Illinois
The Sand Lake real estate market is a beautiful, but less active, marketplace for lake property in Illinois.
Normally there are very few lake homes for sale at Sand Lake, and very few listings for lots and land.
Sand Lake is a mid-sized Illinois lake and has 2 miles of shoreline. The closest major airport is Chicago O'Hare International Airport.
Sand Lake is a stunning body of water in Venetian Village, next to the villages of Lindenhurst, Lake Villa, and Round Beach. With these nearby, restaurants, stores, and other general establishments are just minutes away.
The great city of Chicago sits just 50 miles south, providing a list of hospitals, O'Hare International Airport, hotels, restaurants, stores, and more.
Glaciers created sand Lake over 10,000 years ago, and it now encompasses around 100 acres. Its clear waters reach depths of 31 feet and are eight feet deep on average.
Boating, fishing, and swimming are popular activities on Sand Lake. Members of the Lake Villa Township have access to the lake's beach, park, and boat launch.
The healthy population of fish in Sand Lake makes it a fantastic fishing location. It is a year-round fishery, offering ice fishing in the winter.
Duck Farm Dog Park, just west of the lake, is a lovely place to take your dog on an adventure. It has open fields, well-cut trails, small creeks, and bridges to make your walk exciting.
Just 15 miles east of Sand Lake, Illinois Beach State Park provides access to Lake Michigan's beautiful waters. You will find beaches like Oak Street Beach, Foster Beach, or North Avenue Beach for even more fun down the coast.
On the Chicago lake coast, you can attend events like Chicago Air and Water, The Mac Regatta, or the Chicago Scene Boat Party.
Attractions like Millennium Park, Willis Tower, Navy Pier, The Art Institute of Chicago, Shedd Aquarium, Lincoln Park Zoo, or Skydeck Chicago await in the city.
Sand Lake is a peaceful area offering lake recreation and city access, making it an ideal location for a lake property.
