Whipple O. Parrott Park, Round Lake Park, IL

Whipple O. Parrott Park occupies 47 acres along Round Lake Park’s eastern edge, providing residents direct access to two miles of paved multi-use trails that link to the larger Des Plaines River Trail system. The park includes four lighted tennis courts, two baseball diamonds with bleachers, a playground with poured-in-place surfacing, and a fishing pier on the park’s central pond stocked annually by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. A 2,400-square-foot picnic shelter with electrical service and adjacent restrooms supports group events, while the remaining open lawns are mowed regularly for informal sports. Mature oak and hickory stands border the south perimeter, offering shade and seasonal color. The park sits within a half-mile of the Route 120 commercial corridor, allowing residents to reach grocery stores, pharmacies, and restaurants by foot or short drive. Daily maintenance is handled by Round Lake Park’s public works department, and security patrols operate from dusk until 10 p.m.
