Opened in 1926, in the "Classical ERA" of U.S. course development, St. Andrews Golf & Country Club has been recognized as the oldest family owned-operated golf course in Illinois.

St. Andrews Golf & Country Club was originally built in 1926 as a rival to the Chicago Golf Club. Since then, the club has built its own reputation and stands out for its two championship golf courses and top-ranked practice center. The St. Andrews Course is the club's original layout before the Joe Jemsek Course was added in 1929. It is also the longer of the two golf courses. The club and course draw their name from the famous Scottish club known as the "home of golf," but the course is far from being a seaside links. Instead, the mostly flat layout weaves through mature trees. The golf course offers a challenge with tight, tree-lined doglegs and large, contoured greens framed with sand bunkers. It has a memorable finish with a par 4 that features a water hazard along the entire right side of the fairway.

Horrible Pace of Play

Overall good course with a great practice area but holy moly do they have POP issues. We were the last public tee time let out in front of a collegiate golf tournament and we spent most of the afternoon waiting on a log jam of horrible pace in front of us.

The course is usually in decent shape. Punched greens were way over sanded on some holes but that’s fall golf for you.

They need to invest in Marshalls on this course and be stricter about keeping a good pace.

Greens punched

Enjoy playing here, but the greens were recently punched and it seems like they were barely rolled, if at all, making putting nearly impossible

1926 course

Typical 1926 golf course layout. Pretty much back and forth with some long par 3’s. Finishing hole is probably the best.

Good practice course.
