Patch Picks: Elmhurst Staycation

Have fun without leaving your hometown.

 

Is your private jet in the shop? Have no fear, Patch is here with some leisure options right here in Elmhurst.

Mayan Adventure Indoor Waterpark, 624 N. York St., Elmhurst, 630-279-1100. How many towns in the Chicago area can boast of an indoor waterpark? Count yourself lucky that we're one, and take the kids, a swimsuit and a sunny outlook.

Lizzadro Museum of Lapidary Art, 220 S. Cottage Hill Ave., Elmhurst, 630-833-1616 or Elmhurst Art Museum, 150 S. Cottage Hill Ave., Elmhurst, 630-834-0202 or Elmhurst Historical Museum, 120 E. Park Ave., Elmhurst, 630-833-1457. If cultural attractions are more your thing, Elmhurst offers not one, but three great museums to check out.

River Forest Country Club, 15w468 Grand Ave., Elmhurst, 630-279-5444. For some people, a vacation just isn't a vacation without golf. (Mini golf at Berens Park doesn't open until Spring Break is over; but you can take another staycation or two in the summer, right?)

Fitz's Spare Keys, 119 N. York St., Elmhurst, 630-379-5007. What happens if it rains during a vacation? You go bowling, of course!

York Theatre, 150 N. York St., Elmhurst, 630-834-0675, Enjoy a movie in this historic theater, then stroll the beautiful downtown Elmhurst City Centre.

Did you stay home for spring break this year? What did you do? Tell us in the comments.
