Harvest Preserve (members only)

👍👍 Nice little oasis of peace with a stocked pond on the north-east side of Iowa City. Fishing is catch and release, only. A two-room shelter with a kitchen and a patio are able to be rented. There is plenty of room to put up a volleyball net and other yard games. You can also put more shelter up (part...

👍👍 Great little place to get away for a bit. Ideal for a day trip along with the Devonian fossil gorge! Placards at each enclosure help educate visitors in regards to detailed information regarding each specific bird. There is an attached butterfly garden too, which is very calming and relaxing.

👍👍 We didn’t know this place existed and was real glad we decided to check it out. Nice wide trails, nice pavilions and seating. Actually in the woods and many wild flowers on other side. No other people were around which is also a very nice touch.

Casper Bluff Land & Water Reserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 Casper Bluff is good for an intermediate level walk, with more hills than you might expect and nice, wide mowed grass paths that lead along the river and next to some forest and much open grasslands. More benches than you can shake a stick at, so if you need a rest, you'll have ample opportunities.

👍👍 If you're looking to do some stargazing, this is only a 2hr drive from Chicago and if timed right with the moon phase you'll see skies like this. There is a little light pollution but you will see the Milky Way Core.

Tapley Woods State Natural Area

👍👍 Nondescript wilderness area along US Route 20 in Hanover, IL heading toward Galena. We were lucky with an incredible, closeup viewing of a bald eagle that was literally sitting on a rock outcrop on the side of the road. Even when we backed up to get a better view, it only flew up to a branch of a t...
