Des Plaines, IL
Just twenty miles from the center of Chicago, Des Plaines, Illinois is a happening suburb that truly has something for everyone.
Situated on the Des Plaines River, Des Plaines is an outdoor lover's paradise. The Des Plaines River Trail features hiking and bicycling paths, and in the winter months draws cross-country skiers and snowmobilers. Autumn is a particularly wonderful time on the river, as the leaves glow in fiery shades of red, orange and yellow.

The Golf Center is the perfect place to work on your game year-round, with its 80 heated hitting stations. There is also a 9-hole, a fully-lighted course that's ideal for a quick game after work.
Families can always find something to do in Des Plaines. Fall Fest is a great throwback-style community event with carnival rides and games, a country food tent, and even a pie-eating contest! During the summer months, families love to cool off at Mystic Waters, one of the largest water parks in Northern Illinois. Thrill-seekers can conquer Mystic Waters' two 37-foot slides, while tamer members of the family can relax on the lazy river or in Dolphin Bay, a zero-depth leisure pool. Summer in Des Plaines also brings Live at the Lake, a weekly free concert at Lake Park.
