Cantigny Golf - Woodside/Lakeside

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.

Beautiful Golf Experience
Incredible course, amenities, and atmosphere. The three different themes of the 9 holes courses play well and are all scenic. Course was a little dry but that is true of any course in the area recently. Definitely would love to play here again and again
Heavyweight Golf Champion
Beautiful course as always. Great condition. Also, I demolished Dr. SausageTits to become the World Heavyweight Golf Champion. Wow!
Cantigny #1 in my book for many reasons
Bought through Golf Now a foursome, but it was raining and cold so two of our four cancelled...still waiting to hear back from Golf Now about our credits.
My son and I played, the weather had scared most folks away so it was wide open and FUN! Played from the blues which is long for me but short for my son, who had to change from driver to other shorter clubs on many tees, despite the lack of roll from rain. He has played the yellow tips previously.
The greens were perfect and rolling true. Players here seem to pay attention and repair their divots, atypical for most public courses so #KeepItUp ! Our match ended even so the post match cocktail was extra tasty in the Cantigny bunker where we watched some pro golf on tv.
Go try Cantigny, a privately owned club, open to the public, which supports veterans with discounted fees thanks to the family of Colonel McCormick. Why is the government in the golf and restaurant business anyways?
Great condition
Crazy well kept for how early in the season it is.
