This is a parking lot with a boat ramp giving folks access to the Illinois River. So it's not the type of state park with endless trails and interpretive centers, etc. - but it's certainly a fine place to take in the river. There are a few grills and picnic tables as well. A pleasant locale.
I've visited this park a couple times when the weather was nice. It does get flooded, so be careful of the water. They will close it if it gets too wet! The view is great, you can see the boats in the water and my dog loves to sniff all the local wildlife here.
This place is a gem! Park along the river, borders Rt47, the Illinois River, and the Illinois-Michigan Canal, boat launch to the River, Jet Ski launch, running water restrooms, expansive parking, grass area for picnics, and general outdoor activities. Walking distance from all of downtown Morris, with convenient path to downtown business district. Wooded coves on the far East, and west halfs of the park. I+M canal path connects to Gerhard Woods State Park 2 miles west, as well as countless other destinations across northeast IL. Caution: Park is in Flood Plain, and after big rains will be closed due to submergment.
This is a nice place to go for a drive or park to see the beauty of nature.
Great boat ramp. High capacity.
