"Great Bike park! All skills trails. Friendly staff and reasonably priced rentals from bikes to riding protectors that I think they are a must! Lots of fun! Please extend the lift hours to like 6pm that would be great! Jumpline is the best!!!"

"Fantastic Lift access Mountain Biking park with some serious features IN ILLINOIS! You'd never expect something like this only 2.5 hours from Chicago, but here we are. The trails are in great shape, jump lips are pristine, everything is marked clearly and there are plenty of warning signs everywhere for surprise features. Took me over 3 hours to ride each trail for the first time, and you WILL want to do your favorite trails more than once. Hell, you can session the blue "jump line" all day long on its own. Its such a treat to have something like this without a crazy drive. I only wish it was open past 4 PM, especially on weekends, but if I have to wake up early to get there on opening hour; so be it. Also the view from the top is something else."

"Trails are awesome and professionally built perfect. Everything is laid out to be very fun and flowy without being overly intimidating. It’s definitely a good place for a wide variety of skill levels, but caters towards more towards the intermediate then it would people looking for huge gnarly hits or insane rock gardens. I really fully enjoy and respect what they’re doing there and we’re very lucky to have it in the Midwest! Chestnut is a beautiful resort with awesome views over the Mississippi. I highly recommend checking out the park this summer!"
