Arrington Lagoon at Dawes Park — photo spot in 1647 Sheridan Rd, Evanston, IL 60201, USA
Arrington Lagoon at Dawes Park
Score4.0Small coastal lagoon tucked inside Dawes Park with reed beds, shallow water, and views across Sheridan Rd to Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline. Great for golden-hour reflections, waterfowl and abstract ice patterns in winter. Free entry, limited parking along Sheridan and small park lots; accessible paths but some uneven shorelines. Best at sunrise/sunset for low light and color; weekdays avoid crowds. Spring/fall migration boosts bird activity.
