This extraordinary forest preserve is worth a visit any time of the year. Becuase of this season's heavy snowfalls, not all of the paths had been cleared. You could tell from tracks in the snow that this did not stop visitors with appropriate footwear from striking out across the terrain. During this particular visit, ice skating was forbidden, but ice fishing was going on. I couldn't resist taking photos of groups of fisherpeople scattered across the lake -- some drilling holes as I watched. The thaw is coming. Because this property is so large and has so much parking, it is very easy to social distance during your visit. See earlier reviews for more details (May 9, 2020; July 18, 2017; and September 4, 2016).

The Antioch Theater is a great place to see a movie. I can practically walk to it. The price is right. Since the remodel they started taking credit cards. The staff are friendly. Free refills on popcorn! What more could I want?
4. 60 to Escape
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 276 reviews
The rules here are so simple that they're laid out right in the business's name: 60 to Escape. Small groups of friends, family members, or coworkers are locked in a room, where they have only an hour to use problem-solving skills and teamwork to escape. Players can select from a variety of scenarios to challenge themselves with.

We’ve gone twice. The first time we went with all my siblings & their Significant others for a “Sibling game night”. We did the hidden Temple room. It was so much fun. There were 7 of us in the room so we were a little cramped in the beginning when we were trying to get out of the 1st room but then we were able to spread out. It was amazing. Room after room. So much to do and see. We loved it. We were able to make it out of the Hidden temple with 5 mins. Left. Loved it so much we had to go again with our kids. We did the mystery manor with our 3 kids (17,15,&8). They loved it. Because we had an 8 year old we were able to have to room to ourselves and not have to buy all the tickets. We were able to get out of that room too with 8 mins left. I can’t wait to go back and do another one... we really love going and we hope to try them all. They are so well done and so fun!

6. Genesee Theatre
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 267 reviews
The historic Genesee Theatre is a 2,400 seat entertainment venue located in Waukegan, Illinois. Located along the northern shore of Lake Michigan between Chicago and Milwaukee, the Genesee Theatre is a hub of activity for Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin. Hosting a variety of music, comedy, and dance, the Genesee marks Waukegan as a destination for high-quality entertainment once reserved for major cities. The Genesee was built in 1927 as a vaudeville stage and movie palace before being restored in 2004 to its modern glory as a live entertainment venue boasting one of the largest stages in the Midwest, an acoustically dynamic auditorium, and a beautifully restored grand lobby for intimate and elegant events.

On Friday night a Whitney Houston tribute show singer Belinda Davis gave a fantastic performance. It was like something you would see in Las Vegas. The theater is absolutely beautiful and has great acoustics. They have great artist there. Check out there shows that are coming. The prices are Fantastic. Very good Shows coming up. Buy your tickets at the box office and save a lot of money.

I like the movie theater because it is never crowded (at least when we choose to attend), clean, has good selection of movies and nice atmosphere. I wish they have Starbucks inside as I prefer to drink good coffee with croissant instead of eating popcorn

Grew up swimming at Rosewood and lesser known Ravine Drive. Both are decent beaches to cool off in and Rosewood is fairly big.
