The best parks & outdoor spots in West Frankfort

“Ray Fosse Park packs 27 acres with eight baseball and softball fields, a kid-magnet train-shaped playground, and an outdoor pool that saves July. Great for league nights, pickup practices, or letting the kids run wild while you finally finish that podcast.”

“Whether you're chasing laps, easygoing aqua aerobics, or a pick-up game that feels like high school never ended, Frankfort Community Park packs a 5000 square foot indoor heated pool, a solid weight room, and a four-goal basketball gym that draws players from miles away.”

“Breeding champion Nigerian Dwarf dairy goats since 2011, Cade's Lil' Farm is the local spot for carefully bred stock and raw goat milk that’s rich, clean, and perfect for coffee, cheese, or soap projects. Fun fact, they were Illinois’ first farm certified to sell raw goat milk for human consumption.”
