Willis Park spans 22 acres in northwest Champaign and includes three baseball diamonds, a playground with rubberized surfacing, and a lighted basketball court. A paved loop trail circles the park’s perimeter, connecting to the larger Champaign Park District trail network that extends to the nearby Meadowbrook Park. Two picnic shelters with grills sit near open turf fields used for soccer practice. The park is located within a half-mile of Interstate 57 and within walking distance of several grocery stores and restaurants along North Prospect Avenue. Mature trees line the north and west edges, providing shade for the playground and shelters during summer months. The combination of active recreation facilities, connected trails, and nearby commercial services makes the park a practical amenity for residents seeking outdoor space without leaving the city.
Willis Park currently has 8 single family homes for sale.
