Fox River, north Illinois are users?
Algonquin is as far as you can go.

Just north of the Barrington launch is the Broken Oar Bar and Grill. They serve a good burger. Passing north through the locks you will want to eat at Vickie's Place in McHenry, good food in general. Continuing north into the Chain O' Lakes you can go to the state line. Several good restaurants are in the Chain area. Blarney Island is in Grass Lake - No children allowed. It is a bar with panties covering the ceiling... if you get my drift. Go to the Watertower Marina in McHenry and pick up some guides to the Chain that will include restaurants marina's etc. Have fun, watch out for the Lake Michigan size cruisers and drunks. That is the weirdest thing. The river is like 5 foot deep, and you would think these HUGE boats would never venture in these types of waters, yet they do!! Weird! Yeah I know about the drunks. I will probably stay away from the chain of lakes. Really though, can I take the fox river to the state line? or the lakes themselves? I looked at a map, and the fox river looked really small by the chain. And going south, how far can I get passed Elgin? All the way to the big river? Anything to see passed Elgin (south of Elgin?) Thanks Dan |
