Our family loves Opossum Creek! The campground is updated, clean & easy to get to. Lake Shelbyville offers amazing water related activities. The surrounding communities have opportunities that you won’t find anyplace else. Sullivan is close by & offers the Little Theater on the Square, a live performance theater. Shelbyville has Cross Country trails that my runners love to hate. Shelbyville Dam is a fun place to visit. The Roxy Theater in Shelbyville shows new movies at a family friendly price. Opossum Creek is a short 45 minute drive from the heart of Illinois Amish Country, Arthur. Trust me, you will not be disappointed by booking a reservation at Opossum Creek.
