Quiet place off a small pond, fishing can be done there. Some light flat trails. Not a lot of bells and whistles but a great place to catch a a little outside action and not a bad place a smoke a cigar!!
This is a great place to meditate in tbe afternoons.bring your music blanket or chair. ENJOY NATURE
Clean, maintained. Never have a problem. Theres no bathrooms though.
Serene views of fishing lake, event pavilion accessible and beautiful forest to enjoy.Mobile toilet on site.
Good spot to get a quick dose of nature. Not too crowded. Good fishing on the river.
Its a perfect place to take a short break and react on the day.Everytime I drive thru the area. Maybe 5-6 a year? Just lets me reflect and observe the seasone.Kind of loud from the 294 but ehhhh still glad to have a spot like that to stop by.There is always someone fishing which is nice to see.
Pretty clean. Like to walk the dog around the lake
Cook county forest preserves are an escape from the big city. Great biking and hiking trails. Read about the history of these areas and how they came to be. We are fortunate to have these preserves.
Very nice
The scenery is beautiful, especially sitting next to the pond. Makes you feel like youre outside Chicagoland. Lots of trees to sit under to grab some shade of desired.
Beautiful place to relax

Oh yea the chippewa woods, and, and baby, an old Indian legend said if you kiss under the chippewa waterfall youre gonna stay in love foreverHeard about it on: Episode:2/29/96
A good spot for family and kids okay
A.little confusing as I believe it has different names depending on where you park. Same as Axehead Lake? Decent for dog walking on leash. Near Des Plaines river trail but area has yet another name on the east side. Dont know if fishing is any good - not of interest. I do like when there are miniature sailboats sometimes in the summer.
We had a great time theres a great place to go
Very nice to see
Relaxed
Lovely small park
This is a lovely lake in a very serene spot. Very quiet and beautiful. I only wish there was a path all the way around to walk/run and a bench or two.
Nice place to walk to Axhead Lake is the lake has toilet and picnic facilities and also the Des Plaines River Trail is close by.
Very Peaceful and Clean.
Nice place for picnic and relaxing. Enjoy.

Use this location for our family reunion. Love the area and it was a great experience.
I purchased a Permit online for Chippewa Woods but i am confused as to which grove i can set up at.
Good job on clearing the parking lot and a good amount of wildlife for the location.
Nice place for a picnic and spend time with the family and friends.
Beautiful as chill
Nice hiking & horse paths near & on the Des Plaines River. Downside is its the muddiest extension of the Des Plaines River Trail.
One of the nicer parks
Nice open fields with plenty of places for a picnic.
