Fair price and they went out of there way so that I didn't pay a day more than I had to. Recommended.

This recreation of the 1830s Village Lincoln lived in for 6 years is definitely worth a visit! it…read moreis here that Lincoln went from a self-described piece of driftwood to someone who had experience as a land surveyor, had been a captain in the army, and was starting to read law. The entry fee is donation based. For a family, the suggested donation is only $10, which is very reasonable. There is a café and small gift shop in a building separate from the visitor center, although you can bring your own food and drink and have a picnic on the covered tables outside the café. The Visitor's Center has some really interesting exhibits about the town and its short lifespan. While Lincoln was certainly the most famous inhabitant, the other people who lived in town are also of interest, as are the exhibits about daily life in 1830's frontier Illinois. The village was recreated in the 1930s based on interviews with people who grew up in new Salem or are descendants of people who live there, as well as visible foundations of the buildings. The weather was absolutely amazing when we went, but even on a hot day, New Salem would be nice to visit because there are lots of shade trees over the walking paths between the buildings. During our visit, six or seven Interpreters welcomed us into a selection of the shops and homes. These folks dress in historic costume and tell you about the house or shop they're in, as well as what they know about the village. The Interpreter at the Rutledge Tavern mentioned that she has read many accounts of folks who had been to new Salem, lived in new Salem, or were descendants of people who lived there. She also talked about her process of determine which accounts were the most accurate and therefore usable in day-to-day work as an Interpreter. The Interpreter in the doctor's house was fantastic and is a distant cousin of Abraham Lincoln, as well as a trained doctor who has a lot of information about 1830s medical practice. The interpreter at the blacksmiths shop was working on a pin for his wife's voluminous hair! We were at the site about four hours, although you could go through faster, depending on how many interpreters there are and whether you stop in the visitor center.

What a WONDERFUL find along our trip!! This campground is a new KOA Journey, and you can tell the…read moreowners are VERY proud of their property! I was especially impressed with their mens room bath and shower! My wife and I were on the road for 28 days and THIS was the cleanest and largest shower I had seen after traveling 6600 miles. We discovered that KOA's have three levels: Journey, Holiday, & Resort. My wife and I enjoyed this Journey as it is the closest to "real camping" with just enough to relax without feeling like you're in some sort of "Disney Resort". I would highly recommend this campground and will stay here again if I ever get the chance!!

Many improvements over the past year associated with new lights for walkers and camp site…read moreelectrical upgrades to 30 and 50 amp service. Unfortunately, the electrical upgrade to the campground was delayed until March/April of this year instead of being done in the fall of last year. Now the camping sites are in the process of trying to grow new grass as the sites are being used. While the electrical upgrades were needed and appreciated, the need for a previously discussed lighting upgrade within the campground has not been completed and poses an additional Safety Hazard to occupants of each upgraded site beyond that which already existed. Finally, Daily rates were increased from $17.00/site last year to $25.00 (30 amp) or $30.00 (50 amp) for the 2022 camping season. Longtime and dedicated Friends Creek campers feel that such a drastic cost increase is not justified and in fact, will have A negative impact to the 2022 season. Many of the dedicated campers have already started using other local campgrounds that provide better lighting, larger wash facilities, numerous playgrounds and local restaurants, and for a substantial decrease in daily rates.

The park itself is very pretty, lots of green space, very mature trees that provide a ton of shade, picnic tables, and fire rings and it is very clean. The downside is you are sandwiched between Highway 74 and a train track and it is very loud. I can honestly say and all of our travels this is the loudest we have ever had From a nearby highway. We had our overhead fan running on high all night and you could still hear the semi's rumbling by so we did not get a good night sleep. There is a nice pool here and they had music playing so the kids would probably really enjoy this place. Lots of room to roam! We were assigned slot 19, which is a nice pull through site. We did have a bit of trouble with low water pressure at this site. We also could not get the Wi-Fi to work. We could connect, but the speakers were so low. We couldn't do anything with it. We have Verizon and cell service was great so that worked out for us. At $36 per night for a 30 amp site with a good Sam discount it's a pretty good deal. Staff were super friendly as well.
