New Haven Park, Cary, IL

New Haven Park spans 26 acres in Cary and includes a 1.8-mile paved trail system that connects directly to the Prairie Trail. The park contains two lighted baseball diamonds, a soccer field, a playground with safety surfacing, and two picnic shelters with grills. A fishing pond stocked with bluegill and largemouth bass sits near the main parking area. Open turf areas accommodate kite flying and informal sports, while mature oak and hickory trees provide shade along the trail edges. The park borders the Fox River, offering residents access to the river’s canoe launch at Lions Park, one mile south. Cary-Grove High School and Cary Junior High lie within a half-mile, and the Metra Union Pacific Northwest Line station is a three-minute drive. Daily errands are supported by the Jewel-Osco and Walgreens at Three Oaks Road and Route 14, both less than two miles away.
