Vernon Hills Golf Course

Vernon Hills Golf Course is a nine-hole course located in Vernon Hills, Illinois, that has been recognized as one of the top ten best nine-hole courses in the Chicagoland area. The layout features narrow fairways and small greens, presenting a challenging test for golfers of all skill levels. The terrain is rolling, with a creek that meanders through the property and comes into play on seven holes, adding strategic difficulty. The course was redesigned by well-known architect Dick Nugent, with a brand new clubhouse opening in 1996. This renovation enhanced the facility while maintaining the course's character as a compact but demanding nine-hole layout suitable for players seeking an engaging round without the length of an 18-hole course.
