Easy check in and great site. Long enough for my class a rv and didn’t have to unhook. Site quiet and overlooking pond. Camp host very friendly.

Very nice owner and staff! And the facility is very nice as well. We will definitely stay there again when traveling in that area.

Clean well managed camp ground.

A very friendly and accommodating establishment. When we request an extension of our stay, they were able to find some extra sites despite being full. Restrooms and showers were extremely well kept. Would highly recommend this KOA and we would stay there again.

The only criticism I have is about the pet fee. $25 seems excessive for a basic camper cabin where there is no bedding or anything else really to clean except a broom out. I can understand for the other cabin types that require a much bigger clean. That said I love this KOA and have stayed many times.

It was wonderful to be able to pull through with full hookups. We camped right by the pond and it was beautiful even though we had storms. The bathroom was extremely clean. Walter was delightful too!!!

Pros: Owners are very kind and welcoming. Hot showers, microwave, mini-fridge and close to Rend Lake Cons: Carpenter bee's swarming the porch of the cabin was annoying. Large cobwebs in the cabin. Kitchen area needed cleaned before using. Bathroom sink is super small and the light and mirror are down too low. Outdoor amenities seem old (play sets, swings, some picnic tables, etc)

Love this place. This time we stayed on the ‘pond side’ and had a great view. The staff is super friendly and really made us feel welcome. This has become our regular stop as we travel to and from Florida.

Beautiful pond side! Quiet, really nice sky view. FYI Site P74 20A GFI receptacle has a loose neutral on the lower 1/2 of the outlet. Neutral comes and goes depending on position of the cord. Suggest replacing that GFI receptacle. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Loved it. Stayed on the pond side. Used the dog park. Front desk was very friendly.

This is our 3rd stay at Benton KOA in as many years. It's a convenient location for our travels to see family. I prefer the sites across the street to get away from the highway noise. On this trip we were assigned a site close to the highway, so it was noisy, and the dumpster was overflowing, like it hasn't been emptied for weeks. Could've been better.

Awesome place to see the 2024 Solar Eclipse. The management was very accommodating and issued us free eclipse glasses along with Sun Chips and a Moon Pie! Very fitting for the occasion. Great fishing pond that kept my husband entertained for hours.

Park owners and workers were very friendly, helpful and accommodating. The water pressure was good and no electrical problems. The sites are a bit small, but not a big problem. We were there for the eclipse and they gave us an eclipse welcome package at check in. We would definitely stay there again.

We enjoyed our stay. They were still at the office after closing hours to guide us to our campsite in the dark. They helped us with equipment on a first time rental motorhome. They were good hosts.

The stay was fine. The employees were the kindest ppl. The road noise is a bit loud but we blocked it out. It was clean and the bathrooms was clean. The camp store was also nice. Was so happy to have cable and WiFi. I give WiFi a 8-9 because it did slow a few times. I assumed just because when it got full for the eclipse, more ppl was using it. I’d stay again for an overnight for sure!!!!

The most exciting and inviting eclipse ever! Thank y’all so much for the hospitality! �

Everything was fine except the campsite we was given was about 30 ft from a major highway and the traffic never stopped all night long! If we had been given a campsite further from traffic all would have been good.

The staff were very pleasant to work with. Tolerated my dumb jokes. Stayed open a few minutes to accomadate. A TENT site. Is just cleared ground with a fire ring and picnic table as expected. Felt save to walk around for those worried about such things. The only issue was the proximity to a major highway. Vibraation and sound as expected for proximityt

Staff did an exceptional job during the eclipse. Campground was very clean.
Apr 10, 2024
Check in was easy and fast. The site was big and level. Could not ask for much more for a one night pass through.

My reservation was booked last-minute for a crazy weekend, the eclipse. By a miracle we were placed by the restrooms and showers. The hosts were diligent in their duties and very helpful and friendly. The grounds were very clean and the bathrooms were kept cleen. It was a lovely stay.

Needed an over nite stay. Nice camp ground it's just a bit tight for a 40 foot Motorhome.

We had a very pleasant few nights. The campground was clean and the staff was very friendly. The laundry room was clean and we were able to get in and out in a timely fashion. We stayed here to visit the Arch in St. Louis. We enjoyed the stay but the highway noise was noticeable.

Thank you for a wonderful place to stay early in the season. Benton has some great history and our day trip to Garden of the Gods was amazing!

The host was very nice. They parked us rt behind the major highway. It was horrible. The newer showers up by the pond area were fantastic. Warm & clean.

Great facility, nice people.

Things were a bit run down and not kept up well. Staff was very friendly. We stayed without too many other guests so that was nice. The spots around the lake with the patio are the only way to go. Other sites are very close together and nothing but rock. Would recommend in the lake pull thrus!

Love the staff always going out of their way to provide you with a wonderful stay. Would highly recommend this KOA.

This is a good RV park for one to two nights very close to Rend Lake Recreation. Facilities - ok.

Without a doubt - the KINDEST staff of any KOA my husband or I have been to. We stayed for the Eclipse and we're welcomed with a late check-in and amazing service from Becky the following day. Excellent amenities and our children LOVED the parks. If you're considering staying I am confident they are more accommodating than anyone in the area.

We spent a week traveling from Ohio to Kentucky and to Illinois, we stayed at KOAs exclusively and this was by far the most amazing KOA we have been at, and genuinely one of the best campgrounds we've camped at. The staff was friendly, the owner was wonderful, and the pond view was just awesome. This is a hidden gem of Benton for sure.
