Hidden Gems of Cherry Valley

I was out for a walk along the Kishwaukee River valley the other day and stumbled upon a few spots that I had never noticed before, and it got me thinking about all the underrated places in our village that locals love but visitors might not know about. Since we have such a beautiful area with a relatively low commute time of 24 minutes to work, I'm guessing many of us have had the chance to explore and find our own favorite hidden gems. What's your favorite underrated spot in Cherry Valley?
