  • A Story to Tell
    A Story to Tell Starved Rock State Park June 7-8, 2021 Monday and Tuesday Features: Starved Rock State Park & Lodge --- 2 for 1 Broadway Performance! Historic Trolley Tour - Spirit of Peoria Riverboat Let’s spend a couple of days relaxing and enjoying some of the most scenic areas in Illinois. Our first day will take us to Starved Rock State Park. Voted the #1 attraction in the State of Illinois, Starved Rock State Park boasts the largest two-side fireplace in Illinois. The fireplace is located inside the Starved Rock State Park Lodge which was constructed in 1933 by the CCC. We will arrive in time to enjoy a hot lunch buffet and see a musical performance. What's better than a “2 for 1 Broadway Revue Show”. Cynthia and Matt will perform with two songs each from Broadway's favorite shows along with Love and Marriage - where the couple explores the highs and lows of dating, separation, marriage, children and growing older together through favorites such as You're the One That I Want, Big Spender, Till There Was You, Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better, People Will Say We're in Love, and Kids. Next, we allow time for exploring on a trolley tour of Starved Rock. Dinner is included at the Lodge followed by free time for exploring, storytelling and then an overnight stay at the Lodge. Day 2 starts with a buffet breakfast and then it is off to the Spirit of Peoria riverboat for a day-long cruise on the Illinois River as we make our way to Peoria.

  • Outdoor Recreational Needs & the Hunter Lake Opportunity Illinois
    Outdoor Recreational Needs & The Hunter Lake Opportunity Illinois Department of Natural Resources December 3, 2018 Introduction In 2015, the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) entered into agreement with the City of Springfield to manage city-owned property surrounding the City’s proposed secondary water supply (Hunter Lake). The City has already acquired 7,138 acres for the project located in southeastern Sangamon County. The lake is expected to cover 2,560 surface-acres with water. Outdoors recreation generates about $32 billion in economic activity each year for the State of Illinois, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. All this activity supports 90,000 jobs statewide. As the population of the United States continues its gradual migration from rural to urban areas (U.S. Census Bureau), demand for recreational land, open space and hunting and fishing opportunities will continue to grow. With 95 percent of Illinois land in private hands, the state ranks 46th in terms of land in public ownership. The IDNR owns and manages about 480,000 acres. The partnership between the City and IDNR is intended to provide additional public access for outdoor recreation, education and habitat conservation on Hunter Lake and its surrounding area. The City concluded the IDNR is the appropriate state agency to help the City achieve this objective. IDNR has statutory authority to manage the state’s fish and wildlife resources. To this end, the City chose to enter a Memorandum of Cooperation with IDNR (Appendix A) and tasked the Agency with managing the property’s outdoors potential for recreational opportunity, including hunting, fishing, bird-watching, biking, hiking and camping.

  • Starved Rock & Marseilles Pools Illinois River
    STARVED ROCK & MARSEILLES POOLS ILLINOIS RIVER 2021 FISHERIES FACT SHEET The Illinois River is formed at the confluence of the Des Plaines and Kankakee rivers near Channahon. It flows southwest for 273 miles across the state to enter the Mississippi River at Grafton. There are five dams along the Illinois forming pooled reaches named (upstream to downstream) the Dresden Pool, Marseilles Pool, Starved Rock Pool, Peoria Pool and La Grange Pool. The downstream reach is called the Alton Pool because it is influenced by Mel Price Lock and Dam on the Mississippi River at Alton. LOCATION: The Starved Rock Pool of the Illinois River extends from the Starved Rock Lock and Dam near Utica at mile 231 to the tailwater of the Marseilles Lock and Dam at mile 247. The Marseilles Pool of the Illinois River extends from mile 247 to the tailwater of the Dresden Island Lock and Dam at mile 271.5. LaSalle and Grundy counties border this reach. RIVER ACCESS: The lower end of the Starved Rock Pool is wide with slower velocities, while a more narrow channel with higher gradient and swift waters is found further upstream. The Marseilles Pool is a narrow, high gradient, swift pool. Public lands bordering the pools include Starved Rock State Park, Buffalo Rock State Park, Illini State Park, Gebhard Woods State Park, Heidecke Lake State Fish and Wildlife Area, and Goose Lake Prairie State Natural Area. Public boat access to the river is available at Starved Rock and Illini State parks, as well as in South Ottawa and Morris. Public boat access areas offer good bank fishing opportunities.
