Why they chose this property
All our rental spaces are located at Pilgrim Park, a secluded and forested valley located just a few minutes off of Interstate 80. The park has over 100 acres of upland forest with a few hiking trails, two creeks running through the site and a small pound that provides ample fishing. Our location makes day trips to Starved Rock and Mattheissen state parks simple and easy. We are also close to the Hennepin Canal State Parkway which provides plenty of fishing oppotunities as well as a bike path appropriate for nearly all ages that extends for dozens of miles.
