Four Rivers Environmental Education Center — Attraction in Illinois

Nice place. Big information center there. It's sort of geared towards children and families. Great place for bird watching. Migratory water birds, eagles, swans, the usual local birds, I've seen a bunch of them. I recently went fishing there (fishing spot was on the driveway into the place, I don't think there is fishing AT the place. Might not even be allowed.) i caught a decent catfish. Four rivers meet there. Bird watching, walking paths and canoeing and kayaking opportunities abound. The information center has a lot of potential. Not sure they have everything set just yet. I went in and didn't get a sense of what I was supposed to do or see. Not terrible, far from it, just not set up for a visitor to have a clear sense of what they should do. When they do that, it's an easy 5 star review. If you're local and know what you're doing there, fir like a club or event or activity then it's probably already a 5 star...

Petals, Custom Wedding Flowers has worked with Mary and Her staff at Four Rivers for a number of years. We couldn't be happier! They are always professional, organized, friendly and ALWAYS helpful. Four Rivers is situated on one of the most beautiful properties in Will County and the they know how to utilize it to the max. We have done outdoor country wedding on the grounds and in the outdoor pavilion which were beautiful. Inside the great hall, you just can't wrong with all those windows and the beautiful view of the Rivers.

We have been involved with many venues in our business and Four Rivers is one...

Very clean and beautiful grounds. Nice walking paths. The educational center has interactive children's activities they can play with as they learn. The front desk had a knowledgeable conservationist, she was genuinely happy (even excited) to answer my daughter's questions. It's great to have people that are driven to teaching others about conservation and nature. Absolutely awesome experience.

Visited today for "Mammal Madness," the event was awesome! My kids fully enjoyed it. They are already talking about how many more animals they get to see next time. Looking forward to further events at the...
