PICKLEBALL, Heated Pool, Game Room, Outdoor Oasis, Tennis, Basketball, & woods!

Blue Creek Resort is nestled in the heart of Pike County, Illinois - known to many as the Whitetail Deer hunting capital of the world. Whether you choose to drive in or fly in to the local airport, Blue Creek is just minutes away.

Added in 2023 - Pickleball! The tennis and basketball courts now have pickleball for you to enjoy. We have some generic paddles but encourage you to bring your own rackets if you are a seasoned player.

If you enjoy hunting and would like to have an experience in Pike County, please give us a call. Blue Creek's farm can comfortably accommodate up to 4 hunters at one time. We also have guests who hunt other farms in the area, but would like to bring extended family and take advantage of the private time away. Blue Creek Resort is perfect for you!
Whatever the time of year, or your heart's desire, Blue Creek Resort is calling and we would love to host you!

As you enter the resort, you may be greeted by one of the many deer who visit, or a flock of turkeys on their way to somewhere. Kids and adults, alike, enjoy the full basketball court, and regulation tennis court. If sports is not your game, you may want to take a nice stroll through the woods, or travel to Lake Pittsfield a short 2 mile drive where you can fish. This is a beautiful area for you to cast a reel, or simply sit and enjoy the wilderness that surrounds you.

In the summer and warmer months of the year, the 20x56 pool is open for your pleasure. Many guests enjoy sitting under the pavilion watching a baseball game while the kids swim. You may also wish to turn off the TV and turn on the outside stereo system. The lights on the courts will allow you to play games long after darkness has arrived.

There are so many amenities that come with the property, but the best Blue Creek Resort has to offer is the peace and serenity of your own private oasis. While you are a guest at Blue Creek, the entire resort belongs to you.
It is the perfect setting for a small venue wedding, family reunion, or informal business gathering. There is plenty of space surrounding the outdoor recreation area perfect for a small gathering.

The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 5 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 7 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. The bathroom offers a jetted tub, hair dryers, and bidets. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a fireplace.
