Little Cubs Field

Why on earth doesn’t this get better reviews.
It is the cutest spot ever! A small Wrigley field that even has the right street signs, across the street ‘rooftops’, and even bleachers and bricks from the real Wrigley Field?! How much better can you get.
We visited on a whim when we saw the sign. It was a cold day and we weren’t out of the car for long, but long enough to appreciate the hard work that went into building this. I think it’s adorable that kids can play here and you can even host really reasonably priced parties!
Not necessarily a destination if you’re not in the area, but definitely a worthwhile stop off. Also, I saw the signs directing us there — not sure why others thought it was unclear… though you go for a while on residential streets which may seem like you’re headed in the wrong direction… so I can see some confusion.
So, go visit and be a kid for a few min while checking it out, taking a photo on the pitchers mound, etc.
Also — it’s free! fun!

Little Cubs Field looks really cool, it is really great to watch kids playing on the field (t-​ball only) and it is a cool place to have parties or other events.
My husband and I actually got married there. It was a blast, it created an awesome back drop for our outdoor wedding, there is plenty of seating for guests with the bleachers and then after the ceremony we had a home-​run-​derby which everyone loved!
As far as a touristy spot it’s pretty average, like the world’s largest ball of string or something. The gift shop is only open on weekends and only in the warmer months.
So the best thing about Little Cubs Field? Using it for a party or event, it’s a unique choice and pricing is reasonable for renting it.

The name says it all.
I read it on a sign while cruising the expressway back to Chicago. Since I like to explore, we went looking around for it. The directions off the signs aren’t clear. Got there and that was that. Shot some photos, pitched a few balls from the pitcher’s mound, took the bases and we were done in about ten minutes or less. The site has a convenience store which might be open during games?
Why was it erected? For the love of baseball. If you are a baseball fan fanatic, it might be something to see. For everyone else, there isn’t anything touristy around the area, its smack dab in the middle of a neighborhood.
