Atkins Golf Club at the University of Illinois

Atkins Golf Club at the University of Illinois is an 18-hole public golf course located in Urbana, Illinois, less than three miles from campus. Originally developed as Stone Creek Golf Club in 1999 by architects Dick and Tim Nugent, the course was gifted to the university by the Atkins family in 2020 as part of a $15 million donation of over 300 acres.

The Par-71 course underwent comprehensive renovations that rebuilt all greens, repositioned and rebuilt bunkers using the Better Billy Bunker system, and extended length to over 7,500 yards. These enhancements, completed under architect Drew Rogers' direction, transformed it into a championship-caliber venue suitable for players of all skill levels. The course provides a challenging test while remaining accessible to recreational golfers.

Atkins Golf Club serves as the home facility for the University of Illinois men's and women's golf teams. The property includes Oskee's Sports Pub, a Fighting Illini-themed restaurant with banquet and event facilities. Daily operations are managed by Troon, a golf course management company. The facility will host one of six NCAA Men's Golf Regional Championships in May 2025.
