A heartfelt THANK YOU to each and every one of you for your continued support. Your engagement and enthusiasm not only inspire us but also help promote the beauty and charm of the Rend Lake area.
This support means the world to us and strengthens our mission to make Rend Lake a premier destination for visitors. We're excited to keep sharing more adventures, events, and stories that highlight our wonderful area.
Here’s a breif summary of where we have been and the direction we are heading with the help of our Community and great visitors like all of you! If you ever have questions about the CVB don’t hesitate to reach out to us at (618) 435-4000 or [email protected].
“The Rend Lake Area Convention and Visitor’s Bureau (CVB) was established to
promote the diverse tourism opportunities
in and around Rend Lake, a 19,000-acre
reservoir surrounded by 20,000 acres of
public land. Located in Franklin County,
just 4 hours south of the Chicagoland
area, Rend Lake is truly a hidden gem of
Illinois, offering an abundance of
recreational activities such as fishing,
boating, camping, hiking, and wildlife
observation.
The CVB emerged from the Rend Lake
Area Tourism Council following a
successful certification process through
the Illinois Office of Tourism. This
certification allows us to access state
funding and expand our efforts to attract
visitors, conventions, and events to our
region.
Our mission is to highlight the natural
beauty, outdoor adventures, and unique
cultural experiences that make the Rend
Lake area a must-visit destination.
However, this wouldn't be possible without
the invaluable support of our lodging
partners and the strong community
backing from local municipalities,
governmental bodies, and nonprofit
organizations. Their collaboration ensures
that we can continue to grow tourism,

The Rend Lake Area Tourism Council got some photos at Wayne Fitzgerald State Park Illinois Department of Natural Resources and the Rend Lake Dam West Public Use Area Rend Lake Project Office/ Visitor Center. The colors were different tonight, what's did you see?
🌌☄️🌝🌚🌠This weekend, you can catch the Northern Lights right here in the Rend Lake Project Office/ Visitor Center area! Thanks to a big solar storm, the aurora borealis is putting on a show far south of its usual turf. These storms happen when the Sun throws out a bunch of solar wind and magnetic fields. When these hit Earth, they light up our sky in amazing colors.
📱📸🤳And here's a pro tip: use your phone camera to snap pictures. Phones today are great at taking pics in low light, and they can capture colors and details of the aurora that our eyes usually miss. Just tweak your camera settings to let in more light, and you’ll get some stunning shots to share!
These were taken over the last hour all around Rend Lake!

🌒✨ Behind the Scenes at Rend Lake: Eclipse Edition ✨🌘
Hey, Rend Lake explorers! While you’re gearing up for the celestial event of the year on April 8th, our dedicated team here at the Rend Lake Area Tourism Council is working overtime – yes, even on a Saturday! – to ensure everything is perfect for our upcoming Solar Eclipse Spectacular. 🚀🌌
In the spirit of preparation (and a bit of fun), we’ve all donned our stylish eclipse glasses a bit early! Because why wait for the main event to practice "vision safety"? 😎 Plus, it’s never too early to start looking cool, right? Remember, folks, safety never takes a day off – especially when it involves witnessing the awe-inspiring dance of the sun and moon. 🌞🌚
We can’t wait to share this once-in-a-lifetime experience with you. Stay tuned for more updates, and get ready for an event that’s sure to be out of this world! 🌍➡️🌑
