Starved Rock - Illinois

Just completed our trip to Starved Rock. It is an amazing place. Soybean fields and farming all around it then......an unbelievable geological outcropping next to the river. The visitor center is very nice, as is the lodge a short distance away. We hiked probably 70% of the trails over 2 days. Very dog friendly and the trails were almost too civilized. Again, absolutely incredible rock formations and "canyons" with waterfalls (we saw one of the waterfalls referred to above...). As noted above, lots of day people and the RV park only had about 6 residents this time of year. The one downside is that the RV park is pretty far away from the actual state park. We do not tow a car so it was a real issue not being able to go to the park without packing everything up, which we did not want to do. Bottom line is if you visit the park and plan to camp in an RV, you will need alternate transportation to visit the park. All and all, a great first trip in our new motorhome. It took about 2 hours to figure out all the stuff we were missing and that the things we did have were all in the wrong place from a convenience standpoint. We made of list of things to change next time. Thanks to everyone for your responses.
