About this course

Tamarack Country Club, nestled in the O'Fallon, Illinois area, is a testament to Midwestern golf, offering a meticulously maintained parkland experience that prioritizes playability over penal rough. The relatively flat terrain, carved from former farmland, presents a course where angles and thoughtful club selection are rewarded more than brute force, favoring strategic play over outright power. While not steeped in championship lore, Tamarack offers a solid test for golfers of all skill levels. Gentle doglegs and subtly contoured greens characterize the layout. Water hazards come into play on several holes, demanding careful consideration from the tee. Local lore suggests that the relatively young course, established in the late 20th century, quickly became a popular gathering spot for the area's business community, solidifying a reputation as a congenial club that values social interaction alongside golfing pursuits. The club's welcoming atmosphere extends beyond the course, with a vibrant social calendar and a reputation for member-driven events. This convivial spirit, coupled with a well-maintained course, makes Tamarack a respected and enjoyable golf destination in the Metro East area.

Getting there

The journey to Tamarack Country Club begins at St. Louis Lambert International Airport (STL), just across the Mississippi River and roughly thirty minutes northwest by car. From the terminal, the route traces Interstate 64 eastward into Illinois, slipping past the industrial outskirts of the metro area before easing into the quieter, gently rolling farmland that defines the outer reaches of O'Fallon. The final turn off the highway leads through suburban streets that quickly give way to the club's wooded entrance, where the hum of the city fades and the first glimpses of manicured fairways signal arrival at one of the region's most established private retreats.
