Mendota Hills Campground

Campgrounds and lakes are immaculate, people are super friendly and the bathrooms/showers are the cleanest I've ever seen at a campground. Prices are also reasonable. Just don't be too loud or obnoxious after 10:30pm and you'll have a great time.

We love camping/glamping at Mendota Hills! Everyone is friendly, it is well maintained and they offer lots of amenities! It's great for the whole family, including your furry babies. We would love to be seasonals here someday.

This was my first but definitely not my last time at Mendota Hills Campground. The owners and staff are so friendly. The campground is huge and clean. You could definitely feel good about booking for just yourself or for a group camp out with enough for both adults and little children to teens to do something. There are quite a few seasonal campers and I imagine the friendliness of the camping community is why. Our women's camping group met here and we were in spots all over the campground. We all had similar experiences of friendliness, helpfulness and cleanliness of the campground amenities. There is a great swimming pond with fun activities for the kids; weekend activities to participate in; and a Sunday non denominational church service. They offer golf cart rentals if you do not own one. Our group leader rented one and it was clean and well maintained. There is a nice play ground for children including an inclusive swing set; sand volleyball court and basketball hoops. I am sure I didn't see all of the amenities.

This campground is a beautiful hidden gem. We have been many times over the years. Every time there seems to be a new addition to the property. They are constantly re-investing. Facilities are well maintained. Everyone including the residence/ campers are there to enjoy themselves and relax. GREAT place for the family.

This campground is very family friendly with tons of yearly activities and special “weekend’s”. Check out the schedule before you book, you won’t be disappointed! Tent/RV/popup/camper with all the amenities of home.

We have gone twice, we truly love this place. Donna front desk was amazing offered to use her golf cart to give us extra light while we had to pack up at night to leave since we were having a family party early the next day. They also gave us Buds Island when a customer cancelled there reservation. What a treat that area was. Everyone there is friendly not just staff but residents as well. Also really nice activities for kids and adults. Nice playground.

The campgrounds is very clean, the staff was very friendly and helpful. We booked for over the 4th and was told they were full but they booked us on a little used site. The day we came in we were told that a pull through spot had opened up. The staff took us to both spots on their goft cart. And let us pick our place. They have loads of activities on the weekends, and everyone is welcome. One of our weekends included a free will donation pig roast. With bingo after. Food trucks, craft show more bingo and kids Bible school along with Sunday service and potluck were also available. Three things that I was concerned about was the smoking at the pavilion. As non smokers we didn't appreciate that. The other was it seemed that some the goft carts went faster then 10 miles. The bathrooms though very clean the showers could use some upgrades, (very small). Over all this campground is a solid 10 out of a 10. And it's close enough to other activities like Starved Rock. A great ice cream shop in Mendota and don't forget the train museum in Amboy.

This wasn’t our first time staying at Mendota hills and it certainly will not be our last. When we arrived, my husband had some concerns that his truck would rub on our camper when we had to turn around to go to our site. A couple of gentleman that I’m positive own/work there came over and graciously offered to hook their truck up and pull our camper to our site. Super helpful!!! I felt welcomed at every single interaction with every worker and person there. The Mother’s Day activity was adorable and bingo was a blast as always. It seems like they are actively expanding their facilities and offerings while still maintaining very reasonable rates. Thank you for such a wonderful weekend!!

This was our first time at Mendota Hills and it was a great weekend! With our arrival on Friday night, we were greeted by friendly staff and check in was fast and easy. We purchased firewood and it was delivered to the site as we were guided to the site. We really like the cement pad on the pull thru sites and we’re set up in no time. Everyone around the camp grounds were friendly and it was a beautiful setting with the open fields and healthy lakes. There are great activities for everyone to enjoy and everyone seemed friendly and welcoming. Our son was quick to make friends and there was a lot of space to play and different activities to try. His highlights included the frog jumping contest, basketball knockout games, Bingo, volleyball and playing with other kids. The camp ground and showers are clean and quiet. We look forward to our next trip and making more memories as a family. Thank you Jamie, Michelle, Donna, Glenda, and John for your hospitality. See you again soon!
