RV rental Eagle Creek State Park, IL: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

Lake Shelbyville is the main event at Eagle Creek State Park and provides a picturesque backdrop for swimming, boating, and fishing. There's a ramp for launching larger boats like water skis and pontoons, or you can simply head down to the sandy shoreline to launch a canoe or kayak. Developed picnic areas dot the shoreline and feature tables, grills, and water faucets. Hundreds of tributary streams flow into Lake Shelbyville, making it a paradise for anglers. Cast a line and you could reel in black and white crappie, largemouth bass, walleye, catfish, bluegill, muskie, bullhead, carp, and sunfish. A trio of nature trails meander through the park and showcase the lush forests and beautiful lakeshore. For a longer hike, lace up your boots and hit the Illini Trail, which stretches for 11 miles along the banks of Lake Shelbyville. Within the park, Eagle Creek Golf Course features emerald green fairways and beautiful views of Lake Shelbyville. Lessons with the club pro are a fantastic way to refine your technique. If you like to hunt, the 785-acre Eagle Creek Wildlife Area is a good place to target rabbit, squirrel, and quail. Other activities that are popular with Eagle Creek State Park campers include archery, horseback riding, cross-country skiing, and snowmobiling.
