Sitting at the heart of Grayslake, the Village Center is a place where community members and visitors can gather, play and get centered.

It’s a place where there is always something going on, and where old school charm meets modern attitudes. Meander from the historic downtown to parks, trails, civic institutions and so much more for an experience that’s unmistakably local and uniquely Grayslake.

Support Local This Holiday Season


During this holiday season, we encourage you to shop and dine local. There are a variety of opportunities including purchasing gift cards at local businesses, choosing local dining destinations for your holiday get-togethers, and shopping for your loved ones for unique gifts at local retailers or through local organizations.

Supporting local businesses not only strengthens the local economy, but also fosters a sense of community, promotes unique products and services, and helps maintain the vibrant community of Grayslake we call home.

See our local shopping and dining options here and visit our Business Directory to get more information on these and other Village Center businesses to visit and support.
