  • This beach is in Centennial Park in Evanston, IL This picture was taken at sunset which was happening on the opposite side but I'm facing east here and you can see the sunset reflection on the horizon. It was perfect timing because water was very calm and it was hard to tell were skies connect with water on the horizon.

Charming Lakeshore Gem

We loved our stay in this gem nestled in Evanston’s Lakeshore District. We stayed in the three-bedroom unit on the top floor—with ample space to spread out and relax, take walks, and head down to the beach. Janet was super-responsive, friendly, and accommodating. Highly recommend!
