About The Quarry

The Quarry sits along the North Lake shoreline within Crystal Lake's Three Oaks Recreation Area, with a history spanning over 60 years. Once a working gravel mine, the land was gradually reclaimed by fresh groundwater, transforming it into two deep, crystal-clear lakes surrounded by pristine waters, thriving wildlife, and stunning scenery. What was once an industrial site has become one of the region's most unique outdoor playgrounds.

Today, guests can experience it all — from our brand-new Union Tech aqua park and 32-acre cable system on the lake to summer camps and unforgettable aqua birthday parties. On land, there's just as much to enjoy, including our bar, grille, snack shop, beach area, baggo, volleyball, and a variety of games for all ages.

The Quarry also comes alive with premium band nights and free live music every weekend, creating the perfect atmosphere to relax and unwind. Looking to celebrate something special? Our one-of-a-kind event spaces offer three indoor and three outdoor options, making it easy to host the perfect private event.
