Lake Bluff was chosen by famous writer Ray Bradbury as the location for his short story "The Lake."
Lake Bluff is an interesting little town just north of Chicago. Newcomers might think that they are going to need to look elsewhere for entertainment -- after all, how exciting can it be when there aren't quite 6,000 people living here? Well, a local saying is that once a person visits Lake Bluff, they will never want to leave; even after that final crossing, residents' spirits remain behind. If that isn't a five-star review of Lake Bluff, we don't know what is! To highlight this local lore, every other year the Lake Bluff History Museum has a Ghost Walk where local residents dressed like ghosts and ghouls tell stories about the town. You will also want to be sure and catch the Independence Day Parade each year to see the latest performance of the synchronized lawnmowers. Yep, you heard me right. View Lake Bluff City Guide
