About

Wolf Hollow Golf Club originally opened in 1928 as Lena Golf Club. The course tumbles across northwest Illinois' gently rolling hills, incorporating quite a few elevation changes into the layout. The golf course has a true risk-reward design that will thoroughly test your shot-making abilities. With proper course management and a bit of luck, there are several birdie opportunities to be had. Measuring in at just over 6,400 yards from the back tees, the course manages to give you a few lengthy holes but it will also put your short-game skills to the test. The 16th is one of Wolf Hollow Golf Club's most intimidating holes because this par 4 has trouble everywhere. A creek and tall grasses guard the left of the fairway and the small green requires a nearly perfect approach shot.

Great time!!

Starter was attentive & friendly. There was a playday on the day we booked the round. The starter made sure we were made aware of that fact & came out to the driving range to give us an update while we were warming up.

The course was in great condition & if you enjoy each hole having its own “personality” this is your place!!

Great course spring conditions

The greens were in good shape . The course overall was very green. Fairways and first cut were trimmed very nice. Always a friendly course to visit

Great find

Traveling to Galena, Illinois my husband and I stopped along the way to try out a new golf course and what a treat!

The course is in great shape. The staff was very friendly. It’s a play again course.
