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.

One of the Best!

Thoroughly enjoyed the golf experience at Cantigny. With the current renovations going on over the next 3 years, it may be tough to get a tee time. Don’t turn down a chance to play if offered one.

Wonderful layout.

One of the best public courses around. Great layout. Driving accuracy very important to avoid being pinned by large oak trees. Extensive reconstruction going on at present on third nine holes. Greens were aerated, a bit early I thought.

We'll kept

Fairways for the most part are well kept. Golfers should remember to replace divots or use the sand seed on the cart. Even the tees had a few to many divots, on par 3's.

Greens were a bit tricky, with the grain quite fast, against quite slow.

One of the best pub courses in the area

Love it. Close to country club feel - quality, not crowded, intimate and very well kept. Its not cheap so I dont play here as often as I'd like but every time I do it feels worth it.

Nearly Perfect Day at Cantigny

Early May. weather perfect. The restaurant had excellent service and good food. A father-son outing to remember.

We played with a man named Randy. An excellent golfer. I think he missed two greens in regulation all day. We were a little intimidated at first we were both having a serious case of performance anxiety but he took it in stride and we finally settled down and started hitting some shots. We played at 3.5 hour pace all the way around on a Saturday! The last three holes were slow but we still finished in four hours and had a ball. The only flaw was the handicap cart thing didn’t work and a 79 year old man with neuropathy had a really hard time during and after the round.
