Charger Court Park, Carol Stream, IL

Charger Court Park occupies roughly 14 acres along the south side of Carol Stream, adjacent to the DuPage County Forest Preserve’s extensive trail network. Two lighted ball diamonds serve the Carol Stream Youth Baseball program, and an adjacent lighted soccer field hosts travel-team matches on artificial turf. A 0.7-mile paved loop circles the park, connecting directly to the regional Prairie Path and the 40-mile Salt Creek Greenway, giving residents off-street access to both walking and cycling routes. A central playground with composite structures and a separate tot lot sits beside two picnic shelters that can be reserved through the Park District. Two lighted tennis courts and a basketball court complete the active-recreation offerings. Mature oak and hickory trees line the perimeter, providing shade for spectators and a visual buffer from adjacent roadways. The park is a five-minute drive from downtown Carol Stream’s grocery stores and restaurants, and the Metra Union Pacific West line station is less than four miles away.
