This RV park is beautiful and conveniently located right off the freeway. It was super easy to check on with no reservations and we got in late. They allowed me to grab the envelope and go park and just pay in the morning. Very friendly and helpful staff. The place offers swing sets and a little playground for children, showers and laundry service, And a nice grassy area to play or walk your dog....

Even though it is close to the freeway, it was very quiet and we got a great night's sleep. Spaces as well as the road are gravel but very easy travel and no problem to pull in to a spot and park for the night. I would definitely stay here again if I got the chance.

My daughter in law booked the campsite while we visited, we actually had some truck issues and got there a day later. The lady checking us in was very nice my DIL said and understanding. They did not charge us for being late or that we weren’t there even though we reserved the date. My son went to check out & said the man was also very nice. Nice play area, very clean and well lit at night. Highly... My daughter in law booked the campsite while we visited, we actually had some truck issues and got there a day later.

Stayed for three nights. Gravel level site (21). There is a dog walk area but wish they had a fenced dog park. Easy on and off I-57. Marion has a quaint square with many restaurants and antique malls. Smaller park with a few amenities. There is a bar and slots in main building.

There is also a nice playground area for kids and a picnic pavilion. There are shaded spaces and some are not. PLUS, clean laundry facilities and shower. AND one of the best kept secrets in the area, the bar (which has a lovely outdoor patio and sometimes live music). Very safe and comfortable.
