This course features rolling terrain, a meandering creek, plus tree-lined fairways that afford generous landing areas. Founded in 1892, this club was listed by the USGA as one of the first 100 clubs established in the U.S. and the original site of the Chicago Golf Club. In addition, "GOLF Magazine" recognized it in their 1995 list of "The First 100 Clubs in America." Tee times are only reserved for weekends and holidays. David Gill redesigned three holes in 1976, and it was redesigned again by Steven Halberg in 1992 for its centennial celebration.

A true classic, Apr 24, 2005
reviewer: Mike Smith from Illinois
This 9 hole course does play EXTREMELY slow. If you want to play and enjoy yourself, try to find a time when it isn't busy. That being said, it really does feel like a course that was built in the 1800s. For most golfers, this might be the only time in their lives that they play a course built in the 1800s. I absolutely recommend playing here. The holes are quite different than holes are nowadays, and if you really take the time to appreciate the course (and aren't frustrated by the slow play) , you'll realize you're playing a classic.

As far as 9-hole tracks go..., Jun 14, 2004
reviewer: Greg Domaszewicz from Pekin, IL
...this one's tough to beat. Beautiful scenery and alot of history. The three first holes, all medium to long par 4's, pose a good starting challenge, followed by a couple shorter par 4's. The last hole provides an opportunity to pick up a stroke if you have a long straight drive in your bag and can make it to the top of the hill.
