MaryB,Thank you for your kind words, we sincerely enjoyed being a part of such a special event. Please continue to spread the word about your experience so we can help others discover this wonderful space. Thank you again for choosing Allerton and your continued support all these years. We look forward to see you again soon.
beachqueenChicago,I am happy to hear you and your four-legged friend were able to enjoy Allerton this past fall. You are correct, in the warmer months there is nothing better than a picnic in your special place within Allerton Park. If you are ever back in the area come down for one of our many concerts in the park and even think about staying the night!
Saboin V,Thank you for your recent review of Allerton and thank you for your continued support of the Park. Your oldest son is correct, Allerton is certainly a park with plenty of history to tell. We look forward to your next visit and thank you again for your support of Allerton.
Catherine C, First off congratulations to your cousin, and thank you for making the trip to Allerton and staying with us during your stay. Your review touched on a great tip, we do not have a restaurant here on site, so if you are staying a while and don't or cant make the trip into town bring a few snacks and drinks. Thank you again for your review and we hope to have you here at Allerton again if you are in the area.
Kona J,Thank you for your recent review of Allerton Park, we sincerely hope you enjoyed your time here. You came at a wonderful time to enjoy the beginning of the autumn season and the fall foliage. Please keep us in mind if you are ever in the area again and please let more people know about your experience here at Allerton.
fancypants2014,Thank you for your recent review of Allerton Park, during the fall the trails are outstanding with wildlife and fall colors. The advice you gave about guests checking in at the visitors center is great. Because we are so close to the Sangamon River even the smallest amount of rain can servery impact the lower trails. We hope to see you soon again at Allerton Park.
dirk1957Thank you for coming back to Allerton Park this past summer, we are humbled that you would bring your family with you as well helping to make sure future generations enjoy this wonderful place. This past summer was truly a great one, we had the perfect amount of rain to ensure the park was in full bloom for most of the summer. Please visit us again in the future and maybe make it an overnight!
I grew up going here, so I may be a bit partial, but Allerton Park is simply the most beautiful park in Illinois. With enough acreage to supply a whole day's worth (and then some) of exploring, picnics, and hiking, it's hard not to fall in love. Spring and summer are my favorite seasons, as the gardens are in full bloom and manicured extremely well. With so many different gardens, it never seems crowded - even with a full parking lot.The staff is fantastic, and unless there is an event, welcomes people inside the mansion to look around. The only time not to go would be after a rain in the dead of summer ... The Mosquitos seem to get a bit wicked. Do yourself and you're family the favor of taking a daytrip. Make sure you get a map, because there is so much more than meets the eye. Enjoy!
James A,Thank you supporting Allerton in so many ways, we sincerely appreciate all you do. As you mentioned we are thrilled so many people are enjoying the concerts this year and we look forward to having more first time and returning guests out to Allerton to enjoy this wonderful gift. We look forward to see you again on the 30th of May for the Garden Party.
