Lake Forest is about 45 minutes from Chicago. If you choose to extend your trip and spend some time in the city we call home, there are plenty of options for things to do. Here are a few of our top recommendations: see a Cubs game and eat a Chicago-style hot dog (they'll be playing the Rays or the Pirates), enjoy one of Chicago's fantastic museums (we love the art institute and the museum of science and industry), see the city from a different perspective and learn a bit about its history on the Chicago architecture boat tour, or any of the other amazing activities Chicago has to offer.
