About
Formerly known as Poplar Creek Country Club, the club was transformed into the Bridges of Poplar Creek Country Club in 2011. Besides just the name change, the design itself was dramatically reinvented. Fifteen holes were completely redesigned but the golf course's most memorable holes were left untouched. Bunkers and fairways were reconfigured and fescue was planted to provide more depth and definition. To make the course even more challenging, new lakes were also added. The golf course is definitely a shot maker's layout that rewards accuracy and thoughtful strategizing. The final three holes are considered by many locals to be the toughest finishing trio in all of Illinois. It begins with an uphill par 4, followed by the longest par-3 and par-4 holes respectively. The Bridges of Poplar Creek C.C. offers a round that will challenge even the most avid golfers.

Course in Great Shape
With all of the rain lately, the course is in great shape.
Nice course for the money!
Course was in good shape considering all the recent rain.
Played in 4 hours- No waiting!
After round drinks were good but the bartender was s l o w.
I’ll be back!
Great condition
The course is heavily used. The conditions were great. Greens were true & fast!! Pace was excellent as it should be during the week. Will definitely be back!!
Nice Course, good value
Nice course with nice facilities. Layout is too tough but greens are difficult with slope, fun round in general. Not too penalizing for errant shots. I will play again.
Tough course
One of the nicest courses you can play in the area. Challenging!
great condition
played in under 4 hours, course was in excellent condition 👍🏻
Pleasantly Surprised
The last time I played this course it was called "Moon Lake" and I referred to it as a goat ranch, prone to retaining water.
This time ? great layout. Greens ran true. Fairways are wider than they look.
Bunkers are still old style area thin crust.
Overall nice shape - especially after a 4 hour rain.
Hidden Gem
Tough. Narrow. But greens in excellent condition. Great value in today's marketplace. Friendly clubhouse
Slow
Slow play, no range management, I ended up skip 5 holes. Waiting on every tee is NO fun
Gem in Chicago suburbs
It is in very good condition. Greens are excellent. Very well maintained. It is tough with a lot of water holes. Friendly staff . I will play it again Monday and would highly recommend it.
Beautiful course, a lot of water but easy to avoid. Great conditions even after a big rain storm. And best part is the bar at the end. Great drinks and food.
