Square Links Golf Course & Practice Center sits in Frankfort, a village in Will County roughly 35 miles southwest of downtown Chicago. The course was designed by Henry Olivieri Sr., a Midwest architect whose work appears primarily across Illinois and neighboring states during the latter decades of the twentieth century. Olivieri's designs typically emphasize playability for a range of skill levels while working within the natural terrain of their sites. The Frankfort area occupies gently rolling prairie land that has transitioned from agricultural use to suburban development over recent decades. Courses in this region often feature open, wind-exposed layouts with scattered tree plantings and water features integrated into relatively flat to moderately undulating terrain. Square Links, as a facility that includes both a regulation course and practice center, serves the growing golf population of the southwest Chicago suburbs. The practice center component reflects a broader trend in American golf facility design from the 1980s onward, where dedicated short-game areas, driving ranges, and instructional spaces became standard amenities alongside traditional eighteen-hole layouts. This dual-purpose model caters to both recreational rounds and skill development, addressing the needs of a suburban golf market where convenience and accessibility often drive participation. The course provides a local option for Will County residents without the travel required to reach older, more established Chicago-area clubs.
