Golconda Lock and Dam 51 Homes offers a unique vacation getaway in Golconda, Illinois, featuring beautifully restored historic homes that overlook the Ohio River. Originally built in the late 1920s to house lockkeepers for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, these homes have been meticulously renovated to provide comfortable overnight lodging while preserving their original architectural charm.

After being abandoned for nearly two decades, the properties were revitalized through a partnership between the City of Golconda and Main Street Golconda, ensuring the homes were restored to their former glory. Today, visitors can enjoy a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life in these picturesque accommodations, perfect for special occasions or a relaxing retreat.
