Dont bother, the pictures online look good and then you get there. Needs renovating. Their idea of outdoor swimming pool is building glass walls around a pool that was meant for outside by the campground. Basketball courts bad shape. Horseback riding cmon its a little corral with horses and I have no idea where you would ride at. And the... more

My family and I have been going to Silver Leaf's Fox River Resort in Sheridan, IL for five years, and unfortunately, now the resort seems shabbier and more neglected than ever. We arrived on a Friday evening, only to be greeted at the Welcome Center by an unfriendly, dirty, and unprofessional staff, who acted, as other reviewers have noted, as... more

This resort is in serious need of renovation. The newer units are fine, but the older units are in dire need of updating the worn out furniture, carpet, etc. It's time to get rid of the rustic look and come up with something more contemporary. The reception/checkin is run by young unpolished adults that have not been taught how to... more

I've actually been to this resort on 5 occasions. I go back because it is close to home yet remote, which is desireable for my purposes, and because there aren't many timeshares in IL at which I can exchange my time. Even though I go back, I dread the stale cigarette smell that has permeated most of the rooms. The... more

Silverleaf at Fox River is a nice enough place. I was shocked that some of the other reviewers had so many problems, especially with cleanliness. That was not our experience at all. We stayed in a lodge unit (218 in bldg 2) which is a two bedroom condo. It was extremely clean. The master bedroom has a king bed, jacuzzi... more

If this location weren't pet-friendly, my review of this resort would be less favorable. I have stayed at this location twice and each time, I had to spend over an hour cleaning the kitchen before I could use it. I don’t plan to spend the first hour of my vacation sanitizing. The first visit, the entire resort was infested with... more

I booked this through an timeshare exchange week, which are usually very impressive. The "resort" was a 1 hour 20 min drive from downtown Chicago. The staff seemed to have the attitude as if you were a bother to them. The room was large in size but the furniture was very worn down. The nearest store/restaurant was 12 miles away.... more

Silverleaf Fox River Resort, Sheridan IL Resort - UGH! Where to start! I will tell you the positives first. If you like outdoor activities, such as 5 hole golf, miniature golf, fishing, hiking, fast food - thats it. Now here is what we found: A condo unit in the middle of no where, closest restaurant is 12 miles to a... more
