Property Amenities

The Uplands at Norris, IL is an amazing 80 acre private property that is set up well for your private event! We only rent the property to one group at a time.

You can host your dream wedding, large family reunion, church camp, corporate retreat, sports team building, or any type of memory making event… 

Our Magical Lakefront Sunsets are the Perfect Ending to Your Perfect Day!

The private 30 acre lake is used for swimming, fishing, water skiing, wakeboarding, tubing, sailing, snorkeling, and scuba diving.

We have many kayaks and canoes, but bring your own motorboat or fishing boat… the lake has a 400’ beach, several fishing docks, a jump platform, and 65’ waterslide… 

The Lodge overlooking the lake is fully furnished and has high speed WiFi, 10 bedrooms that sleep 45 people, a great room, livingroom, kitchen, and laundry room along with 5 bathrooms (2 of them are higher capacity). 

The Event Center sits next to the lodge and captures the full view of the lake and picture perfect, waterfront sunsets! Inside the event center is a full court gym for basketball, volleyball, pickleball, 9 square and more… 

The basketball hoops fold up and the 3 huge barn doors of the gym open up to the 80x60 patio outside to create the perfect indoor/ outdoor barn wedding space. Also in the event center are bathrooms, catering kitchen, and 2 high capacity dorm rooms that sleep 25 people each.
