Mayslake Peabody Estate is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and a venue for public programming, so we take pride in protecting this one-of-a-kind property and serving our visitors. We are honored by your interest in hosting an event at Mayslake Peabody Estate, and look forward to helping you understand how you may join in our stewardship of this local and national treasure.
Mayslake Hall and Event Hall
Mayslake Hall will close for exterior renovations May 31. 2022 through June 1, 2023, and will not be available for private rentals. If you'd like to host an event at the hall after that time, call 630-206-9569 to discuss your plans.
Mayslake Hall's interior can be booked for film, television or commercial photo shoots, pending availability. Contact our public program coordinator at 630-206-9569 or sbrookes@dupageforest.org.
To purchase a photography permit for external film, television and commercial purposes, call Visitor Services at 630-933-7248 Monday – Friday 8 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
Portiuncula Chapel
The chapel is used year-round for intimate ceremonies.
Corporate Events
Mayslake's grounds are a great location for your company picnic for up to 120 people on a weekday.
Mayslake Hall Tours
Please inquire about the option to add a private tour of the historic mansion for your guests at $5 per person.
Commemorative Bricks
You may purchase a commemorative brick to be placed in the walkway to the Portiuncula Chapel. A brick makes a permanent memento of a special date, event person or group. Many couples purchase a brick as a remembrance of their wedding day and incorporate its placement into their wedding ceremony. All revenues from this program benefit the restoration of Mayslake Hall.
Keepsakes
We offer a beautiful commemorative keepsake of the Portiuncula Chapel or Mayslake Hall that makes a great gift for your family, friends and guests.
