2 Greetings! G OLF ILLINOIS On behalf of the Illinois Office of Tourism, welcome to the Land of Lincoln. Illinois is home to a wide variety of stellar destinations from big city fun to small town hospitality and scenic wonders. Chief among these are our more than 300 beautiful golf courses located throughout the state. This comprehensive Golf Illinois Guide includes listings of all public and semi-private 18-hole or more courses. Whether you re an experienced player seeking truly challenging links or a beginner just looking for some great outdoor activity with friends and loved ones, there s nothing like enjoying an invigorating game of golf. For fans, Illinois hosts a variety of major tournaments, giving you the opportunity to see the best of the best first hand. In addition to the many resources you ll find in this guide, I d encourage you to check out EnjoyIllinois.com for even more up-to-date golf events and a full look at all Illinois has to offer. Thanks, Cory Jobe Director, Illinois Office of Tourism ABOUT THIS GUIDE This guide lists courses alphabetically by town. The town name has a dot placed next to it in blue, pink, orange or green. This color distinction highlights the Illinois tourism region in which the course can be found (see map on page 4). Rating, yardage, slope and par information for each course is based on the longest tee. All course fees were current at the time of printing. Please call ahead to confirm course location, availability and rates, as many courses offer varying weekly, seasonal and special pricing. Bring your golf clubs on Amtrak, with stops at 29 Illinois destinations. Space can be reserved for your golf bag by speaking with a reservation agent at USA-Rail ( ) or a ticket agent at an Amtrak station. Every step was taken to ensure the accuracy of the information provided in this guide. Great Rivers Country is not responsible for any errors or omissions.
