2. site analysis & existing conditions 2. Park use & recreation Lake Ellyn Park includes a number of amenities and features: • Lake Ellyn, a 10 acre water body with approximately 3,340 feet of shoreline, used for fishing, nonmotorized boating, and ice skating • Lake Ellyn boathouse, a 75-year-old structure that seats 150 people, which can be rented for events and gatherings. The boathouse includes the park’s only restrooms (public, open from April through October), and serves as a warming shelter for ice skaters • A large wooden deck extends from the east side of the boathouse, and provides fishing access to the lake • Over 10 acres of wooded open park space, and picnic space with tables and grills • Over a mile of walking paths (some paved, some soft-surface) • A playground with climbing structures, slides, and swings • Two clay tennis courts, which currently require membership for a nominal fee to use • Park accouterments including benches, lighting, drinking fountains, and picnic tables • A Veteran’s Memorial The existing park facilities are generally in good repair, but many are dated and at the end of their design life, including the playground, and some of the trails/walking paths and benches. The clay tennis courts are maintained by the Glen Ellyn Park District Tennis Association. The boathouse will be discussed in greater detail below. existing recreation at Lake Ellyn Park Lake Ellyn Park Master Plan 17
