McHenry Shores used to be a village between where Prairie Grove is now and the City of McHenry. It merged with McHenry. It is apparently still served by a private water company.
We have a facebook group for People Against McHenry Shores Water Company:

At this point no one knows when our water will be restored. It is now a health hazard living without water.
This is 2011 and we still have no way of providing water to the residents in McHenry Shores…
This is totally unacceptable.
They keep telling us to boil our water,,,what water??
We have NONE!
ANd YES I have called the water company to no avail.
