McHenry, IL Houses for Rent

Nestled along the Fox River in northeastern Illinois, McHenry combines small-town atmosphere with convenient living options. Located 55 miles from Chicago, this riverside community spans nearly 15 square miles and centers around its waterways. Apartments in McHenry provide access to outdoor recreation at the 48-acre Lake Defiance in Moraine Hills State Park and the Prairie Trail, which connects to the Grand Illinois Trail network. With one-bedroom apartments averaging $1,399, McHenry presents a cost-effective alternative to other Chicago suburbs.

McHenry features three downtown districts—Green Street, Riverside Drive, and Main Street—each with local shops and restaurants that contribute to the community's character. The McHenry Riverwalk offers a scenic 0.73-mile pathway along Boone Creek and the Fox River, hosting outdoor concerts and community events throughout the year. Commuters can access downtown Chicago via the Metra Union Pacific Northwest Line's terminus station, while Illinois Routes 31 and 120 connect to neighboring communities. Outdoor enthusiasts will find extensive trails and fishing spots at nearby Moraine Hills State Park and Glacial Park, where the region's natural landscapes showcase its glacial history.
