Nantucket Park, Darien, IL

Nantucket Park in Darien occupies 13 acres along 75th Street and provides residents with two lighted tennis courts, a basketball court, and a playground with climbing structures and swings. The park’s 0.6-mile asphalt loop trail circles a central open field used for informal sports and picnics. A shelter with picnic tables and grills sits near the parking lot, and restrooms are open from April through October. Mature oak and maple trees shade the perimeter, while the flat terrain makes the loop accessible for strollers and mobility devices. The park connects directly to the 6-mile Cass Avenue Bikeway, allowing cyclists and runners to continue south toward Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve or north toward the I-55 corridor. Darien’s municipal complex, library branch, and several grocery stores lie within a five-minute drive, and the park’s location one mile east of I-55 shortens commute times to downtown Chicago.
