Nauvoo State Park

"I am loving camping here. There's a wonderful nature trail and a gorgeous lake. Next time I'm here I'll bring a kayak."

"We stayed here for 2 weeks. It's not very level, and their definition of cleaning the bathrooms and showers is to just drench everything in a bleach solution, toilet paper included, let it just sit, and not wipe anything down. The electrical box is shared between two sites, so you need a pretty long cord in order to reach it. All that being said, we really did enjoy our time here. With it being only 5 mins from everything in Nauvoo, it is an ideal location to stay if that's why you're there. There's a free history museum on site that's a cute, little, local history museum. There's also a little lake where you can fish, boat, or swim. There are tons of trees, so, no matter the time of day, we always had shade. It is $20/night for electric sites. There's also a dump station, and two water spigots in the electric campground. They also have tent camping sites. Our T-mobile service was pretty good."

"Wonderful place to spend a whole day! Don’t miss the 10 minutes driveway beside the river. Great for fishing, camping, boating, hiking, doing BBQ and Party!"

"Great little park with lots of camping sites. Electric and non electric sites available for $20 and $10 per night respectively without senior/vet discounts (Discounts only apply to Illinois residents). There are only a couple water spigots around, but water can be accessed at the shower house and at a single spigot in the electric site area. Showers and bathrooms are included with the camp site fee. Lots of handicapped accessibility areas including at the boat launch. Easy lake access here with lots of fish in the lake, and a boat ramp plus a dock."

"This park is so beautiful. Lots of beautiful old trees, rolling hills, and some historic buildings to boot. While there are some signs of this parks age such as the roads and lack of 50 amp power our stay was still very enjoyable. The bathrooms and showers were very well kept and we had plenty of hot water for showers. It would be great to see the state update the RV section or even add some as they are a bit close together compared to other state parks we have visited. Being super close to historic Nauvoo area was nice as we were able to ride our bikes and cruise the old town streets. All of the tours are free and there is plenty to learn both historic and Morman. While I'm nether Morman or religious it was interesting to hear the stories on our tours. I will be sure to add this to our future adventures in camping."
