Mississippi Palisades State Park Campground in Savanna IL

This is video is a drive through of Mississippi Palisades State Park in Savanna IL. We definitely enjoyed our stay here including our 8 & 10 year old daughters. I will point out however that there is no real playground other than a swing set just outside of the campground itself and cell service through AT&T is non-existent in most of the campground (both of which we were ok with).

My friends and I used to camp here all the time in the 90’s. It was a lot more secluded then. All the creeks were lined with trees and brush making almost every campsite secluded. Much prettier too. It’s still a great place to go

Thank you for all those meaningless numbers; but magically when I opened the park map, suddenly they were no longer meaningless. 😮 Now I know a little better what to expect. I am glad you took the time to do this. Thanks again. Oh, by the way, that park PDF map also shows the 50 amp sites as well. There are about a dozen or so.

Glad you found it helpful. I plan to keep making more each time I go to a different campground. Just a low tech way to give people another tool for helping them pick campsites and get a general idea of what to expect at our various campgrounds.

Thanks! Wish I saw this before I booked my site. 🙂

I think you have the opportunity to have a great time no matter what site you picked. Glad you liked the video though. Subscribe to the page and/or check back before you make your next reservations and hopefully these videos will be a useful tool to help you pick your campground or camp site.

Do they have 50 amp?

[@boscokid9524]

What would you say is the best tent site away from the rvs?

[@midwestcampingfamily]

Unfortunately I didn't get walk through the tent camping area when I made this video but sites 48-53 or sites 177-182 are the tent camping areas with 53 being the farthest away from everyone based on the map that can be found at the following link.
