Lincoln Park is a great place to visit and a step out of the norm from Michigan Avenue. I must agree though with the other ratings. It is just too crowded in the summer.
Pros: Beautiful place to visit always something to do.
Cons: Too crowded.

There are just too many yuppies and their suv's in this park...the parking is next to impossible.
Pros: Lake front, trees
Cons: Too many people!, Too many suv's!, Too many yuppies!

Lincoln Park gives Chicago the most beautiful lake front of any large city, anywhere.

Having such a beautiful park and zoo in the middle of a huge city is great. Gorgeous plants and gardens. Awesome city and lake views. The best zoo. Lots to see. Good place to picnic or just kick back and people watch. Open every day of the year. Even Xmas. (Nice to walk off a Xmas dinner and visit the animals. They're always more lively in the winter.)
Pros: inexpensive, open all year
Cons: not dog friendly

This huge park with its long bike/walking path and lake views is one of the best things about Chicago. It's like a huge backyard for thousands of city dwellers, attracting people year round for fresh air, exercise and family outings. Plant yourself on a bench in the summertime, and you've got a perfect spot for people-watching.
Pros: People-watching, Long walking trail
Cons: Crowded in summer
