Elgin is a radiant city in Illinois with a strong pedigree of education and research. The city has produced one Nobel laureate, Pulitzer Prize winner, Olympic athletes and five Navy Admirals. Established in the wake of the Indian Removal Act of 1830, the city gets its name from the Scottish tune known as “Elgin.” This highly educated city with an educated citizenry is now playing host to numerous pool communities that are a magnet for pool-lovers such as you. A quality life experience and a great investment are waiting for you and your family to enjoy.
Start with Elgin’s vast and enchanting nature spaces if you want to know the soul of this city. The Lord’s Park is 108 acres of beautiful landscapes with a historic pavilion, museum, picnic-king spots and a water park. There is a lovely petting zoo in the middle of the Park where your kids can see bison and moose.
Another magnificent green escape is the Arthur L. Janura Forest Preserve. It has both paved and unpaved trails including a nine-mile asphalt trail in a continuous loop. Deer occasionally come your way so if you’re a jogger, be prepared for some thrilling close quarters encounters.
Your hunger pangs after all that nature loving will be set to rest by the Burnt Toast Restaurant’s glorious menu. Patrons love its omelets, grits and Country Fried Steak and Eggs. The nearby Ray’s Family Restaurant can also hold its own in a culinary contest with its splendid gyro omelet with mushroom and feta cheese toppings.
