We stayed overnight at Double J Campground in early may.

Pull through site-didn't even have to unhook.

Easy off and easy on highway.

Double J is right of I55 for easy access and has a pool. Sangchris Lake State park is one of my favorites. There are two campgrounds at Sangchris and I prefer the one on the lake.

We stay at the Double J Campground in Springfield, IL when we return from Goshen. It's a good choice.

We stayed there last year. Very nice and clean. Owners are sticklers for the rules which is good if you don't like yapping dogs and children running around.

FROG International Rally. Sold out for this year. Here's a link with more information. Forest River Owners Group - The official owner's group of Forest River RV, manufacturer of world-class recreational vehicles.

Maybe you can make it next year.
