Great place to play Pokemon go, the playground is very crowded though so I usually just do laps on the trail

Great Park with a lovely pond and walking path around it. Does tend to flood and get muddy in the lower half of the park when it rains.

Some of the best trail running in the state of IL. The mile markers outside of Sterne's Woods approximate the cross-country 5k course, which starts in the "bowl," climbs the hill , then circles south.

My 17 month old daughter loves this park . The splash pad and park are fabulous.

Gayle Stone

there are 4 trails for walking or riding bikes . Many little side trails to explore! Wear long sleeves and long pants as the bugs/plants can be a little much sometimes!

The two photos of the area surrounding the baseball field--one with snow, one without--were taken on the same day...in April.

Cross country runners...if you have never run here, you should come. Meadow and wooded trails are special.

The Splash Pad runs Memorial Day to Labor Day 9am - 7pm. Water is off daily 11:30am - 12:30pm and 3:30pm - 4:30pm.

Butter burgers are great. The custard is strange and gritty sometimes like it is from a mix... To place an order stand your ground, people are scattered all over waiting to order at busy times . - Chelsea Dolko
