How to Use This Lake Camelot, Illinois Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lake Camelot, Illinois. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Illinois or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Lake Camelot.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Lake Camelot, Illinois

Lake Camelot is a locality in Peoria County, Illinois, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,798. The population density is 398.7 people per km². Lake Camelot is located at 40.6351°N, 89.7530°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 61547.

Lake Camelot defines the horizon through a deliberate intersection of water and earth, where the West Branch Lamarsh Creek carves a persistent, winding path through the local topography. It lies 6.9 miles northwest of Pekin, IL (from Pekin, IL: bearing 309°T), and is situated 9.1 miles west-southwest of Peoria. This inland expanse is defined by the proximity of Lake Lancelot, which mirrors the expansive Illinois sky and anchors the immediate landscape. Beyond the water, the terrain stretches toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Hoxie Ridge, while the sheltered depressions of Heaton Hollow suggest the deeper, ancient geological shifts of the region. The air here carries the scent of damp soil and seasonal change, a quiet humidity that clings to the late afternoon as the light lengthens across the prairie grass.

Lake Camelot functions as a distinct PPRK, maintaining a protected stillness that guards the integrity of the surrounding acreage. The economy remains tethered to the rhythmic demands of the land, reflecting the broader patterns of the downstate agricultural corridor where the cycles of planting and harvest dictate the pace of the year. While the reach of Sand Ridge State Forest lies further to the west, its presence influences the local sense of scale, reminding residents of the vast, wooded tracts that once dominated this interior plains environment. Daily life in Lake Camelot proceeds with a steady, unforced gravity, marked by the simple persistence of the creek and the enduring quietude of the protected grounds.
