About this course

Rolling Hills at Silver Lake Country Club is located in Orland Park, a southwestern suburb of Chicago. The course was designed by Charles Maddox and Frank P. MacDonald, architects who worked in the Midwest during the early-to-mid twentieth century. The routing takes advantage of the gently rolling terrain characteristic of this part of the Chicago metropolitan area, where modest elevation changes and mature tree corridors define the playing corridors. The layout reflects the design principles common to courses built in this region during the period, with tree-lined fairways, small to moderately sized greens, and strategic bunkering that rewards accurate approach play. The property's natural contours provide enough movement to create variety in lies and shot requirements without demanding excessive length or extreme shot-making. Water features appear on several holes, typical of courses developed in areas with natural drainage patterns and wetland characteristics. Silver Lake Country Club serves as a traditional private club for the Orland Park community. The course provides a familiar test for members who value consistency and playability over dramatic design features. Conditioning and maintenance standards reflect the club's commitment to year-round member play within the constraints of the Chicago-area climate, where the golf season typically runs from April through October.

Getting there

The journey to Silver Lake Country Club begins at Chicago's O'Hare International (ORD) or Midway International (MDW), both roughly thirty to forty minutes north of the club's Orland Park location, depending on traffic patterns across the greater metropolitan area. For those arriving by private aircraft, Chicago Executive Airport (PWK) in nearby Wheeling offers a considerably more discreet alternative, positioning you just twenty minutes from the club's gates. The drive south from any of these hubs traces a gentle descent through Chicago's suburban landscape, transitioning from urban corridors into the quieter, tree-lined roads of the south suburbs before arriving at Silver Lake Country Club's serene grounds, where the manicured fairways and tranquil water features signal your arrival at one of the region's most distinguished private clubs.
