Paradise Quarry

Welcome to our beautiful property!  This is a very special place, located an hour from Chicago and only minutes from the west suburbs, you will be transported to another time!   This has to be the best “swimming/ fishing hole” in Chicagoland and you can have it all to yourself.  

The property features 20 acres of woods, prairie and an 8 acre lake!!!    The lake is crystal clear because it’s so deep (reportedly 125 ft) and is sandy on the bottom.   We created a massive beach area with many camping spots to choose from.   The kids will love exploring the trails on foot and on bike.  Everyone will love lounging under the umbrellas on the comfy chaise lounges and enjoying the views.   

You won’t want to leave, but if you need to restock, there a gas station 1/4 mile away and full service grocery store and restaurant under a mile away.  We even get pizza delivered!   There’s a nice driveway of gravel that leads to a nice open field for RV campers.  Tent campers can continue to the beach and set up in style.  

The property was once an active quarry and was then basically abandoned for 40-50 years.  Nature took over over, Trees matured, the stocked lake grew some massive fish.  A few years ago we started camping out there and just loved it.  We’ve worked hard to make it amazing and we want to share it with you.

The Vaudeville Urban Farm Fun!

Twenty years of growing this farm... Not what grows here but the farm itself!  Stone and brick pulled from the ground till we found the beautiful earth beneath and built an incredible community around it.  Or rather, it grew itself from the energy that surrounds it.  It's a special spot where you may happen upon a fire in the sugar shack while we boil city collected sap into maple syrup or have an open jam night with world class jazz musicians.  Enjoy the morning serenade of our rooster! Really, just come and be here.  Though we think we're pretty cool, a few things to note that you may not think are so cool: There is a train that runs directly behind the farm.  Light sleepers, may want to bring ear plugs.  We try to accommodate parking your car on site but it's weather and situation conditional. Assume the possibility that you may need to park on the street.

Bring your tent to The Vaudeville! (RVs, campers, trailers, vans please see the ** at the bottom). Our urban farm is smack in the middle of Chicago only a 10 minute bike or train ride from Downtown, Lake Michigan, The Mag Mile and all Chicago has to offer! Bike the Lake Shore Trail, walk the 606, kayak the Chicago River, catch a blues show or Hawks game or just relax with the goats and chickens in the 9,000 square foot farm that we absolutely love to share with fellow campers!

** We have stopped hosting RVs, campers/vans, pull behinds and larger vehicles because we are finding it difficult to get them in the entrance gate but if you feel amazingly capable with your backing in skills in your rig and you're super patient, laid back and extra cool, let us know and we may be able to make it work!! :)
