With some great day trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore all that Streator, 20 miles away, has to offer. See the best sights starting with Streator City Park, Anderson Fields Golf Course and Weber House and Garden. Located 30 miles away, Utica is another popular choice. If you visit, make sure you check out Starved Rock State Park, Grand Bear Falls Indoor Water Park and August Hill Winery Tasting Room.
