What I Like About Gurnee by: Grant S. Woodland Elementary School

I live in Gurnee. It was listed as one of the U.S.’s top 10 destinations. There are many fantastic places you can visit in Gurnee.

You can stay at KeyLime Cove which is a hotel and water park. Besides KeyLime Cove there is Culvers, which has really good hamburgers and ice cream. There is also KFC, which is connected to Long John Silver’s. Also there is McDonald’s and my favorite Starbucks. Also in Gurnee you can find Great America. Great America is a theme park and a water park. One of the biggest reasons people come here is Gurnee Mills. It has a ton of stores, restaurants, a movie theatre, an arcade and a ice rink.

What I Like About Gurnee by: Anthony Woodland Elementary School

I live in Gurnee, IL. Here we have some very good restaurants. There names are Friday’s, Su Casas, Culvers and Olive Garden. We also have one of the best hotels in the world. It is called KeyLime Cove.

There are some other hotels like Holiday Inn and Country Inn. There’s two pretty good malls called Hawthorn and Gurnee Mills. The two best things in Gurnee are Great America and KeyLime Cove which is right behind Culvers.

Next to Culvers is KFC and in front of that is Starbucks. Chipotle’s is right by Toy’s R Us, McDonalds and Lone Star. A little further down is Gurnee Mills and the movies. Some more restaurants are Portilos and KFC. That’s what’s good in Gurnee.

What I Like About Gurnee by: Willow Woodland Elementary School


I live in Gurnee, Illinois. It has been listed as on of the top 10 destinations to visit. If you want to go somewhere fantastic, you can go to Six Flags Great America, Gurnee Mills or KeyLime Cove. If you’re looking for great food you can to Kaisers, Culvers, Sukasa, Chipotle, and Golden Corral.

If you go to Six Flags you can to in entrances. One of the entrances is on Washington St. I suggest going on the Washington St. entrance because the other 2 entrances are normally very crowded. If you go on a hot summer day, I also suggest getting there early so you can one of the first people to get WET!!!!! If you go from October 21 or something Fright Fest starts. But yeah there are lots of fun things to do at Six Flags.

Another 2 places you can go are Gurnee Mills and KeyLime Cove. Gurnee Mills probably has about 250 stores. Gurnee Mills also has a lot of places to get food. KeyLime Cove has lots of rooms for people who want to stay for a few days. KeyLime Cove even has a water park inside.

For great food you can go to Kaisers, which is just about a half a mile from Jewel Osco. You can go to Culvers to get what you want. If you get a kids meal, you can get free ice cream with one topping. You also can go to Sukasa even though that’s about 25 min away from Gurnee, but it is worth it because they cook Japanese food right in front of you. And finally you can go to Golden Corral. At Golden Corral you can go and get what ever you want.

So these are some places you can go while you are in Gurnee, Illinois.
