One of the nicest parks in Kankakee County. Fun Dig Days event
The animals were out today, spent like $2 on feed.. best day ever
Always love coming here for the hiking trails
Beautiful, peaceful and Serene. Plenty of parking. The walking pads are paved. You can access the Kankakee River which is beautiful. Currently the childrens play area is closed due to covid-19 however it looks like a lovely place. I would highly recommend for a day outside gorgeous setting
Great farm themed Park for kids. Nice cushioned ground for protection. Beautiful trees. Many hiking paths.
This is a really cool place to visit. The waterfalls are really neat, but the hike is not for your average hikers. They normally have lots of stuff to do for kids. The river is great too. I would highly recommend this has a family function.
We came here for The Indian Caves. It was a bit tough to find as there wereno maps on the paved trail. We for me the cabes almost by accident so my advice is to follow the asphalt path to the Kankakee river and go into the caves there. Its a tough hike, but well worth it. Bring water/hiking shoes as you can either follow the path through the woods (looking down on the caves), or go through the water. We followed the water with an 8 year old and a 4 year old. Water doesnt get deep, but the rocks are slippery so take your time. It is amazing though.
Pretty farm park... Ive lived around this area forever and been out this way a bunch of times. Only now have I experienced this park. This place is so well maintained, the paths are very nice. The equipment is awesome. Walk down to the Indian caves and check that out as well. Ill check out the kids museum next time Im out.
The girls had a BLAST!! Highly recommend!! Great way to spend a day with your kiddos 💕 so much for their little hands and minds!!
Perry Farm is Bourbonnais best kelped secret. From dawn to dust, there is plenty to do and see for all ages around Perry Farm and along the river trail. The beautiful prairie will captivate your attention all year round.
Has a park, an exploration station and trails. A great place to go with friends or family or b alone. Most people enjoy walking through the water and seeing the Indian caves. Its also a good place to set up a picnic, throw a frisbee and make memories.
Fun park, many wheelchair friendly paths. The real draw are the Indian Caves. Be careful going too high up, there are many places where you could legitimately fall and seriously injure yourself. Exploring the caves doesnt have to be dangerous, just know your limits and have a friend with you. Its a great park and a hidden gem of the area. Its not exactly the kind of place you could explore for weeks, you could easily see everything in a single day.
Best park hands down for your little ones! They have a beautiful trail to walk bikes or take a walk. Good place to have a family day!
Great place for some outdoor adventure. Highly recommend going through the trails in the trees to get the full beauty.
Great place to have fun with the family and take pics.
This park is one of the best in the area for walk/run/biking trails. There are many chances to see wild animals when on the trails. Along with the huge park and trails is a great playground for children, and a childrens museum. A must visit for anyone in the area and travelers. Beautiful hiking along the creek/waterfall.
I love the rubber and bouncy turf at the playground here!! My daughter and I love to go feed the horses and goats! The walking trails have been a fav of mine for many many years!! Serene and beautiful out there!
Fun hike, great for all levels of hikers. Beautiful.
Live farm animals to pet and to feed. Bring a few quarters to (conveniently) buy a handful of their favorite chow. May see: ponnies, pigs, a friendly white duck, little donkeys, chickens, a lamb or two, and our favorite -- the variety of goats.
Ladies at the front desk were very nice and helpful, lots of activities for the kids plus other special events at the park
Great place for kids and family!! Have an outhouse so we can stay and play and not worry about accidents
One of the most peaceful and beautiful place Ive ever been to. Always therapeutic on a good or bad day
Great park.. title pricy..but ..other than that...its alright
Very nice park, good place to chill and hangout
Inexpensive fun for the entire family
Wonderful park for kids of all ages; creative farm theme and well kept, cushioned ground! What a gem!
A perennial favourite place to stop and visit: Animals, the wide open fields (perfect for sports, games or running off energy), a great well-kept playground, and places to relax and enjoy the scenery. One of Bradley’s hidden gems.
Very nice place to get out for some fresh air. Well maintained park.
The building is very clean!. With all interative play themes in every crook and cranny of the building...The staff cobtinuously clean through out the day 4 or 5 times to maintain the upmost standard for these times..I took my sons as children and now I have rhe sweet pleasure of taking my grandchildren!! Children need play and lsnguage and its a great place to support both!!🙂
Beautiful paved nature walk.
Nice area to walk though. There are many trails that curve off and bring you close to the water. Theres also water fountains near the exploration station. The pavilions are nice, and spacious. Id say its the most peaceful area around here for walking, exploring, or just sitting. The road Coyne street has a beautiful pavilion and bench looking out into the water and I think its where most people hang out together. Otherwise they walk next to the river and follow the trails. Ive noticed too that there isnt much litter there.
Clean park with great paths and places to see tons of wildlife.
Not too many animals but they have goats and mini ponies u can pet and feed nice walking trails and a beautiful park
Lived here all my life, always just a walk away from p farm. love the actual farm, love the park, the sitting areas, food and gas station right across the street for snacks. and of course you cant forget the indian caves. if you want to just have a nice day in nature, with some fun (safe) climbing and have a river and a place to swim. perry farm is your place to be
Very clean and the play ground equipment is new, expesically love the farm theme!
Absolutely wonderful park/trail. The Indian cave is beautiful. The barns and childrens museum are somethings I look forward to visiting with my daughter and wife. Perry Farm definitely deserves multiple visits.
Beautiful and spacious. I wasnt expecting it to look the way it does. Makes me regret not going in the warm weather. But its definitely on my go back list. I will post photos later
The gals at the Park District office are absolutely wonderful & have great personalities! I had tons of questions, which they answered. Very kind, very helpful & a pleasure to deal with!
Had a great talk with Park personnel and got literature for activities.
Beautiful place. I think the website should have a map of running, hiking and walking paths. They are marked once on the trail but most like having an idea on how to plan day there.
Are your children 2 or under? Theyve got activities for them.Toddlers all the way to elementary? There are things for them to enjoy, as well!Middle schoolers and irritable teenagers? Guess what? They can have fun, too!From the Exploration Station to the Indian Caves, there are activities for the entire family to enjoy at Perry Farms. I highly encourage anyone wanting to unplug and enjoy some time with their family to come and savor a day (or a week) exploring all of the various activities at Perry Farm!
Great little park! New playground, beautiful pscenery and paved trail down to river and also connects to others parks and State Park. Highly recommend for a 2-4 mile quick scenic walk/hike. Since trail is asphalt can ride bikes and should be wheelchair accessible too. Can get a chance to get wet too.
Always a great day when you can spend time outdoors. Still a very safe location. Safe for everyone
Every time Im here its a new and exciting adventure. Having a picnic, walking the woods, and seeing a limited-time monument. A must-see for anyone.
Always have nice walks & love the caves!!!!
Beautiful place but sometimes very busy
Beautiful Park...Very Clean... Seen the Wall that Heals there...Was a moving experience...
Great place for the family and nature exploration.Trails in the woods and paths around the woods for bikes, ect.Theres also a park kids love.Will definitely be going back.
Wonderful park! There is no wood chips for my kids to ingest. Has a rubber mat throughout which makes it easy to tell my kids their boundaries, and Im not worried about them falling and scraping knees or hitting too hard.
Fantastic, relaxing place. Able to sit and talk with family and friends. Very nice playground. Many walking trails for you to relax and enjoy.
Beautiful park for outdoor activities.
A great place to get outside and have fun. Walking trails, indian caves, exploration station for kids, beautiful park, always something fun and family friendly going on there.
Great place to take kids or enjoy a nice walk. The playgrounds are nice and have plenty of room for a number of kids to all play on.
It was a nice place to visit. I enjoyed watching my grand kids play. It was a crowd. They need to expand it a little. The bathroom was clean. Why the Black parks are not padded like that?
One of the best playgrounds Ive ever been to!
Nice place for a walk or jog. Very clean trails.
I like this for a small city park. some pretty scenery.
The park was very beautiful brought my dogs and they had a blast will be going back soon
Perry Farm was very busy. I was impressed with the scarecrows. It was nice to see so many families out both looking at the scarecrows & playing in the childrens playground. Its a beautiful place to go for a walk. I never tire of walking along the river or visiting the Indian Caves & dreaming of days long gone by. The wildflowers & wildlife are cool too. Its a place my children & grandchildren enjoy.
Best by far playgrounds for children
Such a beautiful and interesting place! Great place to picnic or go for a walk. Beautiful natural prairie, woods and river paths. Great for the kiddos, the Playground, the Farm, and Exploration Station! Must see in the Fall season!
Great place for an early morning walk.
Amazing park for small children with a variety of farm themed equipment. Very cute and the safe, the ground covering was a recycled tire cushion ( best way to describe it.) Had a picnic in the nearby seating area.
I love this place. Nice cement walkway, clean, a playground for kids, they do have restrooms but sometimes they are locked. Also connects to some other walkpaths along the river.
Always a great time at Perry Farm! There is so much to do for everyone, from kids to adults. Great way to connect with nature and right in the middle of town! It is my sons favorite place to go. We cant wait to try out the new and improved park!
Great park lots of fun
I really love the flooring on this playground. Its soft and not messy lol my baby girl liked the swings where I could also sit with her
Lovely place for a nice hike!
Very nice park, have enjoyed it for the 15 years we have lived here. But this day was special, as we were there to see the traveling Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall. Very moving experience. Not quite the same as the actual Wall in D.C. but catch it somewhere if you can.
I used to live in Bradley/bourbonnais. I biked at Perry farm often, and my favorite part is the unpaved mountain bike trails through the woods. Its not very busy on the unpaved trails, and a fairly easy to moderate ride which is great for beginners. The only reason its not 5 stars is there arent any maps, or marked routes so youre not sure when one splits off and is ride able, or just a dead end deer trail into a thicket.
So lit so lit. Out there sunshine, people and grass. Straight up.
There are plenty of paths that take you right into nature. There are places for picnics and bathrooms, making it perfect for outdoor family parties. The grounds are extensive, giving you lots to explore. For the kids, there is a playground and the Exploration Station. The park is free, but you do have to pay a little bit to get into the Station. Its worth it, though.
How can you not love this place? There is so much space for activites and a large paved path for jogging and exercise. Ive been going here to spend warm summer days many times in my life. There are trails through the forest as well that are always fun to explore. There are the Indian caves to explore and the pool of water next to the caves that is just deep enough to have fun in. There are dirt jumps for bmx riders on some of the trails that are probably not always maintained but when they are they are nice to use.
Good place for a walk or picnic
Very beautiful great place to jog or ride bikes!!!!!
My kids love the playground here, great fun for all my little ones!
Perry farm has fantastic outdoor activities for all ages. The exploration station is awesome for kids and the petting zoo is a lot of fun. I highly recommend it for a visit. The Indian caves and trails are perfect for someone who wants to take a hike. Give it a try its beautiful.
Good trail. Paved for walking, biking, or skating. Lots of wildflowers and sun. Some shady parts. Benches scattered around for resting.
Excellent playground awesome farm beautiful walking trails great place to spend the whole day
Nice large park, with several ares of things to do& large paved walking path. Plenty of free parking.
Lots of paved trails. Play area. Exploration station is a paid indoor center for kids. Dogs, biking, jogging, fishing on the river or walking trails by a creek. Its a great place. Not to mention the small farm. More animals and it would get 5 stars.
Beautiful nature walk along the Kankakee River and amazing views of the Indian Caves
I go to the little park that has the swings and other stuff for the kids to play on. Lots of shade around the area and the outdoor padding they used for the playground is very nice and cushioned in case a kid falls, or an adult acting like a kid....
This park does many events for the community that are free. it would be great if more places around Community do this kind of thing as well. There are not many free things to do for somebody who wants to do something Outdoors or indoors for that matter. Most of these events are family friendly and little kids can have a blast.
My daughter was having her weddingPictures done there. We had some funand cake got a little wet, cold. The rainStop at the end but overall we had AGreat time!😂💕
The small petting zoo was cute
Beautiful place to take a walk in nature! The Indian Caves are a great place to stop by and explore. You can ride your bike here as well for there are paths. Highly recommend.
We come every year for their Walk through Sleep Hollow and are blown away each year by their production. From the acting to the action they deliver on great autumn memories with attractions for the whole family! Loved every minute of it and cant wait again for next year!
We went back to the Indian caves and walked a few miles of trails. We ate at a pavilion then called the beautiful paths. The paths were smooth wide. There was people and very little trash
New park is nice and has lots to do. Rubber ground is really hot though, around 20 degrees hotter then the actual outside temp! Only has 2 baby and 2 kid swings, needs a lot more!
Went to the exploration station and my kids had such a great time. We went during donation hours so we got to pay what we could and really had an awesome time. So many things to do.
Second time here, we love it.
Fun park, fun to see the animals, great museum, and great trails
A beautiful park, childrens museum, nature preserve and farm, even when there are no special events taking place! For the kids: dwarf horses and farm animals to pet, Exploration Station, farm and playground. For adults: miles of paved bike and walking paths through prairie grass or woods to the Kankakee River and Indian Caves. Many events take place here as well, including vintage car and farm equipment shows, concerts and seasonal presentations. Too many to name! A real gem often overlooked by locals.
Quiet and beautiful. I find a great deal of peace walking the trails and paths here. This area lacks walking paths. We are fortunate to have such a beautiful place to enjoy, I wish we had more places like this one.
Bets place for kids.... And a cool hike if you can find the spot. Its a good challenge.
I love Perry Farm I use to explore the trails and loved the view of nature I use to get excited when I start walking on the road before the bridge I loved the suspense of it I couldnt wait to see familiar faces that was the exciting part I love that place the trails the Indian caves were so esquite I use to imagine how Indians stayed here Im impressed by the structure of the caves and how there lives must of been i loved the feeling you got when you went down them trails and of course friends and smiling faces around me made it memorable I encourage anyone who ever reads this please give it a chance if you havent its a gorgeous place to spend time in one with nature and people whom ever are close to you to check it out I miss it and it will forever be in my heart and memory until I die god bless Perry Farm whom ever made it possible I salute you guys. Thanks for a god like place 🙏❤️
A beautiful night out for FREE music. Big crowd, nice weather and good music.Nice to hear live music again
Great for family fun
Nice playground. Exploration Station is amazing. The walking paths are amazing, and so is the creek. Clean and well kept. There is a nice shelter house with picnic tables.
Love their walking paths, farm-themed playground, childrens museum, scarecrow festival, so much to love about this place! Go! Enjoy fresh air and down to earth fun!
Love going to perry farm the kids park is great & people are friendly. The walking paths are always well kept & clean. Its a great place for families to go.
Absolutely amazing place to visit in Hayle! 5/5 me and my sister didn’t realise how big it was. The facilities fantastic clean and the system was great .. i will definitely recommend it for family with children and friends.
This park is usually clean and there are a lot of different things to enjoy (playground, feeding animals, walks, biking, and exploration station). They could make their toddler play area better.
I love walking the trails but today there was so much dog poo on the trail it was disgusting! If the owners werent going to pick up after their dogs (obviously they werent) they could at least take them off the trail where people walk. Its a shame that a few unresponsable owners can ruin things for everyone else. I think fines should be imposed.
The playground is superb, the trails through the prairie are nice for walking or biking, and the animals are friendly enough to pet.
I love this place. Ive been going here before it was a public park. There are many things worth exploring, but now I go for the childrens museum. Its less crowded than Frankfort or Naperville, and there is a lot for the kids to do, inside and outside.
I had a great time with my nieces playing at the park. It was nice getting out with them being that it was my first time here.
I love roller skating here! the trails are in great condition and the natural trees and plants are beautiful. Definitely recommend!
Perry Farm Park is a great place to walk, relax, etc. I walk my dog Happy at the park whenever I get a chance, and the weather cooperates.
Very exciting and relaxing place. Very good for children to explore.
So much fun! Exploration station has a baby area and pretend play, a castle, tools a diner, etc. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. We spent hours here!
The new playground was amazing..well done..my 5 year old thoroughly enjoyed it and i loved seeing her joy shared with other kids there as well..always nice to enjoy the outdoors at Perry Farm
So much to do for all ages. Love the sponge ground for the littles.
Perry Farms offers a nice getaway without driving out of town. From the playgrounds for younger children to the grassy areas for adolescents to play in, to the paths to walk, run, or bike along, Perry Farm offers a lot to everyone who wants to visit! Make sure to keep an eye out for hummingbirds in the springtime.
Beautiful and extensive pathways. The loop runs along the river, near the Indian caves, and near neighborhoods and smaller playgrounds. There is also a farm, where for a quarter, you can pay a feed machine and have horses, sheep, and adorable goats eat out of your hands, with the exception of the duck and chickens. They have a childrens museum, the Exploration Station, where you can take children ages 2-7 here for fun and various activities. This is the main location for BTPD. Perry Farms farmhouse is actually the main office, with a lovely garden surrounding it.
Nice place to just go walk w the family in nature and explore. And the kids always like the animals. The caves area is interesting as well.
My Granddaughter loves this place. We havent quite made it through the park area yet because of the bad weather here, but we will as soon as we can get some decent non raining days
Great place to take kids or take a walk. Plenty of room to picnic!
Love this park! Pet and feed the goats and ponies, play on the playground or walk the trails! They also host a wide variety of activities throughout the year
Newer, clean equipment. Always lots of kids to play with. My 4 year old.loves it.
This park is beautiful. Playgrounds are nice and pavilions and animal exhibits are nice. You can rent space in their public garden.
Great place to take the family. Took a bike ride yesterday and the trails were perfect. The only downfall is there needs to be water fountains somewhere on the trails.
One of my favorite places to go! I always find something new there, and its such a beautiful place to be. Its great for a person of any age and for furry friends!
Great place to play at the new farm-themed park, have a picnic lunch, feed the animals, explore the trails down by the river & indian caves & visit the Exploration Station Childrens Museum.
Great natural resources for the area
Its a great place to get away and explore nature. Im happy to see some efforts be put into saving our ecosystems.
Just all around great place to bring kids of all ages... Has a place for kids in the building an a updated park for kids an pretty Big.
I love this place. To the park, the farm, the trails. Its all around a wonderful place to bring the family or just go for a walk with your fur baby.
We rode the trails on Tuesday and it was a beautiful day! Since this was my girlfriends 1st time it was a good starter trail for us to ride.
I great place to just go for a walk and be with nature . Peaceful place , clean and pet friendly . Handicap friendly with lots of shaded , paved paths . Great for family bike rides along the Kankakee river .
I love going here. If your an individual that loves trails and hiking then this is a place for you! For being located in kankakee its a wonderful park and would recommend it to anyone.
One of my favorite cheap and easy family bonding places(: from walking(or biking) the trails, exploring the woods to viewing the animals family enjoyed outdoor fun
Great park, very well kept and lots to do for most ages
Beautifully done area for family adventures. Great for jogging and biking. As well as an amazing nature trail.
Absolutely amazing place to visit! . The waterfalls are really neat and the river is great too!
My husband & I have loved Perry Farm for over 30 years, taken our 3 sons there til they were old enough to go themselves. They love it & now take their families there, too. Its part of us, individually, & as a family.Its also part of our village, Bradley, & Bourbonnais, & Kankakee, & all the cities around us; spreading to & connecting our families in an even greater village.
As a school bus driver, I need to remain with the bus throughout any field trip. Me and another bus driver were not allowed to use the restroom in the park fieldhouse although it was open. The staffers we quite rude about the situation.
Super fun trails that you find on your way and even better dirt jumps by the exit towards keno park
Great place to walk and get a nice workout. Relaxing , refreshing and beautiful scenery ,specially if you do the entire long walk. 👍🤗
I enjoyed it . But the animals should have been sprayed down in the pens . They over heated.. look l8ke no water in thete bowls.
My friend and I were walking on the paths. We also, had seen some birds and squirrels.
Always love bringing the kids here for an afternoon. Doesnt matter if its for the park, the trails, or the animals. Always a good time.
Its a peaceful park that is well keptAlso the playground equipment is relatively new about 2 years old
Kids friendly and chan place. Fun for adults too
Beautiful park. They have events here going on quite frequently. I just saw a production here by The Acting Out Theatre Co. and it was wonderful (the show and the park).
Such a beautiful park it doesnt matter if your alone, with family, friends and so on. This park is so relaxing walking on it.
Nice place for whole family to enjoy, all the animals, picnic area, trails, playground. Real nice place! Highly recommend
Best park around the area except when theres a person smoking right near all the kids
One of our favorite parks in the area. Great playground and there are also quite a few walking trails.
Great open park, beautiful variety of foliage and woods. Walk, run, bike paths are great.
Nice area to spend time with nature. Nice walking paths. Beautiful scenery.
Beautiful. Has wonderful side trails by the creek, although they are just dirt trails. Best place to fly a kite.
I love mustangs!
Love the farm, animals, park, and trails. So much fun.
The staff is fantastic. My littles loved feeding and petting the animals.
Went to a party at the pavilion. Only complaint was I wished they had a covering around the building so you could walk from the main area to the bathrooms without getting wet from the rain.
We used to ride our bikes in their I miss that with my kids now their grown. Beautiful place
The wind feel great around the yard this time of yr I recommend touring the area for more activities
Love the playground. Hiking trails are great for all ages. Playground has diabled swings too.
Why would anyone say less then 5 stars new bike trails a animal pet farm. New playground.. some people you just cant please
Very well designed and immaculately kept trails and grounds
Awesome park like no other Ive ever seen. Love the baby n me swings
Beautiful park with long trails. A good place to get out into nature.
Love it!! has a very fun park that my one year old has tons of fun at
Such an awesome place to bring the whole family! The animals are friendly and its fun getting to feed them
Just viewed the Scarecrows for 2021 and some of them are looking great!!
If you got kids youre going to love this place its really nice
Love seeing all the very nice fords there.Especially the mustangs.Great turn out this year for Cool cars
Great playground and family friendly nature trails.
Looking forward to the The Wall that Heals coming in June. Breathtaking, quiet, somber but so worth the trip to see it.
Beautiful place to walk and see the animals or lay shade tree and read a book
Great places to run and take pictures if your into photography. Beautiful trials and woods.
We get to go dinner and sit in the park. There is usually enough shade and space for everyone.
Beautiful piece of land that is decently up kept. Great place to hang out with family and friends.
Great new park for young kids. Very interactive with lots to do.
Great place to breath fresh air! Walking, running, hiking, biking, fishing, picnics. Any outside activity.

2022-03-23This park has something for everybody! Kids to adults! I personally love the ever changing prairie that grows between the bike/walking trails! The Indian cave area is super cool too! Just don’t swim in the river past the caves no matter how low. So many people have drowned there. Walk down the creek or along the banks as I have done since a teen, with my young kids, and now as an old lady lol summer is great for that. The Exploration Station was great when my kids were little and I hear it still is! They opened an adorable new playground in the last few years! Very interactive! And of course since Pokémon Go started multiple Pokestops! There’s a petting zoo and even gardens to rent if you want to grow your own veggies but don’t have room at home!

2022-05-21We love Perry Farm! We go all the time. The trails are always clean, staff is friendly, park is amazing and its fun that the trails connect through the community. I recommend going to the Exploration Station as well! So many great experiences for myself and my toddler here!

2021-10-16We loved visiting here! It was absolutely beautiful & wonderfully maintained. The trails were perfect for hiking/walking. You have to be careful as bikes can use them too. Theyre pretty easy so nearly anyone can do it. We visited the Indian Caves on our walk which was pretty cool too! Got to see the Kankakee River. Very cozy, nice place to go for an afternoon. Didnt get to visit the animals, but I will next time!

2022-06-01This place was amazing. Everything inside and out was clean, well-maintained and designed for multi-age fun. My two-year old was able to have a fantastic time right alongside all the big kids that were there. They have several play room scenarios with ALL the accoutrements including a Knights castle, a vets office, a grocery store, an emergency room and more. My toddler had a great time in the STEM area playing with a vacuum/forced air tubes, a flight simulator, and the water room. The staff was friendly--they even opened the patio for us so we could go outside and have snack. We ended the day on the spacious and well-appointed playground--again, great for different ages. The day was so action-packed we didnt have time to see the animals. If you have littles that need a nap and cant stay for more than a couple hours, I would recommend not trying to see everything. You will want to give them plenty of time to enjoy this gem of a center!

2022-04-16This is a great park! There are trails for walking/biking along the Kankakee river. This new park they put in is very child friendly with a separate area for younger children. Swings, slides, climbing activities, etc... Exploration Station is right there as well. Another great place for children with amazing learning toys/rooms.

2021-09-23I have enjoyed this park for over 30 years. Its a fun place to get away for a walk or a bicycle ride, or to get together with friends. I think that Executive Director Hollis Clark has done a wonderful job of keeping this park alive and making improvements along the way.Now is the time to go to the park, to enjoy the scarecrow exhibit that annually appears before Halloween.

2022-03-21Its a very lovely place they have animals lots of trails and just a fun place to go for exercise and fresh air.
Review №9
2021-07-31Great park with lots of shade. My only problem is the corn equipment at a FARM park, that looks nothing like actual corn. Its pretty disappointing from a teaching perspective, and the corn equipment itself is pretty useless compared to the other equipment there. Still a great park that we will revisit. Im just shocked about the corn honestly.

2022-04-07Just one beautiful park of many in Kankakee County... I have been going to Perry Farm since I was a little girl. I love the nature walks and enjoying what mother nature has to offer. Such a beautiful place to relax the mind.
