A good close by hotel is Chicago Marriott Suites Downers Grove, and a wonderful place for whitewater paddling is Des Plaines. This lake is so wonderful. If you're popping by Prince Lake from Chicago-Naperville-Joliet, you won't be the only one. Villa Olivia is a perfect local ski area, and for you golfers we recommend nearby Downers Grove Golf Club. You could also check out Barth Pond if you're here at Prince Lake; it's close by, and Martin Campground-joliet

| | is a perfect local campground. If only every location had this much outdoors amusing stuff, what a great planet it would be. If time allows, Illinois & Michigan Canal National Heritage Corridor is a national park worth going to, and if you need a location to stay Downers Grove Chicago Red Roof Inn is a tremendous choice. This lake is so wonderful. Nearby lakes? Sure, Bruce Lake is near Prince Lake, and Paul and Mary's Raceway Camping is a great campground | |

Des Plaines
 | 10 miles away 1 PHOTO To inspect for log jams beneath the gravel pit access bridge directly east of Romeoville High School, you are allowed to drive up to, but not ACROSS the bridge, according to a security gaurd at the gravel pit. To check for log jams, I'd park BEFORE the bridge, and get out and walk across the bridge, looking over the railing. Also, there's a spot where you can walk up to the river edge. Facing east, it will be on your right, before the bridge. I'm uploading a photo dated April 12, 2002. It's a view of that bridge, taken from the water, looking southwest.... |
