Settler's Hill Golf Course
About
Settler's Hill Golf Course sprawls across a diverse landscape that ranges from windswept highlands to mature woodlands. The course actually sits on the site of a former landfill but you would never be able to tell with its rolling topography that has become its signature characteristic. When playing, you'll be transported from the Scottish highlands to the forests of northern Michigan without even having to leave Chicagoland. Links-style and parkland holes are interspersed with water to create a test of your skills you won't soon forget. The greens have their interesting quirks and they are framed with deep bunkers and the rolling fairways demand accuracy. Besides the challenging round and affordable rates, Settler's Hill Golf Course's west-central location in Batavia near the Fox River also makes it a popular choice for meeting friends for a round.

Great layout, but poor conditions
I love the layout of the course and the different types of holes throughout, but honestly, the course still hasn't recovered from the construction work that was done in the Spring. There are still workers scattered about, dead patches of fairway, a temp tee with no mention of new distances to hazards. I hate to give it a bad rap, but it should have remained closed for the season to recover properly.
