About William G. Stratton State Park

The Illinois River forms the southern edge of this park, which was created to give boaters and jet-skiers a landing point on the water. It carries the name of Governor William Stratton and sits between the river and the Illinois and Michigan Canal State Trail to the north, putting a paddling route within reach of anyone using the launch areas.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
