offering a refreshing break from the open highway. It combines the simplicity of a municipal park with the essential comforts required for a pleasant stay in the Midwest.

Here's a free place to rest- a while. Flat and perfect for smaller RV. I Parked my 25 foot class C....it was perfect. Plus the 30 Amp plug for comfort. Quiet enough if you are tired. Some train whistles. Good cell signal.

I can't recommend this park enough. You can see that the city of Aurora has put a lot of work into this place and it shows. I am super impressed. They have multiple restrooms, trails, baseball fields, playground, and super nice back in overnight camping spots. I'm guessing that there appears to be about 15 or so camping spaces. The surrounding community is beautiful. The city does accept contributions for the overnight camping which I happily gave a donation. This city is very generous. This is a wonderful park.

Beautifully maintained little campground. I get good Verizon signal, there are inside flush toilets, water, garbage and rv dump station. Haven’t seen anyone use it yet. No reservations. 4 day limit. First come first served and on a donation basis. Lots of every conceivable recreation sports complex right next door. Pool, waterslide, showers in pool complex( seasonal) playground, hiking/biking trails etc. Gas and convenience store right across a very busy street. A little noise from that street but not bad. I love that the campsites are along a tree lined little gravel road. Very grateful for this beautiful little campground

It's a rest stop there are 18-19 spots some have hookups for RVs others for tent campers bathroom on site they ask for donations of $5 for tent site & $15 for RV site. Was very convenient for me on my road trip. There is a train very close by that may bother some people but it didn't bother me much.
