We had our wedding ceremony here this May and it was just gorgeous. The Park District was a bit of a pain to work with (we had a very flighty coordinator), but my advice is to just keep on them and…

If you're a Northsider like me, the only thing wrong with Promontory Point is it's a bit far. But I had a two hour break today, so I ventured down the lakefront from my place, there and back; well…

The Point makes its mark on my Top Five Most Beautiful Places in Chicago. Day or night, this place offers an amazing view of the skyline on one side, and the Museum of Science and Industry on the…

My personal favorite Chicago view is from the far reaches of Museum Campus, but Promontory Point is a close second, and it actually has outdoor event space. It is indeed the ideal spot for a small…

A great place to hang out, have a wedding or walk the dogs. Just one of the many beautiful spots Chicago has to offer.

A beautiful park whose original design should never be interfered with. The only drawback is the sometimes intrusive police presence in the summer.

Just one of the most beautiful, tranquil lakefront spots. A visit to the point can liven up any day - the sight of the waves lashing up against the rocks, and the lovely park area. There's no better…

This place is awesome. I lived right next door so spent many an afternoon walking around the park. My dog loved jumping on the rocks with me. Cons: Just that, cons, as in ex-cons or future-cons. When…

The best swimming experience for me in Chicago at Lake Mich was here. It is basically a bunch of rocks right against the lake and you jump in from there. It wasn't packed, it was perfect. And the…

I agree 100% with all the previous reviews. I really want to try swimming here. On the north side of the point there are rocks you can use to climb into the water. They are even labeled: "People Here"…

This is where Lula learned to swim. A lovely, serene beach where both doggies and people frolick. With lots of climbing fun for doggies. I hope it never changes!
