Local Area & City Services
Downtown dining, the Riverwalk, and the city services that keep Naperville running — the best of what’s just outside Devonshire.
The Naperville Riverwalk
A 1.75-mile brick path winding along the DuPage River through the heart of downtown, connecting parks, bridges, the Millennium Carillon, and dozens of restaurants and shops. Free, open year-round, and an easy 5-minute drive from Devonshire.

Naper Settlement
Chicagoland’s outdoor history museum, just steps from downtown — historic buildings and hands-on exhibits for all ages.
Millennium Carillon
The 160-foot bell tower atop Rotary Hill overlooking the Riverwalk, with a summer recital series.
DuPage Children’s Museum
150+ hands-on exhibits across three stories — a Naperville favorite for younger kids.
Centennial Beach
A former quarry turned sand-bottom swimming beach, run by the Naperville Park District every summer.
Dining & Shopping
Downtown Naperville has one of the region’s best small-city dining and shopping scenes, right along the Riverwalk.
Getting Around
The Naperville Metra station (BNSF Line) puts downtown Chicago about an hour away, with the platform a short walk from the Riverwalk.
