Homer Lake on Homer Lake Forest Preserve is an 814-acre preserve with scenic trails and a great opportunity for recreation year-round, from sledding in winter to fishing and boating in summer. Homer Lake is home to a horse trail once traveled by Abraham Lincoln, now marked by a Looking for Lincoln wayside exhibit, and a 14-acre site of the early 1900s "destination park" on the Salt Fork River.
