Quiet, neighborhood park. Safe. Despite some high end homes around the park, there are lots of vans (sprinter style) parked here overnight, both on weekends and weekdays, so you won't look out of place. Free, non-permitted parking along Huron and Rockwell (unusual in Chicago!). Smaller RVs can park on W Grand Ave. The park field house is open from 9 am-8 pm. Bathrooms are free and accessible. In the summer, the pool is free and open to the public--showers are only found in the pool area, so no showers except in summer. Lots of dog walkers in/around this park, but people and pets are well behaved.
Lots of restaurants and coffee shops nearby; easy biking into downtown Chicago for exploring, museums, etc. The neighborhood is known as Ukrainian Village... Interesting history if you look it up.

We spent a few nights here while visiting Chicago and we’re glad we did. The bathrooms weren’t open when we were there, but it was pretty peaceful. A short walk to lots of shops and bars. Some teenagers were partying in the parking lot while we were there which was a bit loud, but they didn’t stay after 11. We parked on N Campbell St and didn’t have any issue leaving the van there all day and night. It felt very safe. There was construction going on that blocked off some of the street parking but N Campbell was fine. A close walk to several bus stops.
Report Check-InHeard some gunshots very close to us around 9pm. In the morning very busy. Access to bathrooms, water in the main building by the pool. The pool was not accessible neither were the showers.
Report Check-InGreat spots on all four streets surrounding the park. No meters/permits/worries! May have to hear construction trucks early in AM, and it is in front of residences so be respectfully, and you’ll be fine. It isn’t the flattest though so a slight tilt may be your only sacrifice.
Report Check-InBest spot in Chicago for a quiet(ish) night sleep. We spent 4 nights in different places, and this was the best to sleep. Nice park for the dog, and mellow neighborhood feel. Be considerate of the homeowners or I could see them start to complain....
Report Check-InStayed here one night with several other obvious rigs. No one appeared to have an issues aside from some rando lighting off fireworks in the park at 2 AM.
Report Check-InSpot is as previous posters described. Park is nice & quiet. Great place to stop for the night if you're traveling with your pets.
Report Check-InAwesome park area, stayed one night. Most people in the area were super friendly, but one or two residents didn’t seem thrilled about the high top transit blocking their park views across the street. We moved to a section that was in front of an empty lot to try and keep the peace. If you have a dog this is the place to be. Lots of off leash run time
With other pups in the park.
Excellent spot. We stayed on the south end of the street close to the swimming pool. It was quiet and there were hardly any other cars. Highly recommended.
