Millbrook offers small-village calm along the Fox River with quick connections across Kendall County. Outdoor time is easy to find: the 2,000-acre Silver Springs State Fish and Wildlife Area brings year-round hiking, kayaking, fishing, archery, and winter sports. Everyday conveniences, dining, and events await just minutes away in Yorkville and Plano.
Culture and nature meet nearby. Tour the iconic Farnsworth House, a Mies van der Rohe landmark on the river. The Kendall County Forest Preserve District maintains superb sites close to town, including Hoover Forest Preserve with scenic overlooks and Richard Young Forest Preserve for quiet woodland hikes. Naturalists prize the rare habitats at Maramech Woods Nature Preserve, celebrated for spring wildflowers and birding. When summer hits, families cool off at Raging Waves Waterpark in Yorkville.
Most village addresses are served by Newark Community High School District 18 and Newark CCSD 66, known for small class sizes, hands-on learning, and spirited athletics.
