Discover Highland Lake RV rentals for memorable road trips

Tucked away deep in the heart of the Illinois Chain O' Lakes in the Chicagoland Region, Highland Lake is a tranquil peace of heaven just 50 miles away from the bustling city of Chicago. Even though the lake isn’t connected to any other lake, it sits just a stone throw away from the Fox Chain O’ Lakes, a motorhome camping hotspot.

Getting Outdoors

Due to the nature of the area, it comes as no surprise that fishing is the most popular activity in the area. Be sure to pack a couple of fishing rods in the campervan as nothing beats a cool afternoon fishing with the family. As you’re instilling the virtue of patience into your young ones, some of the fish to look out for are largemouth bass, northern pike, and common carp.

Camping at Highland Lake

It is always recommended to research on the campgrounds in a certain area if you’re planning to go for some motorhome camping. That way, you’ll be able to avoid last-minute disappointments. The Chain O' Lakes State Park Campground in Spring Grove is one of the more popular RV sites in the area. It has a blend of both back-in and pull-thru sites coupled up to electric hookups. Some of the amenities here include showers, a camp store, and a playground. Pets are also allowed in this kid-friendly campground.

Exploring the Area

When your time camping with a rental motorhome at Highland Lake nears its end, set aside some time for exploring the area. Less than seven miles to the east in Waukegan lies Illinois Beach State Park, home to diverse vegetation and impressive dunes by the lakeshore. The park is awesome for hiking, swimming, and boating.

Kara and Tommy were wonderful hosts! From the time we booked the RV,went on our way, and set up to camp, everything went smooth. They explained everything upon arrival to their house for pickup! She has it all written out just in case you have any questions. She also responds right away to a message if you need her.
Drop off was very simple as well. I would highly recommend renting from them! She even offered a large dog bed to use since we forgot ours. They were sweet and great communicators. We will definitely see them for a future trip. THANK YOU!😀😀
