I grew up on a farm and thrilled to be enjoying country living once again! We are not annual campground, but we have space on the property for travelers needing an overnight or two. We can be found on HIPCAMP listed under OLD RUGGED BARN.
We are in central IL near Historic Rt 66, minutes north of Bloomington-Normal with easy access from I-55. The property is a small 3.5 Acre farmstead that includes our event venue, space that can used for campers, and my home.
We offer space for Campers through Hipcamp. We are NOT a campground per se. We do have space on our property to comfortably accommodate up to 8 spaces for Overnight guests.
I moved to the farm in 2010 with the intent to simply enjoy the peace And quiet of country living. Then I realized we Could create a place that could serve as a place for community to gather for special events.
We are making constant strides to utilize Our 3.5 acres highlighted by the Old Rugged Barn venue and welcome the opportunity to host any kind of public and private event! The Old Rugged Barn..... where happy happens!!

Weldon Springs State Park
4. Weldon Springs State Park
State park 19mi from Atlanta · 95 sites
Tobogganing, anyone? Weldon Springs State Park is a place for all seasons, though we have to say winter time here sounds pretty sweet. Sled or toboggan down a hill, fish in the freeze, or cross-country ski across the icicle-laced countryside. Once it warms up, all the classic trappings of a park are found in abundance. Hike one of the several trails while you keep an eye out for hawks and warblers, or angle for some bullhead fish from the comfort of your boat. When hunger strikes, treat yourself to a po'boy or panini at Pinky's Restaurant. If you come the right time of year, you may just be lucky enough to catch the Apple and Pork Festival at the nearby C.H. Moore Homestead. Scrumptious!

This is a gem of a campground. The seasonal campers were all very welcoming of the weekend warriors. Campground support staff were friendly and knowledgeable. They stock the pond and there are some of the biggest frogs I have ever seen. We would definitely camp here again.

I was a very easy stay. I was met by Eric and he directed where I needed to be. I was the only camper. The site was flat and Eric showed me the power and water hookups. We talked briefly about the site, corn field, meadow and the pond. I thought it was a very idyllic spot. While I could see the highway, it tapered off as the evening wore on. I had no issues falling asleep. Eric came by in the morning to see if I needed any help but I was all packed and ready to go. All in all a very nice stay and if travelling through the area again, I wouldn't hesitate to stay in the future.

Very windy so no fire for us but wood and ring at our site. The expressway is close and noisy until late at night. That said, easy access. A beautiful sunset was enjoyed and we slept well.
