Centennial Grill - Naperville

Beautiful beach, sand volleyball and a beach house with restrooms, snack shop, patio seating and on summer weekends there is a small local band with live music. Perfect atmosphere for family, kids and friends galore. Please note there are no lifeguards but if you're a cautious swimmer and are familiar with Lake Michigan, it's a great place to dip in the water. My favorite go-to place!

Wonderful time at the beach with my niece and grand nephews. Best place to bring out of town family. Friendly staff and clean water. Snack shop was perfect treat for all.

Nice place, but $5.50 for this sad salad? Foul10/10 does not recommend. Go with the nachos.

I visited here last Friday and it was a good alternative to driving to downtown Chicago for the beach. The water was definitely more green/dark looking than at a pool or real beach though. There's a big lot with free parking right next to it. Residents and their guests pay alot less than non-residents as well which is a downside if you're not from the area. There are plenty of bathrooms right when you walk in after an attendant checks your bags. People cannot bring glass bottles, liquor or smoke here. I was able to get a family room right away even though there was a lot of people. There's a wadding area for smaller kids and then a deeper end for swimmers. There's lots of tables set up which can be used to eat snacks you bring or buy some there.

I 'm a lifelong pool lover and had to check out Centennial. Could not have been more impressed. It sort of feels like a lake the water is cold and cloudy, and it 's so huge. 4 50 meter lap lanes are open all day long, which is awesome. Swimming laps in a 50 meter lane (without being able to see underwater! is not for the faint of heart I got a great workout in here! The deep part with all the diving platforms is super awesome as well. There are a lot of teenagers over there, but they keep to themselves and don 't bother the adults who are just swimming around, treading and enjoying the water. It 's also pretty cheap to get in even as a nonresident the waterparks in Tinley and Orland Park are like $20/day and they don 't even come close to comparing to Centennial, which is only $14/day (and $7 after 5pm I believe . Location is fantastic, right in downtown Naperville, so many options to go out for dinner after a long day of swimming. Overall, highly recommend!!!
