Gurnee Park District Viking Park

been here a dozen of times… a hidden gem that is not easily visible and accessible from the main roads… located off the historical «old grand ave»…very well maintained recreational area… great for hosting different indoor and outdoor events (i.e. bday parties, weddings, craft shows, private gatherings)…several indoor centers with that old country settings… the rental rates are cheap maybe because it’s a gurnee park district and not privately owned… clean indoor bathrooms complete with plumbing… different outdoor courts (basketball, tennis, volleyball, badminton, etc.)…plenty of parking scattered around… beautiful large old trees (especially the acorn) compliments the setting that mimics a bob ross landscape painting… the only negative comment i can say — metra line is next door so expect some train noise when outdoor… or wear ear muffs!

Nice clean recreational area for a family reunion picnic. Lot of areas for group play, privacy and clean restrooms.
