Granite City is so named for its history as a steel manufacturing town, which specialized in steel products made to look like granite. Residential neighborhoods and tourist attractions have since been developed to give this manufacturing town a character of its own. Granite City’s parks are a sight to see, with overflowing greenery and amenities like ice rinks, baseball fields and more. Movies in the park are also a special treat every Friday. The parks especially come to life around the 4th of July with Granite City’s Patriots in the Park events. During this time you’ll get to enjoy lively food markets, horse carriage rides and a spectacular display of fireworks. Accommodation gets snapped up especially quickly during these special occasions, so be sure to keep these great Airbnb vacation rentals in mind!

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 06, 2024.
