“Took my husband here for his birthday and we enjoyed it! Only thing we didn’t like was that you only get two minutes of fly time per round. It seems to go by very quickly and seems not worth the price! Other than that he had lots of fun!”

“Been here a few times over the last month. EVERY time I’ve went the customer service has been TERRIBLE. First time I sat there for over 20 min JUST to purchase ammo while the staff was joking around amongst each other. The second time I was coming in to fill out paperwork for an online order. Once again I sat around patiently because staff was assisting other customers. Meanwhile I saw a guy sitting on the computer look up at me twice but never got up to help. After 30 minutes one of the employees asked if I needed help while still assisting another customer. When I told her yes, she said apologized and said that she would get someone. Lo and behold she told the SAME guy that made eye contact with me TWICE that I needed assistance and he got up and came right over. The LAST time I went up there, it was to pickup my online purchase after my background check which NO ONE called to notify me of. When I got there 2 customers were in the store with 4 employees helping them. Or at least I thought. Come to find out only one guy was making a purchase while the other one, along with the three other employees were chatting it up about past experiences. I get it…. Store’s empty so there’s time to sit around and chat. No way on EARTH Should that be happening while myself as well as another waiting customer are waiting (that magic number again) 20 minutes for assistance. The guy waiting with me had enough and said he’d just go somewhere else and I wished I COULD have. It took the same lady that got me help a couple days earlier, to come from the back and FINALLY get the ball rolling on getting me outta there. Will NEVER visit this location again.”

“I've spent a lot of time here through out the years. It's clean and the walkable pavement is very smooth. This park has very easy beginners hiking trails and it's a great place to take my dog here with me. Like every forest preserve, there are weirdos there but I've had minimal interactions.”

3516 N Spaulding Ave, Chicago, IL 60618, United States

“This place is so much fun!! I climbed for about a year at Ohio States climbing gym and it was so much fun I wanted to keep climbing over the summer. This gym was super convenient and has so many different routes!! They also offer some clinics like less climbing or belaying, and have fun events almost every week. It’s a little pricey but worth it in my opinion especially with a small student discount. I cant wait to return next summer for all of the new routes. The staff are also always super friendly!”

2050 Tower Dr, Glenview, IL 60026, United States

“So many fun climbing walls and obstacles. Great for older kids and parents too! Elementary school and middle school age kids will love this. There is an auto belay system attached to each climbing station. You are on your own to clip in and out. Some of the clips are a little tricky. It's best to stay with your kids to help with the clips. Kids climb for $20 for 1 hour and parents that want to climb pay $10. The staff fits you into a harness that you wear for the duration of your climb. It's an extra $3 per person if you want to do the slide. Included: about 30 climbing stations, an overhead obstacle course, a tunnel cave and a soft climbing play area. Wear gym shoes and athletic clothes. No jewelry, Make a reservation in advance!”

“Julian helped me find new shoes because my feet were very achy. He dedicated a full hour and helped me try on Atleast 10 pairs of shoes/sizes. He truly is a blessing because of his patience and dedication to the customer. Thank you! Pros: Julian A+ employee, music in the store, atmosphere is nice and non judgmental. Cons: pricey but I got what I paid for and am happy”

8030 Chicago Ave, Maywood, IL 60153, United States

“A great place for a walk,/og. This place is beautiful especially in the fall when the leaves change Colors. Plenty of Parking unless they have soccer practice but it doesn't get too crowded. Finally, I feel safe coming to this place.”

“I’ve skated in a lot of ice skating rinks, and this is the best one to skate on for the public in Chicago. Front desk staff and even security are so kind and helpful. I’ll be visiting more often! :)”

“Our instructor Anthony M. Was very knowledgeable and a great help. He answered all our questions and was very patient with everyone in class. He was even able to recommend a gun to me which I am in love with. I was struggling finding one that was perfect for me. Definitely gonna buy it soon and get my CCL.”

South La Grange Road, Palos Park, IL 60464, United States

“10/10 recommend these trails and the stairs! Beautiful any time of year and so many options for short and long walks/runs/bike rides. Depending on your child(ren) and stroller, it's definitely an option to use it though the ride is bumpy and sometimes muddy. Also very hilly, so be sure to bring a stroller strap for safety. I've been here for personal fitness, too. The stairs are a good strength and cardio option for someone who likes being active outdoors. They are partially shaded, depending on the time of year and day, but be sure to bring plenty of water! If you're looking for an option for your baby, I've brought mine here in a carrier and backpack and we've wandered the trails for hours (and took a turn or two on the stairs). It takes some planning, but again, be sure to bring plenty of water as the hills can bring on a good sweat. Many trails also allow leashed dogs, too!”

3600 Thayer Ct #500, Aurora, IL 60504, United States

“Awesome facility. 24 hour access is great, has the best equipment and they’re always getting something new. You can tell the owner and staff really care about holding the gym to a high standard. The community and staff are very friendly and supportive. Great gym for powerlifting, weightlifting, strongman, or just any type of fitness.”

2121 W Indian Trail, Aurora, IL 60506, United States

“We had a birthday party there for a 10 year old. The staff was SUPER friendly, the price was reasonable, and the pool patio was a useful area for a larger party. The kids area is probably a bit too small for anyone over 10. The boys ended up at the lilly pad/rope climb area, as well as the two water slides they had to offer. The rest of the area was for little kids, so keep that in mind during your planning. This is good from about 5yrs-10yrs. The facility provided water & juice, we also brought juice and cups just in case. They also provided plates and napkins. We brought in pizza from nearby. We would.do it again, but with the kids getting older, it just won't hold their interest like it used to. Nonetheless, it's a great spot to get some swimming in during those winter months and bdays!”

“Staff were super friendly and helpful for my first-ever indoor climbing experience. They explained terms, gave a great tour, and a great safety introduction so I could climb with confidence. They made a day that was honestly pretty intimidating when I walked in, in to an enjoyable, fun time. Highly recommend for brand new first time climbers.”

“I was there for the 2023 Chicago Craft Beer Festival. It was a fun event and would definitely go to again.”

780 S McLean Blvd, Elgin, IL 60123, United States

“Top notch. Most of the guys here are really cool. Joe, one of the salesmen was very knowledgeable and took his time to show us a variety of handguns. They pretty much have everything you need. The gun range is really nice and reasonably priced. Definitely worth a visit. 👍🏻 …”

14510 IL-176, Woodstock, IL 60098, United States

“It was my first experience picking apples 🍎 and I wasn’t expecting to get yelled at. This place is HUGE and apparently we were walking the wrong way after we purchased our pricey bags to pick some apples. The lady was screaming at us which we immediately turned around. It wasn’t like we were ignoring her, we were having trouble finding the rest of our group as soon as we arrived at this establishment. The maze was fun and free where you can cross a bridge and see the whole corn field. There are other events that you can participate with the kids that you need to pay extra. The gift shop was cool and it was nice to see how they make their donuts behind the window. They served warm apple cider and hot food…long lines super busy but food was served fairly quickly. Over the experience was okay minus getting yelled at. 🫤”

“Urban is a fun place to take the kids for a few hours to burn their energy lol. My daughters, age 7 and 3, had an absolute blast! We first went here for a birthday party. It's a great place to holds kid party, they have party room available for rental and will save you time to clean o after lol They have so much different activity to do! I wonder how much a yearly membership lol The only complaint, the bathroom probably needs an update lol”

“Me and my wife took the gun couples class, and loved it. The instructor, I think his name was Tony? Was very good, clearly passionate about teaching proper gun safety and use. It made for a great date night, and we can't wait to go back and practice what we learned.”
