The name Wood Dale is completely appropriate for this community. Immersed in lush natural areas and filled with relaxing golf courses, Wood Dale is a beautiful small city adjacent to the O’Hare International Airport. Residents take advantage of Wood Dale’s natural beauty by spending leisure time at the Salt Creek Park Forest Preserve, Songbird Slough, and Salt Creek Golf Club. You can also cool off during the summer at one of the waterparks or splash pads nearby. Rainbow Falls Waterpark is a local family favorite featuring a gigantic four-way waterslide.
Entertainment doesn’t stop at the parks or amusement parks either. Wood Dale is a close-knit town that values getting to know neighbors so there are community events almost every month of the year, such as outdoor movie screenings. After a long day of fun, locals can grab a bit to eat at the restaurants along Irving Park Road.
