Carillon in Plainfield is the original and largest of the seven communities in the Chicago metro that carry the Carillon name. With 2,097 homes, it is a fully built-out gated 55+ community in fast-growing Plainfield, approximately 35 miles southwest of downtown Chicago in Will County.
The community centers on an 18-hole golf course and a substantial clubhouse complex. Unlike Sun City Huntley's HOA-owned golf model, Carillon's golf operations should be independently verified — confirm whether the course is HOA-owned or operated by a third party, and what member pricing looks like for residents.
Carillon Name Confusion: There are seven different communities named Carillon across the Chicago metro. They share a name but have completely separate ownership, HOAs, builders, and pricing. See the full Carillon brand comparison before narrowing your search.
