Camping at Fishermans Corner near East Moline

Public campground · East Moline · 56 campsites

A forested campground near fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Fishermans Corner sits on a high stretch of the upper Mississippi where the river's wide channel, a nearby aquatic marsh by Locks and Dam 14, and a ribbon of floodplain woods shape the view. Mornings often bring turtle-lined rocks and a steady parade of water and songbirds, and bald eagles concentrate on the river in winter, making the campground a favored spot for eagle watching.

How far ahead to book Fishermans Corner

For May weekends, book about 104 days ahead. Three in four May Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 37 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (21,609 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
