We enjoy using the buildings here. We have all our family parties here. We have been renting them for the past 5 years. They have reasonable rates, clean buildings, and the employees are very friendly and helpful. My Son and Daughter in Law was Married here. Awesome Place.

I’ve hiked the Lake Mingo Trail a few times now and I’ve enjoyed it every time. It is pretty long (7 miles) and a bit challenging at times. There can be a lot of really muddy/wet spots. The last mile or so of the trail is pretty weird as it circled back to the start but still one of my favorite hikes in central IL. There isn’t really anything else of interest in the park.

Kennekuk is a peaceful beautiful park. They need to build in more fishing from the bank access spots for Lake Mingo. If you dont have a boat, there arent many places to fish from.

An open-air museum is very cool if you want to experience the real America! I felt like I traveled to the past! Thanks to the ladies who run the historical buildings I’ve learned a lot about the life people had in the past.

Kennekuk is a great park. There is so much to do here. Cook outside, trails, fishing, hiking, biking. It is kid friendly. They have a bathroom with plumbing (by the train car). Its a great place to spend the day

Ive always loved this park. Its nice and peaceful and you get to see all the sights and sounds of nature. Love seeing all of the wildlife that you normally dont see everyday. We were out there today for the Education Personnel Federal credit Union picnic. It was a nice token of appreciation for all of the members and staff. Just wish that the weather would have cooperated.

Great park with lots to do including hiking, boating, and fishing. Definitely check out the area called Bunker Hill for a look back at how towns looked in this area a hundred years ago. Very cool!

People of Vermilion County Illinois are very lucky to have so many parks and especially Kennekuk. Our group enjoyed the walk in the park and a nice luncheon with a great atmosphere.

Beautiful scenery. More of a prarie style setting. Great trails for hiking or just a walk. Usually always some type of activity durring the summer season. Also a old timey town set up with a general store, church, and school from the horse and wagon days, only open durring certain times. They also have great christmas lights durring the holidays.
