North Chicago is home to Naval Station Great Lakes, and families traveling for graduations and visits often need one vehicle for the whole group. Chicago Van Rentals rents 7 to 15-passenger vans for these trips, with O'Hare pickup for families flying in.
Everything your group needs, arranged before you arrive.
Our closest lot to North Chicago is Melrose Park, reached via I-294 and I-94.

North Chicago is home to Naval Station Great Lakes, the Navy’s only boot camp for enlisted sailors, so families often travel in together to see a recruit graduate (see our Great Lakes boot camp graduation travel guide). Students at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, North Chicago High School teams and church groups need room for everyone too. A 12 or 15 passenger Mercedes-Benz Sprinter or Ford Transit also suits day trips to Foss Park Beach, Waukegan’s lakefront or Illinois Beach State Park.
Our Melrose Park office at 3217 W Lake St is about 35 miles south. From North Chicago, take Buckley Road (IL-137) west to the Tri-State Tollway, follow I-94 and then I-294 south, and exit at Mannheim Road for Lake Street. Relatives flying in for a graduation? We can deliver the van to the O’Hare or Midway terminals so your group drives straight up to Great Lakes.
North Chicago sits on Lake Michigan just south of Waukegan, so a group can pair Waukegan’s free lakefront beach with Illinois Beach State Park in Zion in one van day.
Group tip: Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans are about 10.5 ft tall, so park in open-air lots, not parking garages.
North of North Chicago, Illinois Beach State Park stretches along about 6.5 miles of Lake Michigan shoreline in Zion and Winthrop Harbor. Its 4,160 acres hold the state’s only remaining beach ridge shoreline, with dunes, marshes and black oak forest, and its southern unit became Illinois’s first nature preserve in 1964. The south unit has the visitor center, picnic areas and the main beaches, and there are no lifeguards. Day-use entry is free. For families in town for a Great Lakes graduation weekend, it makes an easy outing, with one van for everyone, the cooler and the beach bags.
