Loon Lake is a daily part of life

The parks, waterfronts and outdoor recreation opportunities are a significant part of local's daily lives. "The lake is definitely the area's biggest attraction; people love to go out on the lake for fishing and boating," says Kohlmeier. Loon Lake is the central waterfront area, with several docs for boats and some beaches for residents to enjoy the sunshine. East Loon Lake is directly across from the lake and offers the same amenities. The Northern Illinois Conservation Club is a stone's throw away from Loon Lake and provides education for hunters, fishermen and campers. Sun Lake Forest Preserve allows locals to explore the outdoors and nature beyond the lake. Depending on the season, they will find trees and flowers that are more than a foot tall. A walking bridge lets them cross Sequoit Creek, which flows downstream into Sun Lake. Trail walkers have a chance to see wildlife, including deer and geese.
