Cantigny Golf - Woodside/Lakeside
Rating Snapshot
About
Located in Wheaton, Cantigny Golf offers 27 holes of championship golf that plays across a beautiful landscape of rolling hills covered with hardwood trees and mature oaks. There are also 12 lakes and two wandering creeks that come into play throughout all of the golf courses. The holes are divided into three nines appropriately named the Lakeside, Hillside, and Woodside. They provide three very different 18-hole combinations. The Woodside/Lakeside Course is a tight course that plays through trees. The many water hazards also demand accuracy. There are interesting elevation changes as well as numerous strategically placed bunkers. All of the Cantigny golf courses are challenging yet playable, making it a great place for tournaments. In the past it has hosted the Illinois Amateur Championship and several USGA qualifiers.

Top 5 IL public course
Easily a top 5 public IL course. You could make an argument it’s the best, but you can’t argue it’s outside the top 5.
The grounds are magnificent, the practice area is amazing, the course is too fun! It’s
Ranger was obnoxious,
We were told to speed up 3 times when the cart said we were within 3 minutes of our split time. When we got to the turn he told us we need to speed through the bathroom and we didn’t have time to get a refreshment. Never saw him again after that and we waited on every hole in the back nine. Ruined the course experience for us.
Beautiful course, a little pricey but worth it.. I did not review the off course amenities because I was only there to squeeze in 9
Public course that plays like a country club
Amazing course, great amenities, great practice facility, even the availability of caddies, make this as close to a country club is you’re going to get. However, the food was mediocre and the drinks were very small. For golf experience you can’t beat it.
Exceptional experience even in the rain
One of the best courses in the state of IL. Love love the layout, staff, conditions and challenging holes. Consider my home course. Don’t miss the chance to play this gem
Top 10 IL public course
This is in the top half of IL top 10 public courses. For the price it’s not spectacular and unforgettable. But Chicago isn’t cheap so the price is justified.
The course is immaculate at all times, the grounds are great, practice facilities are the absolute best in the west burbs and the layout is pretty fun.
Great layout and the course was in very good shape. The Lakeside greens must have very recently been punched as it was very bumpy. It was an enjoyable experience
