Unplug. Explore. Reconnect.

As Willow Hill Lodge grows in popularity, many seek to experience its beauty without an overnight stay. Our Nature Pass offers a rare opportunity to wander through 67 acres of pristine wilderness, soak in the history of our Wild West boardwalk, and lose yourself in the magic of the Enchanted Forest—all in a single serene afternoon.

​

Available Sundays | 11 AM – 3 PM

With limited spots each week, you’ll have the space to explore at your own pace, uninterrupted by crowds.

Enjoy exclusive access to:

• Scenic Hiking Trails – Meander through rolling landscapes and untouched woodlands.

• The Enchanted Forest – A hidden sanctuary of mystery and wonder.

• Wild West Boardwalk – Step into history with our carefully preserved Western setting. Learn about our local ghost town that was once a bustling area.

 

Optional:

Why not make it a whole adventure? You can opt instead for our new Little Chicago Adventure Mystery to spend the afternoon on the property AND get to solve a mystery!. Step into the shoes of a detective in this thrilling geocache mystery! Big John’s secret ledger—filled with hidden debts and treasure locations—has vanished, and it’s up to you to find it. Explore Willow Hill Lodge, solve puzzles, crack ciphers, and uncover hidden caches as you piece together clues to unlock the final treasure. With a detective’s case file in hand, can you track down the missing ledger before it’s lost forever?
