Bolingbrook Golf Club


About this course
Bolingbrook Golf Club in the Chicago suburbs distinguishes itself as a sprawling, ambitious public facility that feels decidedly upscale. The Arthur Hills design, opened in 2002, embraces a modern aesthetic characterized by generous fairways and boldly contoured greens. The course plays deceptively challenging due to strategically placed water hazards that penalize wayward shots, and greens that reward precise iron play. While not overly long, the course’s strategic bunkering demands careful course management for scoring opportunities. Hills leveraged the flat Illinois landscape to create visual drama through sculpted mounding and extensive water features. The multiple tee options allow golfers of all skill levels to enjoy the course, making it a popular destination for both casual rounds and competitive outings. The club's robust junior program and active league play cultivates a strong sense of community, while the expansive clubhouse and event spaces cater to a variety of social gatherings. Bolingbrook Golf Club stands as a testament to accessible, well-maintained public golf. While it may not host major professional tournaments, it serves as a highly regarded and heavily utilized venue for local amateur events and charity outings, solidifying its place as a core component of the Bolingbrook community. A popular post-round tradition at the club is enjoying a local craft beer and the signature Italian beef sandwich at the club's spacious patio overlooking the finishing hole.

Getting there
Bolingbrook Golf Club lies just thirty miles southwest of downtown Chicago, making it an easy forty-minute drive from O'Hare International Airport (ORD) via I-55 South. The route traces the suburban sprawl of the western Chicago metro before easing into the quieter residential expanse of Will County, where the course sits tucked within the planned community landscape of Bolingbrook. The arrival is understated and accessible - a daily-fee facility that serves as a local anchor rather than a secluded retreat, welcoming golfers with the straightforward charm of a well-maintained municipal track in the heart of Illinois's suburban corridor.
