Location
Get Directions
Lake Forest is a thriving city in the North Shore suburbs, positioned about thirty miles from the Chicago Loop. Full of swanky homes and upscale apartments, Lake Forest has developed a reputation as one of the Chicagoland area’s most exclusive communities. Boasting an extremely low crime rate and superb public schools, it’s a particularly desirable option for folks raising families.
The lakefront offers terrific scenic views as well as opportunities for swimming, boating, and fishing; further inland, a network of large parks and golf courses provides residents with endless opportunities to spend quality time outdoors. Two separate Metra stations make it easy to get around the region by rail, with Chicago less than an hour’s ride away.
