Green Oaks blends quiet, tree-filled neighborhoods with easy access to regional amenities, offering a relaxed pace just minutes from I‑94 and commuter options in nearby Libertyville and Lake Forest. Residents value the village’s conservation-minded planning and spacious lots, supported by responsive local government at the Village of Green Oaks. Its location in Lake County means you’re close to shopping and dining in Vernon Hills, equestrian trails near Mettawa, and beloved community events all year.
Weekends often start outdoors. The beach, bike paths, concerts, and kayak rentals at Independence Grove Forest Preserve are a short drive away, and the Des Plaines River Trail stretches for miles of scenic riding, running, and wildlife viewing. With so much open space nearby, it’s easy to find a favorite loop, picnic grove, or fishing spot.
Schools are a standout. Many K–8 students attend the acclaimed Oak Grove School District 68, while others are served by the small, community-centric Rondout School District 72. For high school, families are part of Community High School District 128, home to nationally recognized academics, arts, and athletics. Add in seasonal festivals and destination dining in downtown Libertyville, and Green Oaks delivers a polished, small-community feel with big conveniences close by.
