Long Grove

Mount Prospect >

Relaxed small town vibes.

From the storied covered bridge to historic buildings, cobblestone walks, and ample green spaces, Long Grove is a charming community northwest of Chicago.

The downtown, Illinois' first historic district, brings modern living to the quaint feel with local upscale shops, restaurants, and arts and culture. Festivals, like ones dedicated to strawberries and apples, and many outdoor concerts and winter activities bring vibrancy to this gem of the northern suburbs.

Ample green spaces, forests, conservation areas, and large lots give Long Grove a pastoral feel, with all the convenience of Chicago an easy train ride away.
