Great little park with lots of camping sites. Electric and non electric sites available for $20 and $10 per night respectively without senior/vet discounts (Discounts only apply to Illinois residents). There are only a couple water spigots around, but water can be accessed at the shower house and at a single spigot in the electric site area. Showers and bathrooms are included with the camp site fee. Lots of handicapped accessibility areas including at the boat launch. Easy lake access here with lots of fish in the lake, and a boat ramp plus a dock.

Cute site of the Mormon settlement of Nauvoo. The LDS church only rebuilt important public buildings and homes of important people so there is a lot of space between sites.
