Bull Valley at Bull Valley Golf Club

Bull Valley, set amidst the rolling farmlands of Woodstock, Illinois, evokes a unique blend of Midwestern charm and championship aspirations. Built in the late 1960s, the course presents a challenging parkland layout characterized by mature trees, strategically placed water hazards, and subtly undulating greens.

Designed by Dick Nugent, Bull Valley tests golfers with its length and demands strategic shot-making. The course unfolds across generous fairways, but rewards accuracy with tightly guarded greens and subtle doglegs that favor thoughtful approaches rather than brute force. Although not a frequent stop for professional tournaments, Bull Valley is known within the region as a stern test of golf.

Beyond the course, Bull Valley fosters a strong sense of community. The club is known for its relaxed atmosphere and a membership that values camaraderie and a shared love for the game, along with its popular men's locker room grill that serves the famed "Bull Burger" on toasted brioche, a long-time favorite with the members.
