A casino coming to the South Beloit area
Situated squarely on the Illinois side of the Illinois-Wisconsin state border, South Beloit is the smaller, quieter sister city to Beloit. Home to about 8,000 people, South Beloit is primarily residential, with some significant parks serving the community, as well as the Rock River. Residents here can put distance between themselves and work, with most major employers located across the border in Beloit, like the ABC Supply Co. national headquarters. Still, the city isn’t expected to stay too quiet for long. “We are looking at more development,” says Realtor Teresa Skridla with Century 21 Affiliated. “Right across the border on I-90, there is a casino being built, which means there is going to be more commercial development right in that Beloit-South Beloit area. We are really excited about it — it’s going to bring a lot of people to the area.” The Beloit Casino broke ground in October 2024 and expects to open in the summer of 2026.

Riverfront and lakeside activities in South Beloit
The Rock River flows through both Beloit and South Beloit, where people can kayak along the Rock River Trail. The water trail goes down to Rockford and has launching points at various stops along the riverfront. South Beloit Municipal Park surrounds Lake Victoria, where people can launch non-motorized watercraft. It used to be an old quarry, and the minerals cause the water to stay a vibrant blue. On land, people can walk around the lake, play disc golf or head to the playground. Swimming is not permitted at Lake Victoria, but people can head next door to Pearl Lake instead. “A lot of people scuba dive,” Skridla says. “They’ve got some submerged boats and plane parts that scuba divers really like to explore.”
The Rock River flows through South Beloit down to Rockford, IL.

Getting around and beyond South Beloit
While people can canoe and kayak down the Rock River to get to the other towns along it, going upriver to Beloit or other destinations will require a car. Blackhawk Boulevard and 2nd Street link the city with Beloit, but Interstate 90 cuts through the city's eastern side. This thoroughfare connects the city with Chicago Rockford International Airport, about 28 miles away. South Beloit can get significant snow in the winter, but the city deploys plows to clear the streets.
South Beloit's locally owned restaurants
South Beloit has no clear downtown area, but its local restaurants line Blackhawk Boulevard and Gardner Street. Neli’s Restaurant is a local favorite with a classic American diner feel that serves everything from breakfast to comfort food and burgers. While South Beloit residents have plenty of local restaurants and shops to support, the city doesn’t have any supermarkets. “For grocery shopping, people will typically go to the Walmart in Rockton, which is about 5 to 10 minutes away,” Skridla says. Beloit also has supermarkets like Aldi and Walmart off State Route 81.
Neli's Family Restaurant in South Beloit serves delicious American breakfast meals.

Annual and seasonal events in nearby cities
As a small city, South Beloit doesn’t have many annual events or traditions. However, being close to cities like Beloit and Rockton means residents are just a short drive from entertainment options. Downtown Beloit hosts the Beloit Farmers’ Market every Saturday morning from May to October. With over 130 weekly vendors, it’s the second biggest farmers’ market in Wisconsin and includes live music and face painting. Rockton’s Old Settlers Day is every mid-June and serves as a fundraiser for local charities, featuring concerts and carnival games.
Fresh cut flowers are a popular option for patrons of Beloit Farmers Market.
Face painting is something kids have a blast with at the Beloit Farmers Market.
