About Us

A quiet stretch of Illinois you'll want to stay longer at

Tom & Carol's RV Park sits just off Franklin Street in the heart of Cerro Gordo — a small town where neighbors still wave and the pace slows to something human. We opened our gates for travelers who want more than a place to park: they want a sense of belonging, even if just for a night.

Whether you're passing through on a cross-country run or settling in for a week by the lake, every site comes with full hookups, reliable Wi-Fi, and access to clean, well-kept facilities. This is camping without compromise — and without the crowds.
