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.

Great value - great condition
I played twilight starting at 3 PM. Finished by 6:30 PM. Course moved fast and was in great condition. Would definitely play again. Fun course with all the elements water, sand, trees. Not boring at all.

Windy and wet
The course has a lot of water (and sand traps), which are challenging enough but add to that a 15-20 mph wind and the day had its frustrating moments. Enjoyed the day anyway but did lose 4 balls on the round due to water. I will play again.
