WEDGEWOOD GOLF COURSE
🇺🇸 Plainfield, IL, USA
Designed by Larry Packard




Wedgewood Golf Course in Plainfield, Illinois, is a public facility designed by Larry Packard, a prolific architect who shaped numerous courses across the Midwest during the latter decades of the twentieth century. Packard's work typically emphasized playability for a wide range of golfers while incorporating the natural terrain features available on each site. The course serves the southwestern suburban Chicago market, an area that experienced significant residential and recreational development during the 1990s and 2000s.
The layout occupies rolling terrain characteristic of the glacially influenced landscape west of Chicago, where gentle elevation changes and mature tree corridors often define playing corridors and strategic decisions. Packard's designs generally feature multiple tee boxes to accommodate different skill levels, with water hazards and bunkering positioned to reward accurate shot-making without creating excessive difficulty for recreational players. The property likely includes a mix of open and tree-lined holes, with the routing taking advantage of natural drainage patterns and existing vegetation.
As a daily-fee facility, Wedgewood serves local golfers and visitors seeking accessible golf in the Plainfield area. The course operates within the competitive public golf market of the Chicago suburbs, where numerous municipal and privately owned public courses offer varied experiences. Facilities typically include practice areas and a clubhouse with basic food and beverage service, catering to both individual players and organized group outings common to the region's public golf culture.
