Travel
Sycamore, IL
Sycamore is a cute little town, about 1 hour west of O'Hare International Airport. We recommend flying into O'Hare, but you can't go wrong with Midway, either.
Airport
We recommend flying into and out of O'Hare, as it's the closest airport. This is where rental car discounts are also available. O'Hare carries all major airlines, and United and American have the most flight options.
Midway is the other airport in Chicago, but we don't have rental car discounts there. Midway also has many major airlines, and typically more options for Delta or Southwest.
