👍👍 I recently moved to the neighborhood and got a puppy, Zelda, and we both LOVE Timberlake. Even in the dead of winter it’s beautiful and charming. My pup loves the snow and there are always doggie bags there in case you forget yours at home which is really appreciate. The neighborhood and people are...

👍 You can drive up to the top of this hill and then walk around. There is also a walk around trail at the bottom. It is only open from 11am-6pm on the weekends, May through October. This is a good place for just a quick look or maybe a picnic. Not much to do, but you really can see downtown Chicago!

👍👍 This place is great. I’m in IL on business and am so glad I found this place. What a beautiful day! I did the White Oak trail and it was great. The trail was wide and parts where shady, sunny, and hilly. So I felt like I was hiking. I walked and ran the trail. Will be going back tomorrow and wheneve...

👍👍 It's a great place for hiking or just walking. It's also the best place to see the fall colors over the lake in our area. If you get there at the right week, usually the 3rd week, in October.

👍👍 We love how big this preserve is! There is a hill to walk up and lakes to see. A lot of designated picnic areas and port-a-potties. Ability to rent kayaks, paddleboats, go to the archery range or fish. Highly recommended if you are looking for a place to explore.

👍 Kind of far from where I was staying. Went for a family sporting outing. My nephew Henry belted a double down the right field line, driving in a run and turning the tide of the game to seal a victory for Elmhurst Extreme U14. Overall very pleased with the visit.
