Orland Park, Illinois

 

Orland Park is a village located in northeastern Illinois, 25 miles (40 kilometers) southwest of Chicago. It is part of Cook County, and is home to 51,077 people.

Looking for a crash course in local history? The Orland Historical Society maintains two attractions that are open to the public. The first is John Humphrey House, once the home of Orland Park's first village president. The second attraction consists of two log cabins, built by the brothers Jacob and Bernard Hostert in the 1850s. Jacob's cabin is furnished with authentic period furnishings, while Bernard's cabin houses a collection of hand irons, farm implements, and tools.

Orland Park offers many facilities for sports and recreation, and has a park system that covers more than 500 acres (202 hectares). Centennial Park is the largest outdoor venue, and offers a marina, ice rink, sled hill, trail system, and baseball and soccer fields. You can also tee off at the 45-hole Silver Lake Country Club, swim a few laps at the Centennial Pool, or work out at the Sportsplex. The village's Recreation and Parks Department offers numerous programs for all ages, and teens have access to the Grinding Edge Skate Park and a number of special events and activities.
