Skokie Lagoons are a series of lagoons in this nature preserve managed by the Forest Preserve District of Cook County. Though bordered by roads, it's a nice little nature escape with kayaking, boating, fishing, bird watching, and paddling options. The lagoons are all connected and together measure about 190 acres. The water enters from Chicago Botanic Garden through the lagoons to the Skokie River, and the low dams keep the water levels below the inner islands.

From this grassy spot you get a lovely view of Skokie Lagoon No. 3. This lagoon is part of the Skokie Lagoons nature preserve, located in Glencoe and Winnetka, Illinois. This lagoon is one of seven interconnected lagoons spanning 190 acres, managed by the Forest Preserve District of Cook County. The lagoons were created by the Civilian Conservation Corps between 1933 and 1940, transforming a marshy area into the artificial lagoons seen today. On hot days you might see folks fishing, and kayaking. This is a great spot to rest and relax before continuing on your ride.
