We are located in Carroll County Illinois along the Mississippi River at the mouth of the Plum River. Going from north to south, the second automobile bridge between Iowa and Illinois is located just north of Savanna, and is part of the U.S. Highway 52 route. The bridge leads to Sabula, Iowa, which is across the river from Savanna. U.S. Highway 52 goes through Savanna. Several miles to the South of us is Thomson Illinois seen quite a bit in the news recently where the Thomson Prison is located.

Thinking of Relocating? 

Housing is far cheaper in a small town than it is in a large city. The same amount of money can buy you a huge, spacious place in a small town, while it will buy you a one-bedroom tiny flat in a city - which is fine for a young couple, but once you start a family and have children, it is much nicer if they grow up in a house with rooms to themselves.

Savanna is called a Sportsman's Paradise! 

Savanna is located just south of the Mississippi Palisades State Park and you will find hunting, hiking, bike trails, rock climbing, fishing and much more. Savanna is just 150 miles straight West of Chicago, Illinois and is a great place for a weekend trip!

Plan your next family outing in the Savanna area and get close to nature with the miles of hiking and bike trails. Bring your boat and enjoy a day of fishing on the Mississippi River. Or how about a weekend of camping at the Palisades State Park?

You can report your water meter readings on line and see what is coming up on the on-line city calendar. There is a lot of information that you can use as well as many forms that you can complete and submit live on-line in this website.

We hope to make this the website current with so much good information that you may want to make your "home page".
