My family and I love staying here when we visit Chicago each summer. The resort is always so clean and never crowded. On-site parking is free which is so convenient. It's very easy to catch the METRA into Chicago from beautiful downtown Itasca. Nearby Schaumburg offers great shopping and dining. The resort rooms are clean and beautifully decorated. The beds are so comfortable. The spa has a huge pool that has always been clean and the water is never too cold. The spa also houses a neon bowling alley which is great for some family fun. We love sitting around the large fire pit the resort has burning each evening. We usually don't dine at the resort as the restaurants there are a little pricey. Staying here is always a relaxing experience.
