The Morton Arboretum is really one of the top places in Lisle and a big attraction. People come from all over to visit. It has beautiful paths to stroll along and lots to ease. Students can get good educational material there about plants and animal behaviour.There is a really cool maze to walk through so you can feel like a giant mouse for awhile. Pack a picnic and bring the family. It's nice to visit in the evening as well.

Lisle's community library is impressive, considering that you can search for books, renew existing books, and place requests from the comfort of your own home computer. They send out electronic reminders when your books are nearing their due dates, which are usually quite helpful.
Their overall book selection is impressive, but a little dated. The computer/IT section is decidedly outdated, but it seems like they're trying to maintain current books as well. The AV room blew me away with its selection of cds and dvds for "rental." Every month, it seems like they get at least a dozen new books and dvds-- impressive by any standard.
Atmosphere-wise, it is sorely lacking. There's no coffee cart, and the overall decor reeks of the early 1970s. Natural lighting is at a minimum, and chairs/tables remind me of a junior high homeroom. With a little work and renovation, the Lisle library could be quite the reader's destination. But for now, I'll take my book and read at home.

The only drawback I have against this club is its close proximity to Route 53. The first tee is right there. I am a lefty, so my slice carried many balls directly toward this busy street, which added to my anxiety and messed up my already unsure swing. The remainder of the course is fun. I actually shot some of my best holes on this course. It's convenient and fairly easy to get on.

Dick Pond's is a favorite among many runners in the Chicago Suburb area. They have the most knowledgable staff around and have a great selection of high quality name brand shoes. Their prices are amazing and even have clearance bins where you can pick up discontinued products for dirt cheap. I have bought from there for years, and will continue to buy from there for years to come. Overall i give Dick Pond's a five out of five.

I was not too impressed with this bowling alley. It seemed kind of dirty and was definitely older and needed remodeling. They did not have a very good selection of lower weight balls. The equipment was not up to date like other bowling alleys in the area.
