Illinois Campgrounds with pinball machines?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: rec.games.pinball (More info?)

Anyone know of any in the Northern Illinois/Southern Wisconsin area?

I know that some campgrounds still have some small arcades designed to
cheat a few quarters from the guests.

Any know of one with pins?

I'm taking my two sons on their first camping trip and figured finding
one with a decent pin would be a bonus.

Oh and I'll save ya the "Camping is about the outdoors not pinball"
comment.

Thanks...

There's a campground in Southern WI near Milton/Janesville called
"Blackhawk". I haven't been there in a few years, but they used to
have a gameroom off the beach with Taxi and a BK2000.

If you stop in there, let me know if the gameroom is gone. Anybody
else know for sure?

I was at a campground just south of Stevens Point in Wisconsin called Vista
Royale. It had an Addams Family that played great. Between myself and my
gf's dad, we must have pumped $15 into that machine and gotten a dozen free
games.

Hi, I was just in Kewanee Illinois and found 5 pins at a bowling
alley. All clean and working. They have a nice state park just
outside of town with camping.

Let me know if you need more details.

The gameroom is still there. Last time I was there it had an AFM in
it.

Its on Highway 59 about 3 miles North of Milton.
