A little about St. Charles …

An hour west of Chicago, St. Charles is located between I-90 and 88 and 15 miles west of 355.

As the Fox River winds its way through our community, St. Charles’ east and west banks offer striking architecture, excellent dining, and several shopping districts.

We are located on the western end of the Main Street Bridge which offers spectacular views of charming paddlewheel boats filled with visitors enjoying our beautiful valley.  Join us on the paddlewheel for our annual fall “Knitting Cruisette”.

Our “antiquing” reputation comes from the monthly Kane County Flea Market and antique stores that dot our downtown.

Theater lovers are delighted by award-winning performances of Noble Fool Theatricals, Zanies Comedy Club and Main Street’s Steel Beam Theatre (our neighbors on 1st Street), and the Arcada Theater.
