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.

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.

Great Condition

Have not played here in a few years. The course was in great condition compared to some of the other courses I have played this year. I will play again if I get a good deal, since I am 45 minutes away.

Challenge yourself

Played this course 10 times this. I don't understand why ball marks on green don't heal. Needs sand in traps. Club bounces off the sand.

I like the course, but.....

Nice course, nice staff, nice facility. The first cut rough was so long all 4 golfers were losing track of balls a foot or two off the fairway. Cut it an inch lower at least. Also: LOVE the decked out electric carts!
