Judged against other parks IL has to offer this is a good one. It has a decent sized lake that can be fished or kayaked. There is an okay selection of gravel trails and picnic areas. A big man-made hill (from what I assume is material dredged from the original marsh to make it a lake) offers a decent view of the surrounding area. All in all if your stuck in the Prairie State,and especially the west suburbs this is a decent place to spend some time with kids and family.

Its a nice little forest preserve but not kept up very well. I noticed a broken bench and trash on the ground. The bike trail around the lake is kind of short, only a couple miles do I had to ride my bike around it multiple times for a decent ride. There is a big hill with a few trails thats good for hiking, running or cycling up for an extra workout and it has a nice view at the top.

Oakhurst has lots of green space for all kinds of fun activities. Run wild on trails that weave in and out of the trees and sled down one of the largest hills in the burbs. Covered eating area, outdoor fireplace, restrooms, and plenty of parking. No matter the season, youre bound to have fun at Oakhurst!

Lots of fun trails that are short and sweet. Lots of shade to rest if needed. Outdoor bathrooms are pretty good for a Forest Preserve. Lots of parking, 2 pavilions, outdoor grill, fireplace, lots of picnic benchesall around the lake and near parking.

A lovely spot for getting away from the city a bit. There are some nice trails and good pond-fishing here. Also this is a typical Pokemon GO nest location (in case you care)

Its a nice place that most people dont realize is even there. You can fish with or without a boat, hike, go jogging, have a picnic, or just hang out in nature.

Great for walks, educational trips for kids, pictures, and fun! Pretty and has adequate parking.

Scary place, dont jog there. Just kidding. Nice lake. Never fished there, maybe someday.

I like going on walks here but, it can be a bit sketchy. I dont suggest going at night
