When completed in the mid-1800s, the canal revolutionized trade and travel by connecting the Illinois River to Lake Michigan, creating a direct link from Chicago to St. Louis and beyond. This historic waterway opened the floodgates for commerce, culture, and community across the Midwest—and Basecamp lets you experience this rich legacy in comfort and style.Basecamp is professionally managed by Harbor Inn Vacation Rentals, your local team at Heritage Harbor dedicated to making your stay unforgettable.

Very good

Great little place. We stayed early in the week to hike starved rock so there was not a lot of action in the resort. We were a little bummed the blind wouldn’t stay up in the loft and there was no needle on the record player. That’s not enough to keep me from giving it a good review though. Would stay again.
