"Very cool place to hike around and look at ancient burial mounds."
"Rode our bikes up, not a lot to see but a fascinating place historically."
"This is my first hope well-mound visits of all the mound builders. It was great. Clear recognizable mounds. A great view of the Mississippi in the middle of beautiful forest."
"Very sacred and holy place. Was an honor to walk where our true fore fathers and mothers brought their loved ones to walk to the other side. May the Great Spirit always keep this Sacred Burial Ground exactly as it is...please be respectful if you visit this place and leave nothing behind but maybe slight footprints..."
"Rick, Jeana, and I went riding to Nauvoo Nauvoo Illinois Saturday. Hopewell Mounds is a cemetery on a hill by the Mississippi. At it's entrance is houses you can rent while vacationing."
