Monee Reservoir, Monee, IL

Monee Reservoir in Monee, Illinois, features a 90-acre lake surrounded by 238 acres of public land managed by the Will County Forest Preserve District. Anglers can fish for largemouth bass, bluegill, and channel catfish from the shoreline or the 300-foot fishing pier. A one-mile crushed-limestone trail loops the lake, connecting to the 4.1-mile Plum Creek Greenway Trail that extends south to Crete. Picnic shelters, a sand beach for swimming, and a playground sit near the main parking area, while a separate lot serves boaters launching non-motorized craft. Restrooms and drinking fountains operate seasonally, and the preserve stays open daily from sunrise to sunset. The reservoir lies less than three miles from Interstate 57, placing it within a 40-minute drive of downtown Chicago and roughly 15 minutes from the Matteson retail corridor along U.S. Route 30.
