Pinehurst Park, Flossmoor, IL

Pinehurst Park spans 30 acres in central Flossmoor and serves residents with a mix of active and passive recreation. The park features lighted tennis courts, a playground with modern equipment, and a basketball court used year-round by local youth programs. A 0.8-mile paved loop trail circles the grounds, connecting to the Old Plank Road Trail and providing a direct route for cyclists and runners heading east toward Homewood or west toward Olympia Fields. Two small ponds stocked with bluegill attract anglers, while adjacent open lawns accommodate organized soccer practices on weekends. Mature oak and maple trees provide shade along the walking paths, and a small picnic shelter with restrooms sits near the main parking lot. The park lies three blocks from the Flossmoor Metra station and one mile from the Interstate 57 interchange, giving commuters quick access to downtown Chicago or the south suburbs. Regular police patrols and strong neighborhood watch programs contribute to the park’s reputation for safety after dusk.
