I had a great experience with my first camping in Blackwell. it was beautiful area. The bathroom is clean the shower room has a strong water warm water toilet is clean there is also firewood for $7. The crickets at night is so relaxing and the sound of nature is just so noisy but relaxing, there's also electrical outlet you can bring your own extension. We also brought a canopy for our table where we put our food we also had a small barbecue grill they fire pit where you use your firewoods at night and you can make s'mores. At daytime you can walk around the Blackwell Park there's different scenery landscapes that you will enjoy in the forest preserve you can do kayaking too. You can get up early in the morning and run or walk to Mount Hoy.
Great areas for boating and the archery range is awesome! I do like the sites are soft for the tents, just wish the areas were a little bigger
Very well maintained. Nice flat campsites. You wouldn’t know that you’re in the Chicago suburbs except for the occasional sound of sirens in the distance. No water hookups but free filling and dump station. Access to hiking and fishing and canoes. Great little retreat in a convenient location.
Excellent camping experience, well maintained, clean bathrooms and showers , Lake for fishing, walking path ,fire pits , Electricity spot for charging phones or whatever else , OVERALL Great experience
