     After a long day outdoors Microtel Inn And Suites Quincy is a brilliant site to spend a night or two, and you can stay the night at Valley View Mobile Home Park. This lake is so wonderful. Shanty Bend Pond is a pleasant lake close to Goose Lake; there are plenty of folks from Quincy here at Goose Lake. Goose Lake gets a normal amount of precipitation; July is the wettest month with most rain while February is frequently the driest month. There are other locations

If you come at the right time of year, Cedar Creek offers some wonderful whitewater, and a short tour to Homan Falls is always worthwhile.

Cedar Creek
1 PHOTO
In response to keith's note. I've kayaked Cedar Creek several times. During heavy rain events the creek is VERY wild. And while yes it is bony, it's a fun ride.. especially since it's one of the only places to get above a class II ride around quincy. Additionally, DO NOT go to bear creek unless you plan on doing some flat water near where it meets the mississippi river. Any further upstream and you'll be dealing with hostile landowners who aren't aware of the navigability laws in illinois. You'll probably be met by a sherrif on the take out. See uploaded picture of cedar creek a couple of years ago....
