Cantigny Golf in Wheaton offers 27 holes of championship golf. It is also a great place for juniors with an academy and nine-hole youth links course. The holes are divided into the Lakeside, Hillside, and Woodside nines, names that connote the characteristics of the beautiful landscape. There are two meandering creeks as well as 12 lakes interspersed throughout the golf courses. The nines are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The Lakeside/Hillside Course, as the name would imply, takes advantage of the many lakes and elevation changes. Mature hardwood trees frame the holes and more than 100,000 flowers provide a colorful accent. In addition to water hazards, there are also strategically placed bunkers along the greensides. All of the golf courses are enjoyable challenging without being overly difficult.

Best greens this year 5/10/2022!

As always, Cantigny is a fantastic time and is maintained immaculately. One thing I noted today- The greens were AWESOME. Despite a lot of rain they were hard and rolling fast (like 12) and true, A+

One of the worst courses in chicagoland area

Fairways are same length as the rough at most courses. If you are going to spend 100+ go play dubs.

Great layout and the course was in very good shape. The Lakeside greens must have very recently been punched as it was very bumpy. It was an enjoyable experience

Waste of money. Course is in terrible condition.

This was a round that I was looking forward to. Beautiful October afternoon. Thought the 115.00 price was high for an afternoon in October but that is demand pricing in the golf industry these days. This course however is in absolutely terrible if not unplayable shops The aeration is dramatic. Especially on Woodside. We never really

putted out because there is actually more sand than grass in the manner that they aerated this nine. Stay away from this course. They will continue to COVID price you until you holld them accountable. There is no course in this area that is in this poor condition.

Please don’t follow up with a canned response about being sorry that you didn’t enjoy the experience. You know how bad it is.

Cloudy cool day.

Very nice course. Pretty wet and didn't get much roll on the ball especially near the greens. The foursome in front very slow it took 4 hours and forty five minutes. Still beautiful course and would play again.

Worth it!

First time playing here and it was outstanding. Course was in great condition, pace of play was very fast (4:05), friendly staff, frequent visits from the cart girls and a challenging but fun round (Woodside and Lakeside). 100% will be back.
