Fairhaven Park, Mundelein, IL

Fairhaven Park covers 38 acres of open space in central Mundelein, anchored by a 10-acre lake that supports seasonal fishing and non-motorized boating. Two lighted tennis courts, a sand volleyball court, and four ball fields draw residents for organized leagues and informal play. A 1.8-mile paved loop circles the park, connecting to the regional Des Plaines River Trail for longer bicycle or running routes. Picnic shelters with electric service, restrooms, and a playground with modern safety surfacing accommodate family gatherings year-round. Mature oak and maple groves provide shade along the water’s edge, while open meadows offer clear views of the surrounding residential neighborhoods. The park sits within a five-minute drive of IL Route 60 and IL Route 83, giving residents quick access to grocery stores, restaurants, and Metra’s North Central Service line at the Mundelein station.
