    The lifeguard was oblivious for only residents in their community allowed to use a small beach area that consisted of not even a range of 50 people. He deliberately ignored the fact of travelers coming to enjoy the beautiful beach and all of its surroundings by the statement,” You are not allowed inside since you are not an resident of the town there within”; β€œ You have traveled from Wisconsin and I cannot allow you pass regardless of how long and how far you have driven”. That is oblivious and recommend having this beach objectified and purged of it bias rules.

    The beach needs a good clean up. There is bits of garbage and lots of animal feces and plastic all over the beach Water is full of algae that needs to be somehow removed Needs attention

    It's a nice spot to hang out with your friends during summer, but the beach itself is nasty, haven't gone back here in years because of it.

    Nice little park Too bad some people have no respect and leave their empty beer cans on the ground and not in the garbage cans.

    It would be helpful to add information or a picture of the rules. Is it open to the public and is it free? Are dogs allowed?

    Nice hidden gem. Not at all crowded on a 90Β° Sunday. The water in the swimming area is really shallow, it would be nice if it were a little deeper at the far end, but it's great for kids. There's no bathroom facility (has 1 port-a-potty) so had to ride home in wet swimsuits. The shelter and beach were clean though.

    We came here Sunday morning. There is only one porta potty and it was filthy and just completely disgusting. Used bloody tampons everywhere. The water was very warm and there's a fair amount of sand area as well as shaded grassy areas. If there were clean bathrooms available we would return. But after seeing there is not we will not be coming back. Just disgusted. Can't spend a day at the beach with no clean restrooms.

    It a good place to pass the time with family great for kids. The water did get a bit dirty at one point but it expected with the amount of people swimming there.

    UPDATED July 2022 Came here today to find an attendant on duty checking for ID to prove you were residents of Lake in The Hills. I didn’t know it was supposed to be for residents only, since I don’t see any signs. ORIGINAL REVIEW As newcomers to the area we are checking out local attractions, and this beach on Lake In The Hills seems really well maintained. Clearly cleaned and looked after, it's a very nice quite place to relax.

    It’s a beautiful small beach. Enjoy your walk or spend time building a castle with your little ones. We had a beautiful evening. The place can definitely get a good clean up.

  • 5/5 Lisa C. 5 years ago on Google β€’ 44 reviews
    My kids love this place! No bathrooms so I have to remember my travel potty. The water is ok, not pool clean obviously but, it's so much fun. It's roped off and most people stay within the rope. We go here often.

  • 5/5 Alioht C. 2 years ago on Google
    Just the right little secluded spot to sit on the sand relax with friends and splash a bit..!

  • 5/5 Jennifer M. 3 years ago on Google
    What a treasure! I've lived in the far west suburbs for 16 years and didn't know about this beach until today. Small swim area and beach, small park with a couple benches. One covered picnc area and a port a potty. Parking lot near beach. Sand wasn't the cleanest, but I didn't see broken glass, just some plastic bits and Cheerios. Even in Covid times, we had plenty of room to social distance.

  • 5/5 A K M Shariful I. 3 years ago on Google
