The Hilton Garden Inn was within 15 minutes of Lake Forest College, and 15 minutes the other direction to Vernon Hills where a larger shopping area with restuarants are. The property was large enough to accommodate us, rooms were spacious and clean, and all of the staff were very nice. Particularly the morning breakfast staff.
