For over 15 years, stunningly beautiful Lake Forest residences—bejeweled for the holidays—have welcomed Winter Wonderwalk guests of Woodlands Academy of the Sacred Heart.

Winter Wonderwalk homes have been among the most historically and architecturally significant properties in the Lake Forest community.  Decked out in their holiday finest, these magnificent residences provide Wonderwalk guests a glimpse at elegance often reserved for another era.  Dining rooms are set for holiday feasts, and roaring fireplaces invite cozy lingering.  Knowledgeable docents in each room point out architectural details and decorative features.
