Learn more about Crystal Lake

Beneath the surface of this lakeside retreat lies a Midwestern town with surprising depth. Main Beach invites summer splashing, while Three Oaks Recreation Area offers more secluded swimming spots. The revitalized downtown district hums with specialty shops and local eateries where families linger over ice cream before evening concerts in the park. Veterans Acres Park provides hiking trails through prairie and woodland, perfect for spotting deer at dusk. North Wall Rock Climbing challenges adventure-seekers with indoor routes when lake activities aren't enough. Come winter, the lake transforms into an impromptu neighborhood ice rink, complete with pickup hockey games and hot chocolate-clutching spectators.

Getting ready for Spring.   Ice is melting and boats are ready to go.  Crystal Lake, IL. #BvSSpring
