Although more than a dozen public and private golf courses can be found in and around Peoria, Illinois three tracks in particular stand out: WeaverRidge, Lick Creek, and Metamora Fields. Kiel Christianson has more.
If you plopped Lick Creek Golf Course into a major metropolitan area, it could be a hoity-toity private club. But be grateful that it is not, because the muni atmosphere only adds to the fun of this course located in Pekin, just outside Peoria.
