WESTLAKE COUNTRY CLUB
🇺🇸 Jerseyville, IL, USA
Designed by Brent Wadsworth, Larry Packard
Westlake Country Club sits in Jerseyville, a small city in southwestern Illinois roughly forty miles north of St. Louis. The course was designed by Larry Packard and Brent Wadsworth, architects who worked together on several Midwestern layouts during the late twentieth century. Packard, based in Illinois, developed a regional practice focused on accessible daily-fee and semi-private courses, while Wadsworth contributed to numerous projects across the central United States during the same period.
The routing takes advantage of the gently rolling terrain characteristic of this part of the Illinois River valley region. Water features appear throughout the design, with ponds and wetland areas influencing play on multiple holes. Tree-lined fairways and modest elevation changes provide variety without severe difficulty, making the course approachable for a range of skill levels while still requiring thoughtful course management.
Westlake serves as a semi-private facility, welcoming both members and daily-fee players. The club functions as a recreational and social hub for the Jerseyville community, offering traditional country club amenities in a less formal setting than many metropolitan clubs. Its location in a smaller Illinois town gives it a regional character, drawing golfers from the surrounding counties and providing a local venue for league play and casual rounds.
