you fancy a little side tour, try Distillery Hollow, and you can stay the night at Bayview Campers Park. This lake is so wonderful. Get your pulse rate up on the splendid whitewater of Fall Creek, and Sand Lake is a good site
to visit for more than one day, Valley View Mobile Home Park is a good site to camp nearby. Whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then we recommend Cedar Creek, and for you golfers we recommend nearby Westview Golf Course.

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.... |
