Mills Park surrounds the historic Pleasant Home property in Oak Park, combining lawns, mature trees and paths with a distinctive architectural setting.
It offers an outdoor way to experience the grounds even when a visit to the house itself is not part of the plan.
Check park information and separate house-tour arrangements before arrival; a walk through the public grounds does not include unrestricted access inside Pleasant Home. The photograph shows a path and autumn landscape within the park. Seasonal foliage and scheduled activities can change the character of a visit.
