Fulton County Camping & Rec Area

About Us

Welcome to the Fulton County Camping & Recreation Area, where 440 sprawling acres await, including about 150 acres of pristine waters. Our area boasts several strip-mined lakes, with the natural gem being Little Sister Lake, fed by a creek. The major lakes are expertly managed by IDNR and are replenished annually with channel catfish and largemouth bass. You'll find these species along with bluegill, redear, and crappie throughout the campground lakes. Lakes 3 and 4 are home to muskie, while Red Barn Lake is graced with yellow perch. Fishing limit signs are conveniently placed at each boat ramp for your guidance.Upon entering the campground, the information pavilion provides maps and useful details to enhance your visit. Our facilities include a shower house (open from May 1st to November 1st), a sanitary dump station, dumpsters, trash cans scattered throughout the area, and a freshwater pump for your convenience. We kindly remind all campers and guests to adhere to speed limits and remain vigilant for children, geese, and golf carts. Feel free to enjoy fishing from any bank or your boat, but please be mindful and respectful of docks, which are owned by seasonal campers. Always seek permission if campers are present and ensure you leave no trace by picking up your trash and personal items.
