What campers say

Marshall State Fish and Wildlife Area campground is a small, intimate site on the Illinois River with roughly two dozen sites and pleasant waterside views and sunsets. Campsites include electric (30‑amp) and dry camping; water hookups are reportedly available near the restrooms. It’s used for fishing and boating, though boat access can be difficult when river levels are low. Visitors note tradeoffs: proximity to a busy road brings traffic noise and limited privacy, and experiences vary on cleanliness and management—some praise a helpful host and maintained sites while others report trash, occasional long‑term occupants, and basic vault toilets.
