HomeServicesResidential Boundary Surveys › Riverwoods, IL

Riverwoods is a Lake County village of roughly 3,790 residents in Vernon and West Deerfield townships, in the southern part of the county along the Des Plaines River. Known for heavily wooded, large residential lots preserved as a forested setting, it has an estate-scale land pattern near the river. A plat of survey is especially valuable here for confirming boundaries and floodplain relationships.

What a plat of survey shows

A plat of survey is a drawing, signed and sealed by a licensed Illinois land surveyor, that locates the corners and boundary lines of your lot and depicts the buildings, driveways, fences and recorded easements on the property. It is the document lenders, title companies and municipal permit desks rely on.

Riverwoods & Lake County specifics

Riverwoods is home to about 3,790 people and spans Vernon and West Deerfield townships in southern Lake County. Its plats and deeds are recorded with the Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office in Waukegan, the county seat to the north. The Des Plaines River flows through the Riverwoods area, so a meaningful share of parcels sit within or near FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas that a plat of survey helps make clear. Because Riverwoods is built around large, wooded lots near the river, a current survey is often essential to confirm boundaries, easements and setbacks before improvements or a sale.
