     If you came for an overnight stay Pine Hills Campground is a perfect place to camp; you'll discover a charming lake called Anna State Hospital Reservoir. Get wet paddling on Little Grassy Creek, and nearby you discover nice sites like Kratzinger Hollow. After a long day outdoors Americas Best Value Inn/Ullin is a great location to spend a night or two, and do explore Upper Bluff Lake, it's a wonderful lake. State Pond is a pretty wet place regularly with a  
   great deal of rainfall; March is the month that gets the most rain; January on the other hand is the driest.
And if that's not sufficient, there's heaps more to do close to State Pond. Anna State Hospital Reservoir Dam is not far at all from State Pond, and a wonderful close by hotel is Super 8 Anna. Playing golf is lots of fun at Union County Country Club, and do take a hike on the Opossum Trot Trail. This lake is so wonderful.

Pine Hills Campground
Pine Hills Campground is the place to go when exploring the Shawnee National Forest. Finding the campground can be difficult, but easy if you have a topographic atlas. It is located adjacent to Illinois largest wilderness complex, nothing significant on a grand scale, but a world away from the madness of Chicago at the opposite end of the state. It is between ILL routes 3 and 127 between Grand Tower and Trail of Tears state forest. I'm sorry to say I cannot share the best site in the campsround, but will probably find it yourself without much effort. It is at the back of the loop adjacent to the stream. I basically gave it away, but good hunting still! Actually, it can be difficult to find, but well worth the solitude. Good wildlife viewing in the area, especially near the LaRue Swamp area- many hawks can be seen in this perennial spring fed wetland. It is the Mississippi River Valley in a natural state- a remnant of it, at least. ...
