Springfield Illinois camping and site seeing.
Late this month we'll be heading to Springfield to check out all the Abe Lincoln history. Do you have any suggestions for places to camp and things to do while we are there?

There are a number of campgrounds just off I-55 south of town and Riverside Park a small park with limited facilities at the north end of town. And a couple of state parks but the best place is the Springfield KOA southeast of town in Rochester, Illinois. It's a complete campground and very quiet.
