You'd think a state having one of the biggest cities in America, while also being one of the most popular tourist destinations would have a few hidden gems.
I don't know about you, but when I try to get away from it all, I really do try to get away from everything. That's kind of the idea. If you agree, there's a cabin I've found hidden in the middle of the woods in central Illinois that looks like a good option.
Of all the experiences in my life, float trips were among my favorites. That's one reason why I wanted to share a canoe or kayak float option that might be the most mellow I've seen in Illinois.
