From The Campground
Welcome to Benton KOA!Easy, Convenient, Large Sites, Cable TV, Food Service.With extra-long and wide pull-through RV sites, plus easy on and off the highway, a stay at this Journey KOA is all about convenience for the traveler. We are just 1 ½ miles off the highway at Exit 71, so if you don't feel like cooking once you get here, there are many places to eat, ranging from independent local restaurants to major fast-food chains. Or, you don't have to unhook from your rig. Just settle in and have fresh, hot food from the snack shack delivered directly to your site. If you are looking for new things to do, we can give you plenty of ideas and choices.Our park is located just two easy miles from the 19,000-acre Rend Lake (named the 7th Wonder of Illinois) - with an abundance of recreational activities for people of all ages, from boating and beaches to wildlife demos at the visitor's center. Our area of southern Illinois is known for great fishing, hunting, boating, and bird-watching opportunities. If golf is your game, try one of the local courses. Their range of skill levels will challenge anyone from beginners to advanced players.But wait, there's more! The choices do not stop here.
