Named with a wink to seasoned sailors and weathered travelers, Old Salt is part of the Navvy Town neighborhood—a tribute to the workers who built the Illinois & Michigan Canal. This critical 19th-century waterway connected the Illinois River to Lake Michigan, reshaping commerce and culture across the Midwest. From goods to ideas to people, the I&M Canal moved it all—and your stay at Old Salt is your own chapter in a long legacy of exploration and connection.

Summary: Beautiful home and stay. Felt like they owners thought of everything.Everything was clean. We did find a toe nail and a used Qtip on the ground. But other then that is was a beautiful few days. We walked on the trails and went back to a cozy, tiny home. :)
