Chippewa Campground

Primitive but cozy! Beautiful mature trees, well maintained campground. Even though it's considered primitive, there is electricity! My sister and I had a nice relaxing time. You do have to bring your own firewood. Because it's primitive, there are no shower houses. However, the bathrooms were clean and equipped. We didn't have children with us, but it looked like the park consisted of just swings. The hosts were very nice!

Went to this campground to camp one night & to view the Suchinshan-Atlas comet. Little did I know it was a Halloween festival night. They had trick-or-treating and a scavenger hunt and a movie among other things. I felt completely safe as a solo woman Camping, because the whole vibe of the campground felt like one big family. The hosts were more than welcoming and helpful. The restrooms aka vault toilet rooms were clean and had no unpleasant smell at all. My fire “ring“ grill area was clean. My picnic table was nice and clean. The electricity worked fine-(I am a tent camper, and I only used the electricity to charge my phone)I loved the campground. Will definitely come back. And I got to see the comet!!

My family enjoyed camping at the Chippewa campground. The hosts, Dee and her husband were very friendly and helpful. At check in she gave us some tips on where to fish. They checked on us every day. The campground was affordable and exactly as described when we reserved it. We brought our dog and I think he had more fun than we did.

Chippewa Campground is officially closed so I don't know how many stars to give to it. Besides that, some parts of the Campground look really neat. This is partially because the grass is not mowed. It's lush, tall and still fresh.

We stayed in this section of the Kankakee State Park. The Chippewa campground had a lot of for people who like rustic camping. The center was for people with electrical and water. Our site was very clean. Well kept very nice trails and great access to the river.

The hosts were extremely helpful and did their job very well. Huge shoutout to the DNR maintenance crew for lending me Kevin. He was very helpful with assisting me in my time of need and explaining how everything worked at the park which was a lot more than I thought it was. Dee did an outstanding job, she was very attentive to the entire park from open to close, she paid attention to everything and anyone’s needs including my own. 10/10 would come back. I have zero complaints.

Nice campground with friendly hosts. Really pretty local area. Great place to come if looking for a quick drive from the Chicago area.
