We have been visiting with Ruthi’s Brother (Bill) and wife (Blanche) who live in Seneca. They have a summer home (Park Model) at Wood Smoke where we stayed the last time we came through. They have also bought a trailer and are still looking for a “warm” winter location to park it. The site we have at Illini Park is right on the Illinois River. There is a lot of space between sites but we have hot afternoon sun on one side.
These are electric only sites; so, we have the much needed air conditioner working full-time. We conserve our fresh water supply and limit the waste tank space as we do not have access to shore water nor sewer. Lucky for us the bathrooms/showers are just across the street. If we need to add fresh water there is a “clean” faucet relatively close by. There is a “dump station that we can access on the morning of our departure so that we have empty waste tanks for trailing purposes (lighter).
Check out our blog entry from August 2009 when we stayed at Glenwood RV Resort (a misnomer if ever there was one)! So, you can see how this is a much better location.
