Lee Street Beach is a popular attraction located along the stunning coastline of Lake Michigan. Known for its beautiful sand and water, it provides a great hangout spot for visitors looking to enjoy the sun or build sandcastles. The beach is a serene environment, with a clear policy of no dogs allowed to maintain its cleanliness.
Despite its natural beauty, Lee Street Beach is facing challenges due to rising water levels, which have contributed to the shrinking shoreline. It remains a great place to relax and soak in the picturesque views of one of Illinois's finest beaches. Families and friends gather here to spend quality time in a peaceful setting.
