Klondike Homes for Sale

Klondike, a residential neighborhood in McHenry, Illinois, is nestled within the Chain O’Lakes waterway system, offering residents scenic views of Fox Lake and Grass Lake. This area, once a rural retreat for Chicagoans, has evolved from summer cabins to a mix of split-level, ranch-style, Tudor, and modern homes, many of which have been renovated or expanded. All homes are within half a mile of lake access. Local students attend Grass Lake School, known for its small class sizes, and the highly rated Antioch Community High School, which offers a variety of extracurricular activities. While Klondike lacks traditional parks, it compensates with ample water access points and marinas, such as Inland Harbor Marina and Mutiny Boat Club & Pub, which provide boating services and lakeside dining. Blarney's Island hosts boat races on Thursdays during the summer. Nearby, Grant Woods Forest Preserve in Lake Villa offers prairies, woodlands, and marshes for nature enthusiasts. Dining options in Klondike include Cuda’s Bar & Grill and El Puerto, both providing enjoyable meals in relaxed settings. For shopping and errands, residents typically drive to Antioch’s downtown area, about six miles away, where they can find boutique shops and grocery stores like Jewel-Osco and Piggly Wiggly.
