Big Cedar Whitetails

At Big Cedar Whitetails, we set out to create the hunting experience we always wanted but rarely found—world-class whitetail hunting, a lodge built for hunters, great food, and a staff that treats you right. Located in West Central Illinois, one of the nation’s premier destinations for trophy whitetails, our goal is to deliver exceptional hunts in a welcoming atmosphere. Founded nearly two decades ago, Big Cedar Whitetails has grown from a small guiding operation into a full lodge dedicated to serious hunters. Today, we continue that vision—providing a place where hunters can focus on the pursuit, enjoy good company, and know they’ll be taken care of from the moment they arrive. Our hunts are in high demand—2025 is already completely booked, with limited spots remaining for 2026. Secure your place now while availability lasts.
