Tickets were $5, super affordable and there was no long line of waiting for your photo. It was organized well so that you received a number at the beginning, went to the main room to enjoy crafts and cookies and then had your number called when it was your turn! We have also attended the fall festival which is free and SO much fun. Horses, food trucks, children's theater, we love it! Beautiful place to walk around and I'm looking forward to future events here!

(For me, I just did not care for their soup choices, French onion or clam chowder). I had a burger and it was excellent. The only thing to note is cheese and toppings are an add on charge. I got it with the kettle chips and it came with a lot of chips. The dessert menu is huge! I felt the presentation of my cheesecake was gorgeous. Service was fast and attentive. Chef also came out to check on us. They had it decorated like you were sitting in a snow globe. It was cute.

The McAninch Arts Center (MAC) at College of DuPage (COD) in Glen Ellyn, IL, is a vibrant hub for…read morethe performing and visual arts, offering an array of professional theater, music, dance, comedy, and family-friendly performances. While the MAC hosts a wide range of cultural programming year-round, what has drawn us back time and again, now three times, are their exceptional, large-scale art exhibitions, presented every two years. The most recent of these is the 2025 exhibition Hokusai and Ukiyo-e: The Floating World (on view from May 31 to September 21). This immersive experience transports visitors to the lively and refined world of 17th-century Edo-period Japan. The exhibit vividly captures a time when Edo (present-day Tokyo) thrived as the cultural and economic heart of the nation, defined by its devotion to the arts, nature, and the pleasures of daily life. A highlight of the exhibition is the U.S. debut of the Museum Galleries - Chiossone Collection, featuring a remarkable 70-piece selection of ukiyo-e masterpieces. Among these are 53 original paintings and woodblock prints by renowned artists such as Hokusai and Hiroshige, alongside 17 beautifully crafted objects. Together, they offer a captivating window into Japan's "floating world." The MAC consistently excels in delivering these world-class exhibitions. The experience is not only visually stunning but also engaging and educational. The staff are welcoming, knowledgeable, and always ready to enhance your visit. Last, but not the least, there is a very nice gift shop there. We bought some cute Japanese noodles and rice bowls with the "floating world" art theme from the gift shop. Attending an art exhibition there is truly a joy, and we look forward to each new one.

We came for the Hokusai exhibit on a Friday. It was a little hard to find, the address on the flyer…read moredidn't direct us to the right area. Saw some signs near campus but not enough. Was finally able to find it by searching McAninch Arts Center (MAC). The exhibit is cool, loved the eki (train station) stamps for the passport you're given. I wasn't expecting much and it lived up to expectations. After experiencing it do I think it was worth the $27/per person admission? Not for me. But it's still cool and definitely worth a visit if you're an art enthusiast.

Some of our favorite trails are on the east side, but we have so much more the explore! They have a variety of events that are included with admission as well as events that require an additional purchase. There is a small café that sells drinks and small bites. I have tried a few different lattes and they were good. They also have a restaurant and their food always smells delicious, but I have yet to try anything from there. The restaurant itself has a beautiful view of their lake. I definitely recommend a membership if you live nearby and plan to visit multiple times a year. Another great benefit of the membership is the reciprocity to other gardens throughout the country. A great value!

Despite the fact it was cold outside, we enjoyed the various light installations, especially with the freshly fallen snow to set the mood. I didn't take as many pictures this time, I was too busy enjoying the lights - the lantern section this year was my favorite! They do a great job with making sure the path is cleared and there are places you can step off of it so you're out of the way if you want to take pictures or just want to be by an installation for a while. You can't get lost, they have signs and people posted to help make sure foot traffic keeps moving in one direction. I think the cost is fair, if you're a member it's a bit cheaper, but we are not. Giving it 4/5 stars for this last experience because there were supposed to be fire pits along the path but there were none this time, just one heated tent that was packed, so we didn't have another way to warm up a bit during the mile long walk. I do look forward to going again next year!

The Asiago pasta with sun dried tomatoes was popular and went fast. The salad and fruit were fresh, and the sandwiches and pin wheels were delicious. The cheesy eggs were fluffy and the bacon and sausage were crispy and juicy! The yogurt parfait reminded me of what McDonald's use to have, but better. The dessert table had an assortment of cookies, dessert loaves, brownies, kolaches, and chocolates. The staff was wonderful and attentive. Promptly cleared our plates once we were done, as well as a making sure the buffet was in order. I'd come back here and dine at the restaurant for brunch with the girls. Definitely a beautiful venue to keep in mind.

I looked at several other golf clubs and nature arboretums, and Reserve 22 had the best selection BY FAR! We chose a delicious selection of salads, pasta, chicken, salmon, and fruit, and all of my guests RAVED about how delicious it was. We added on a dessert package (came with 6 different desserts!) and the chef accommodated my request to swap out one of the desserts for red velvet cake. Delicious! The other venues we considered had so few options and they looked fairly basic by comparison. This was an easy choice. 3. Price. Compared with other venues (and considering how the food selections paled in comparison), Reserve 22 was better for the budget and yet delivered and EXCEPTIONAL EXPERIENCE! Angela S. was a pleasure to work with, and she was always available to meet and discuss our ideas. Brian oversaw food/beverages on the day of our event, and he was outstanding. Both of them made the day sensational! I can't recommend Reserve 22 enough, and I'll definitely tell my friends the same!

Fast casual Neapolitan pizza?! UMM, BRILLIANT! Get here early or at a non prime lunch/dinner time…read more Service is fast, but if you're looking to dine in it may be difficult to snag a table since this place tends to get very busy. My husband and I dined in for dinner around 5pm. Within 15 minutes of being there it was full of customers dining in and carrying out. Staff members were on top of their game. Even with the influx of customers the quality of their food was A+++ and service remained consistent. Billy Bricks offers appetizers, soups, salads, pizza, pastas, and desserts. It is a great spot for something casual and quick. I tried the betty white arugula (prosciutto on the side) and asked them to cook the dough crispy. It was absolutely perfect. All the ingredients went well together and the pizza dough was fluffy and crisp. Very flavorful and yummy! This is definitely a spot where I will be coming back to.

For our family, WSC serves multiple purposes. My husband is an active tennis player who tries to play at least twice a week. Considering how brutally cold Chicago winters are, it wouldn't be feasible to play outdoors during the winter months. So with WSC, he has been able to find a community of players to play throughout the winter. On the weekends, my husband would give our young girls and cousins private tennis lessons. There are four, all year-round, indoor courts, and eight dome courts for the winter. We have been consistently going every weekend for the last four months and have yet to encounter any availability issues. In addition to tennis, our girls have also joined the swimming lessons. For level 3, there are usually 2-4 instructors. Thus far, we have had a good experience with Ms. Abby, Mr. Christopher, and Ms. Christina. The class size is generally around 8-12 kids depending on attendance. Knowing how young children are, it takes a ton of effort and patience to get them to listen to instructions. Huge kudos to these instructors for having that high-level patience! As for myself, I would utilize the gym equipment such as treadmills, ab machines, and weights. All of the equipment are well maintained and clean. WSC could get busy on the weekends but I have not had trouble with machine availability. All in all, WSC is a solid place for anybody looking for a place to play indoor tennis, have young children who are interested in swimming, and/or just trying to maintain healthy life choices.
