Celebrating in Lake Villa
Lake Villa takes its name from the string of lakes around it, including Deep Lake, Cedar Lake and Fox Lake nearby, and the village keeps a relaxed, lake-country feel. Route 59 and Grand Avenue cross the area, a small downtown holds shops and restaurants, and neighborhoods range from older lake cottages to larger newer homes on open lots. Getting a feel for how Lake Villa is laid out, from the main roads to the quiet side streets, is the first step in planning a smooth delivery.
Sloped lots and docks mean plenty of steps. Lighter chairs help when trucks cannot reach the lawn.
Concessions here: Concession machines need a level table and an outlet; popcorn and cotton candy machines each use a standard circuit, so avoid sharing it with a bounce house blower.
Backyard tents are the norm in spring. Book early for late May and June.

Machines are self-serve with a volunteer; carts often include an attendant, so check what is included.
