Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:
Adeline Jay Geo-Karis Illinois Beach State Park has all of the usual facilities you’d expect from an outdoor space such as hiking trails, bike trails, camping sites, fishing piers, boating facilities, and cross-country skiing trails in the winter. What makes it really stand out is additional recreational opportunities such as swimming, scuba diving, and geocaching. The swimming beach is one of the best in the state - a 6.5 mile golden sandy turf of Lake Michigan. The park also has an on-site resort which is perfect for a couple’s getaway or a vacation with the entire family.
