There's tons of space for kids to run around, explore, and burn off energy without feeling crowded or chaotic. And if you need a little reset yourself, there's always a quiet corner waiting for you. Whether it's a walking path, a bench, or just a peaceful stretch of the gardens, it's one of those rare places where you can step away, clear your head, and just breathe for a while. Beautiful grounds, relaxing atmosphere, and something for everyone. I came for a walk and left feeling lighter. Cantigny really is a little escape hiding in plain sight.

I can't say enough amazing things about Sylwia and her team - our day went off without a hitch and she thought of every small detail. She listened to what I wanted (even if it was slightly outrageous), and delivered in every way. She planned every detail and was able to handle a very energetic bridal party and members of the family. We had a 300 person Polish wedding, and Sylwia was so organized and efficient throughout it all. Somehow, she was everywhere all at once and juggled so many tasks. We are so happy we chose Rebel & Lace Events to coordinate our wedding. Sylwia also has decorator experience, and helped me with some centerpiece details at my venue. It all looked so beautiful.

Great staff, great food, great venue! I just had my wedding at Glendale Lakes Golf Club this last…read moreweekend. I booked them a mere 10 weeks prior to my wedding and their event coordinator was very accommodating. We had about 30 guests attend and the Grill Room and attached dining area was just the right size for us. Since we were a smaller group as far as weddings go, many other local venues didn't want our business or didn't want to give us a Saturday date. Glendale Lakes, however, not only gave us Saturday - they gave us fantastic service as well. We held the ceremony in the Grill Room, then moved everyone to the dining area (separated by a wall from the ceremony room), while the DJ and dance floor people set up in the ceremony room. Once everything was set up, the wall between the two rooms was removed and it became one large room. The transition was seamless and did not detract from dinner. The rooms were beautiful (no hideous casino carpet here) and reasonably priced. We had considered similar venues that were 2 or 3 times the cost and decided we'd rather pocket the cash and save by having our wedding here instead! The mantle over the fireplace in the Grill Room was breathtaking once decorated with flowers and candles. It made a gorgeous backdrop to the photos of my groom and I seeing each other for the first time that evening. If you're considering having your wedding here, visit the rooms when they are set up for a wedding - they "show" so much better when they are decorated. The dinner food was AMAZING. I usually hate wedding food and grab some takeout afterwards, but this place delivered! We offered our guests the filet (steak), garlic chicken, and salmon. We heard rave reviews on all 3 dishes, and I personally ate as much garlic chicken as my corseted dress would allow me to pack in! They have a patio area out back that was just gorgeous for photos. We were there during sunset, and the sky was lit up pink and blue behind us in many of our pictures. Just a few things were disappointing: The venue has a few party rooms, and the one next to us was LOUD. My dinner was accompanied by blaring music leaking through the wall. They could use better soundproofing between their rooms. During my dad's toast, all some of us could hear was the polka beat from next door. Glendale Lakes gets points for trying to quiet the other party down a bit during our dinner, but they weren't successful. And my other complaint is that they only served the chocolate part of my cake! During the cake cutting, my husband and I cut a chunk out of the vanilla center, but in the kitchen they only cut up and served the chocolate part. When I complained, they apologized and told us they didn't know there were different flavors. That's a hard sell with me - my husband and I had already cut a chunk out of the middle layer, revealing the vanilla inside. How do they miss that? I specifically ordered a two-flavor cake to cater to people who prefer one flavor or another, so I was disappointed to see chocolate getting served exclusively. Overall, Glendale Lakes is great for small groups (and for big groups, too, by the looks of the party next door to ours). My wedding was beautiful and I'm thrilled they came through for us.

Each time the guests were impressed with the food. This particular review will reflect on the most recent event we held here, our 4 year old daughter's birthday. The staff was amazing. Nancy the banquet coordinator was very attentive and helpful through out the entire process. She had designated two helpers which were on point for the entire event. One girl's name was Haley and unfortunately I did not get the other girls name. They were there from the very beginning to help us decorate the room. They stayed close by throughout the duration of the party and helped clean up at the end. The food was delicious. They have a rule that they only are able to keep the buffet food out for two hours to ensure quality. I requested it be served at 11:30 but not all of our guests had arrived yet, so they took the initiative to delay serving it until more people had arrived. Fantastic. When it was being served it was hot and delicious. We chose the Salad, Salisbury steak, chicken dumplings, mac and cheese, buttery corn nibblets, dinner rolls and apple crumb cake to be served. I also had two guests that needed to eat gluten free due to food allergies and (with prior notification) the chef had accommodated them wonderfully. The girls also came around frequently offering refills on pepsi products, juices, or water. Lunch was a hit. Unfortunately they did not allow us to box up the remainder buffet food to send home with the guests as it is against their policy. Perhaps, in future they can draft up a waiver that allows the guests to take the food but not hold the hall responsible in case someone gets sick. The atmosphere in the big hall (i believe it's called the fonte room) is much more pleasing than the smaller hall. The smaller one is long and narrow and completely carpeted. It lacks natural light but, does have a very charming faux fire place and mantle which serves as a great photo opt spot. The bigger hall is beautifully lit with natural light and has a beautiful damask wallpaper design on one wall. It's also half carpet and half wood which serves as a great dance floor. Another great party at a great venue. On top of having great prices we even got a discount for being returning customers. Thanks Glendale Lakes!

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.

We went on a Saturday and had a great time. We did a tasting and gravitated toward the sweeter wines, which were enjoyable. We ended up purchasing their year-round Oktoberfest wine. If you prefer sweeter wines, this is a good spot for you. One thing to note is that they stop serving earlier than the posted closing time. At first, our server told us we only had 30 minutes for the tasting, so we felt a bit rushed. My husband asked again, and another staff member clarified that we actually had more time, which was a relief and allowed us to slow down and enjoy it. They provide breadsticks, and there are snacks available for purchase. I'm really looking forward to going back in the summer to enjoy the outdoor patio, which looks huge. The inside, however, felt smaller than expected. There are essentially two main rooms, plus a standing bar, a seated bar, a hallway with seating, and an exclusive members-only area.
