We sorta booked our family get together just a few weeks before our trip to Chicago. We had two toddlers and two teens along with my parents who are in their 70’s... there were a total of ten of us.
We all loved the Wicker park location. It was a couple blocks away from the blue line and also buses. An excellent park was just a short couple blocks away and visible from the back door. We spent time there every day! We loved the accessibility to restaurants, shops, bookstores, coffeehouses, etc.
There was always something going on. We loved to watch people go by and saw the long long lines each night at Jenny’s ice cream shop. I personally loved the trains go by... my kids and I would spend some time everyday just looking at the trains go by from the back porch.
Excellent option for family’s in our opinion!
