Scanning Google Maps to find things for girls weekend, I stumbled about Water Town Park in Beloit. It is named for the old stone water town. After seeing the stone water tower in Whitewater, I was intrigued to see this one.
Calling it a park may be a long shot. There is no easy way to get to the water tower. The water town sits on top of a hill. There is an apartment complex behind it with no public parking. The only street parking is below the water tower or across a busy intersection.
We ended parking in a small strip mall. The Dairy Queen might have been an option if it was open. We then hiked up the side of the hill. It was all very weird.
When we got to the top of the hill, there was a walkway around the Water Tower. It was slightly more accessible than the one in Whitewater.
We could actually look into the water tower. It is falling apart but it was still cool to look at.
If you can find a place to park, it is definitely worth checking out. It may not be much but the history is always fun to look at.
