NEW CAMPGROUND BEING DEVELOPED / In Kincaid Illinois.

We are showing a new campground that is being developed in our little town of Kincaid, Illinois. This area had been a village burn pile (yard waste), but because of nice lake views, they decided to open it up for seasonal camping. Last spring the village created 10 campsites with electric hookups, but they are currently installing water and sewer lines. The campground is in its early stages of being developed; although the seasonal sites are up and running. The South Fork Dirt Riders Club is just up the road so this would be a convenient spot to camp for people who are participating in events (Memorial Day & end of July are two planned events). There is limited, and pricy, camping at the Dirt Riders facility, but none is full hookup. The village looks to be doing a pretty good job on the campground, and we look forward to seeing how it turns out. (We'll do an updated video in a few months.)
The village office phone number is 217/827-5543. Current pricing is $35/night for campsites and $25 for boat sticker. The first link listed below is for the Kincaid Lake site that has the current pricing and reservation information.
Thanks Again ---- Linus & Dana @hitchinupmovinon8386

Hi! I am April Wolfe, wife to the Supt. of the Village of Kincaid, Mark Wolfe. Thank you for taking the time to come out and visit the Kincaid Lake lake lots and RV campground. Yes! You are right when you say there have been great improvements made to the Kincaid Lake and grounds. To clarify a few things you said in the video, there are 10 RV camp spots that rent for $35.00/day. The watercraft registration stickers are $25.00 and there is now a wonderful campground host. The RV lots are in the center of the main grounds. Those are what you pointed out as having power, water, and sanitation stations (green pipe). The sites on the perimeter of the lake and on back into the more wooded areas are leasable lake lots, that are leased annually and all have access to electricty. There is constant effort on the part of the Village to monitor the state of those lots in an effort to keep them from reverting back to the eyesores they once were. The Village has also been working with DNR to monitor and improve the waters, wildlife, and fish population in the lake. Yes, there are Bald Eagles that nest in the lake area! We invite you to come back to visit the site a see more improvements that take place and to fish again as there are good sized fish in the lake. We personally love kayaking on this lake and that is so much easier now that they installed a new kayak/canoe launch. We would love to share with you the following link to the new website dedicated to Kincaid Lake where you can find all of the updated information you were looking to share and how to make reservations for the RV campsites. Thank you so much for visiting Kincaid Lake and we hope you come back soon!!!😊 sites.google.com/view/kincaidlake

Thank you for the video of this area. Linus, I’m glad you have recovered well from surgery. I wanted to let you know that this video actually had a commercial. You’re getting close. Keep the videos coming.

Mark Wolfe.....A name I last heard when I was in 4th grade. Left Kincaid in 1985. Accidentally came across some news that is currently going on there. Some civil right violations....I hope you all get that situated in a safe manner. I know that them Kincaideins can get nasty when provoked. Excuse me for asking but does anyone know what happened to the Breast family? Daniel Breast and his sister Abigail Breast? hope you all are ok and doing good !

We had our camper at two separate "residential" camping or yearly camping places, and I agree Linus, they allow those folks to really trash up those lots. We pulled out of both. Actually, did you take the 5th wheeler up there for us, when Les was still with us? Miss seeing you.

[@danaschmid3670]

Thanks so much for your comment! Linus said he did pull that camper for you. We're very impressed with how the village has cleaned up the seasonal sites this year! It looks so much better than it has in the past couple of years.
