For a relaxing camping getaway by the water, head to Macomb, Illinois. Less than 10 miles west of Macomb, Argyle Lake State Park features a range of campground options right next to the lake. Stay at a Class D primitive tent site for a more rustic experience, or secure a Class A campsite complete with showers and electrical hookups for RVers. From the public boat launch, hit the water to catch bluegill and channel catfish or enjoy a relaxing paddle on a canoe rental. Then, hike the Shore Trail to spot native bird species and beaver dams. Northwest of Macomb, Spring Lake State Fish and Wildlife Area is equally appealing, offering walk-in tent camping and basic amenities in the south park. For those willing to brave the winter cold, ice fishing in the south lake promises largemouth bass, crappie, and northern pike.

Weekend Trip to Railroad creek camp ground
Got there early and took the back two sites so tents were farthest back from the one other site in the vicinity and we used the fire and picnic table in the other one. The creek is beautiful and all solid rock in the creek bed so you can hunt for all kinds of cool fossils and geodes without getting muddy. The only pit toilet is up by the gate/entrance where the geode mine is so if you're thinking you want to be close than take the first site before the little bridge but be aware people showing up to the geode mine early in the morning might make noise with their pickaxes.

Weekend Trip to Wildcat Springs Campground And Pool
Site 6 was well shaded. The single bathroom/shower was a short walk from our campsite. The door is propped open so no code is needed. Friday night the campground was fairly deserted. It got more lively the next night! The mosquitoes were fairly aggressive until the breeze came up on Saturday. Unfortunately, the pool closed last weekend. I was glad we found that out when we called before we arrived. (We booked our site, #6 but the confirmation recorded it as #1 so we called to check on that and were told that it is a glitch but not to worry.). We appreciated the free firewood since the site is a bit more than we usually spend. There were street lights and cameras nearby. Disc golfers came through every so often. There was fairly regular foot and car traffic below our site. We explored Keokuk and Hamilton. Be sure to check out the view from Rand Park!
