America's Best in Murphysboro. However, its not the Trump palace.
Take your own minnows too. Only one bait shop around and I am not impressed.
Never been their before. Got about 8 buddies going on this fishing trip. Looking to stay in some cabins on the water. Any help would be gratefully appreciated

Cabins at the marina are very nice went down with 4 guys and stayed in a cabin. You can rent a slip from the marina for $10 a day or depending on timing leave boat at the courtesy docks for free, Motel in town is a dive we have stayed there to in the past, would stay there as last resort.
There are two bait shops. The marina and Frank's
I second djcoop52. Have stayed at the cabins also. They are not on the water though, pretty close. Cabins have outlets on the outside also.
Not aware of any place to stay on the lake.
Pretty lake. Deep, clear. Lots of submerged weeds, cork and Jig above the weeds?
Some nice waterfalls their also.
Drinkin coffee, missin fish.
If you go to franks for bait make sure and order how many you are going to need because at franks 2 dozen is 24 minnows he counts minnows not scoops. Buddies of mine were used to paying for 3 and getting 5 at home.
You can cook your own food in the cabins eat at the Marina if restaurant is open or run back to town ( about 10 minute ride) we always go at least one night to town 17th street barbecue cold beer and good food.
There is a fish farm close by also. Sometimes you can get them by the pound there.
