Refined community with access to public and private golf courses
Evoking the spirit of the namesake historical novel by Sir Walter Scott, Ivanhoe offers the refined charms of country-club-living on the north side of Mundelein. The namesake Ivanhoe Club opened in 1991, turning the existing Smith estate on the grounds into one of Lake County’s premier social destinations. The coming decades would bring homes, expansions to the golf course and PGA Tour affiliated events to the neighborhood, making it a prestigious choice on the northeast end of Chicagoland. Life beyond the grounds would also grow as the village of Mundelein entered the new millennium and became desirable as an alternative to the bustle of the city. "One thing that residents appreciate about Mundelein's location is that it's only 35 miles from Chicago. But there's also a lot to do in Mundelein as well. We have weekly farmer's markets, art fairs, and summer festivals," says Scott Adams, president of the regional Green Oaks, Libertyville, Mundelein, Vernon Hill Chamber of Commerce. While the Ivanhoe area is the site of much new development, settlers planted their roots long ago establishing the Ivanhoe Congregational Church. Established in 1838, the church is recognized as the oldest organized church in Lake County and still holds services today. Other houses of worship in the area include the Longmeadow Community Church and The Chapel in Mundelein.
