Scenic Park Forest, ILSince 1949 when Park Forest was hailed as one of the nation's first totally planned model
communities, the village has demonstrated remarkable vision in planning for growth
From the world-famous "Park Forest Scenic Ten Mile" road race to nationally renowned
performances in music, dance, and theater, the village is unrivaled for the quality and
quantity of its cultural and recreational amenities. Highlights include an aquatics
complex, playgrounds, a skateboard park, an 18-hole golf course, an indoor tennis
and health center, lush parks, and miles of hiking trails in the Thorn Creek Nature
Preserve & Nature Center. The village boasts an additional 45-acre wetland restoration
project and the preservation of nearly 12,000 trees. Queen Annes, ranches, Cape Cods,
and converted split-levels dominate the attractive and diverse housing selection. The
