World's Largest Mailbox

Reviewed By 982vickif - Dugger, United States

This is a really neat thing to see. In the back there are stairs where you can go up inside the mailbox, but I didn’t do that. My favorite part was all the beautiful flowers and landscaping around and behind the mailbox!

World's Largest Rocking Chair

Reviewed By Biff_Simp - Wilbraham, United States

The giant chair is one of four attractions on 3 of the 4 corners in the heart of town. It is surrounded by a nice flower garden and is on a cross street with lots of free parking... even if you are pulling a trailer or driving an RV I would suggest that you start your visit to Casey here, do the giant wind chimes and teeter totter and work your way down the street after picking up an attraction map at one of the attractions

Casey's Candy Depot

Visit an Old time candy store that features fine chocolates, novelty candies, taffy and fudge. We also stock a variety of gourmet popcorn and gifts Upstairs we have a Year round Christmas store with decor and ornaments representing the "Big Things" in Casey.

Reviewed By Granger7 - Springfield, United States

This was absolutely worth the time! Excellent selection of candy, cool old fashioned glass bottle sodas, handmade chocolates, tons of cool puzzles and books as well as lots of Christmas ornaments. Also the home of the largest wooden clogs! The staff truly care about the visitors and were super kind and accommodating. Right next to the mailbox, and had lots of bathrooms and a cute bridge/pond as well! You can get your pre-stamped post cards here before going to the top of the mailbox! Apparently the post office collects these and stamps them with a special stamp! We mailed ourselves one so that we could see it!

Giant Mouse Trap

Reviewed By urbanguy - Richmond, United States

At the top of this huge mouse trap, it says, "Help Me! I'm Trapped in Casey, Illinois." But, what I found great about this mouse trap is that it's a "replica" of a Victor Mouse Trap, with a red "V" on it. After trying out several brands of mouse traps, Victor is the only one we use in our house.....when necessary. This is a great addition to Casey's "Large Things."
