Camp Shabbona Woods 15810 Torrence Avenue, South Holland, IL 60473

"This place is fantastic. Great place to relax and become one with nature. You have trails, a nature center, it is clean and the staff is very helpful."

"Lovely, clean, friendly and safe for camping. I stayed with my friends and their kids. We loved the place. not too far / koz kids can’t go in car long/ and clean, check in is easy, sttaffs are nice and professional. They give you 2 bundle of woods within booking."

"Beyond a shadow of a doubt the fanciest campground I have ever stayed at. They have clean running water and clean, well-maintained facilities, plus when you check into a tent pad they give you a free small bundle of wood! Each additional bundle is $5 and is available from the office trailer before 10PM. For the less outdoor-inclined, cabins are available for reservation and, in the event of a thunderstorm, tent campers are encouraged to seek shelter under the overhang on the porch. Great for bikepacking and South Shore Line train users— it's a couple miles from the station and easy to get to. You'll still hear distant traffic and so it doesn't feel *too* remote, but still feels like getting out into nature. Staff is wonderful, accommodating, and truly sweet. Camp Shabbona is excellent— highly recommended."

"Heart of the Lamb Christian Academy youth group enjoyed three days at Camp Shabbona. The campground was well maintained. The staff was superior. We look forward to returning next year. Thanks for a fantastic experience."

"Excellent camping ground not far from the city and in close proximity to coffee shops or fast food places whilst giving the feel of camping in the woods and nature preserve. Good for folks getting introduced to camping. Very helpful staff, the only issue we faced was that the lack of water in the rest rooms and some frantic calls were made by the staff to get the water going again. Please call ahead and ensure that the water issues have been taken care of before you camp. Sand Ridge nature preserve has hiking trails that can be accessed between 8 AM to 4 PM from the camp grounds. You can also sign up for activities and nature preserve tours like the Frog Watch tour etc led by naturalists. Dogs are allowed on the camp sites but must be kept on a leash at all times. Overall, we enjoyed the camping but for the water issues in the rest rooms. I hope FPDCC and the camp site management take care of resolving this immediately."
