A home base in the Metro East

Seasonal camping without the weekly setup.

Campers searching near Edwardsville, Glen Carbon, Troy, and the surrounding Metro East often want more than a place to park for one night. A seasonal site gives you one familiar outdoor home base for the camping season, so your camper and setup are ready when you are.

Bur Oaks Campground is in Alhambra, Illinois. We are a private, gated, members-only campground centered on annual seasonal sites, community, and repeat visits—not nightly or transient camping.

Your camper stays put

Spend less time packing, towing, and rebuilding camp—and more time enjoying regular weekends throughout the season.

A wooded outdoor setting

Return to mature trees, shared outdoor spaces, a lake, and a setting designed for seasonal campground life.

A familiar community

Members come back to the same campground and neighbors, making it easier to build traditions and friendships over time.

Before you choose a seasonal site

Visit, ask questions, and make sure it fits.

During a tour, ask about site sizes, camper fit, membership policies, guests, pets, amenities, seasonal events, and the joining process. Availability changes, so contacting the Bur Oaks office is the best way to learn what may be open.

Prospective members can request a visit through our membership form. Your request goes directly to the campground waitlist in our office portal, where the Bur Oaks team can follow up with you.
