SaveThe 531-acre McKinley Woods was acquired between 1931 and 2004.
McKinley Woods has two access areas, both in Channahon: Frederick's Grove and Kerry Sheridan Grove.
The preserve is part of the Des Plaines River preservation system, which conserves more than 2,400 acres. Prior to the District's acquisition of the land, it was a private resort and was commonly called "Moose Island." The Frederick's Grove Shelter is a remnant of a Civilian Conservation Corps camp that was built on the site.
