Waukegan Savanna Forest Preserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 I've been going there with my dog since 2008, so 9 years now... I used to go out there twice a day, 7 days a week. 3 miles a pop. It's nothing special to the visitor, but like everything else in Wadsworth, it has it own distinctive charm once you become a local. I recently had to move to Chicago...

American Eagle
Roller coaster
👍👍 Great roller coaster and arguably one of the icons at this Six Flags. Rides rough and bumpy due to its age but it's still a blast. Highly recommend you ride on the last cart. When you go down the first hill, you'll get a small second of freefall which is pretty cool.

Larsen Nature Preserve And Dog Park
Dog park
👍👍 Love this dog park because it is broken up into three sections: an area for small dogs, medium dogs (with an agility course), and for larger dogs. HOWEVER, always watch your pups because I have seen larger dogs jump over the fence. Not to hurt other dogs, simply out of excitement, but always better...

Lake Carina Forest Preserve
Nature preserve
😠 If you're looking for a place for a peaceful walk, this is not it. You can hear the wonderful heavy traffic of the highway RIGHT next to the trail.
If you're looking for nice trails to run/ride a bike on, this is not it.
It's a grass trail that gets HEAVILY muddy when a drop of water touches the g...

Yeoman Park
Park
😐 Nice looking place, green grass, full trees, child's area etc. but a lot of trashy people and homeless druggies roaming. Also a lot of drug deals happening right in front of children's eyes. Drug liter and a lot of loud cars.
