From the stylish store windows to the colorful flower baskets, Downtown Crystal Lake is a thriving and beautiful Historic Main Street. Businesses are proud to display their products and services, shoppers relish the pedestrian walkways and diners love our restaurants.
Downtown Crystal Lake offers a year-round calendar of family-friendly events such as Farmers Market, Johnny Appleseed Festival and the Festival of Lights Parade. All of our events are organized and staffed by volunteers. Business owners and community residents contribute their time, talent and funds to keep our downtown filled with activity.
