We enjoyed each camping experience we had at BoWoods this past camping season. We got to enjoy the workers at this campground. They do an excellent job.

Site 40 is a nice pull thru site however it has a poor placement for the sewer connection. It is all the way at the back of this long site making it difficult to use

Our favorite place to camp. We enjoy the paid staff who work at Bo Woods.

Bo Woods is an outstanding extremely well maintained campground, as well as outstanding camp hosts, rangers and friendly campers.

Super easy to pull into. Lots of room on this spot. This is usually a quiet area. The only negative would be the smell at times from the lift station nearby.

A quick fall trip to get away from it all….the perfect place to do it.

We love Bo Woods at Lake Shelbyville! A nice clean and quiet campground. Bathrooms and bathhouse are always well taken care of. We use the boat ramp and have a great time on the lake. A visit to The North End is a great stop for food! The Feathered Nest is a great little home decor locally owned refurbished shop at Bruce. Slushies are best at Howies at the Findlay Road and Windsor. For lunch or dinner the Wurst place in Windsor has great food and great service, it opened in 2021.

We enjoyed our stay. We made a trip to Arthur, IL to shop at resale store, and a couple of grocery stores. We shopped at Sullivan Hardware store and the Habitat for Humanity resale store. I was Chaplain at Sarah Bush Hospital so had to make trips to Mattoon, Monday thru Friday. It was raining the first couple of days and them the last part of our stay we had to use our air conditioner. The campground is well taken care of. The people at Check-in were very friendly. We look forward to our future trips to Bo Woods Campground.

Great campground, weather wasn't very cooperative for fishing, but did go mushrooming. Clean restrooms and showers. Will return again and again.

Excellent site. Nice facilities. Very spacious site for a family of 4 and a dog. Only downfall was the distance to the sewer hook up. Had to park away from it in order to get the awning out due to a tree. But we made it work!

We enjoyed our stay even though it rained a couple of days. We did a trip to Sullivan and a trip to Arthur. We were able to enjoy some quality time around a couple of camp fires!!! We reconnected with friends!!!

We enjoyed our stay as we were able to get one of our favorite sites using reservation. The only thing we did not enjoy was the snow that we experienced.

We love going to Bo Wood Campground. The park is well taken care of,people are friendly. The campsites are very nice. It is close to Sullivan and surrounding areas when you need get something.The dog park is nice and the boat parking lot is very close to ramp . It is a favorite place to camp because sites are not empty very long.
