      Site 12 - Kayak Morris Riverside Tent Camping
      Great place to camp along the Illinois River. Hosts were great to work with and great communication, the camp areas are rustic but nice to have a picnic table and fire ring. Checking in was super easy and friendly. There are other campers within eyesight, but the campsites are far enough apart that you are not bothered. There was one camper who had somewhat louder music during the early evening, but it was off well before the 10PM quite time. I liked that the hosts run a tight ship with keeping campers adhering to the rules, and also the safety aspects. From a birding perspective, I saw multiple Terns and Gulls, 2 Bald Eagles, and some Turkey Vultures. Will definitely go back.

      Amazing place! We love our spot number 14. We had the surprise with the unexpected campfire we could cook in it. Perfect for groups of all ages! Plenty of activities around. Kayaking, fishing and hiking. Definitely we will come back

      Loved it but hipcamp is a rip off. I payed 90$ and if I just went to the campsite it was 27$. Last time I’m using this site

      We had a great experience. Site 14 was a little harder to reach compared to other sites, but still very manageable. Everything was well maintained and clean. Being steps from the river was great.

      Views were pretty, the directions to get to the gate are clear. Lots and lots of rules. Waivers that need to be signed. Signs for each campsite are a little hard to find and read. Road is difficult to drive down in a smaller vehicle. But if you look past all the rules and difficulties getting to the campsite, it’s a pretty stay for the night.

      The camping was very nice by the Illinois River and it was soothing to hear the water and smell the outdoors. The only issue is that if you use Hipcamp to book a spot, it will not show up on their records in their computer so you will most likely have to have someone call the manager to get you in. Plus, because they did not know we were coming due to it not showing up, the site was not cleared up of the super tall weeds and grass so that was a bit annoying. The kayak rentals are a bit expensive as well ($45 per kayak for 2 hours). Other than that, it was a lovely stay and the staff were friendly. I would recommend.
