While you won’t find a major museum or a professional sports team or a national landmark in Forsyth, you will find those attractions — and many more — within easy reach.

Forsyth’s central location and its proximity to major highways mean that the “bright lights of the big city” are just a comfortable daytrip away. Whether you’re taking the kids to see the Gateway Arch in St. Louis or an Indianapolis Colts football game, or whether you’re treating yourself to a day at the world-renowned Chicago Art Museum, you know that you can be back in Forsyth in plenty of time for the nightly television news.

Even closer to home are the university towns of Bloomington and Champaign-Urbana, as well as Springfield, the Illinois state capital and hometown of Abraham Lincoln.

Not far from here… to there
Forsyth is a hop, skip, and jump from two major highways, making it the perfect starting point for dozens of fun and interesting day trips.
