London Mills offers a quiet, river-town rhythm with the Spoon River winding along its edge and Illinois Route 116 providing easy access to larger hubs like Galesburg and Peoria. Straddling both Fulton County and Knox County, the community blends small-town familiarity with the convenience of nearby shopping, healthcare, and entertainment. You’ll find a mix of well-kept farmhouses, classic ranch homes, and properties with room to roam—ideal for anyone seeking elbow room without sacrificing connectivity.
Families appreciate the local schools, with students served by Spoon River Valley CUSD 4, known for personal attention, active extracurriculars, and community pride. Weekends often revolve around the water—paddling and fishing on the Spoon River—or quick drives to natural areas like Snakeden Hollow State Fish and Wildlife Area for hiking, wildlife viewing, and clear-water lakes. History and culture are close at hand at the Dickson Mounds Museum, where exhibits and programs illuminate the region’s deep Native American heritage.
Each fall, the area comes alive for the Spoon River Valley Scenic Drive, a beloved countywide event of crafts, flavors, and music—London Mills is a favorite stop for apple butter, artisan goods, and friendly conversation.
