Hawthorn Woods, IL

Hawthorn Woods, Illinois, a tranquil village in Lake County, is located 7 miles north of Palatine and 32 miles northwest of Chicago. The area was originally inhabited by the Potawatomi Native Americans who vacated the land in 1829 following a treaty with the United States. The subsequent years saw German immigrants settling here in the 1850s, followed by Dutch farmers. A significant milestone was reached in 1945 when Matt and Germaine Larson bought a forest farm that eventually became the village hall in 1967, the same year Hawthorn Woods was incorporated.

The village is surrounded by historical and natural attractions. The Cuneo Museum & Gardens, Fort Hill Heritage Museum, and Lake County Discovery Museum provide cultural enrichment. Historical sites like the Charles Gates Dawes House and Deerfield Historic Village offer insights into the past. Nature lovers can enjoy the Chain O'Lakes State Park, Ferson Creek Fen Nature Preserve, and Moraine Hills State Park. Other must-visit spots include the Chicago Botanic Garden, the Leaning Tower of Niles, and the Friendship Park Conservatory. As of the latest data, the village has a population of 8,959.
