Cantigny Golf - Lakeside/Hillside

About
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.

Beautiful Golf Experience
Incredible course, amenities, and atmosphere. The three different themes of the 9 holes courses play well and are all scenic. Course was a little dry but that is true of any course in the area recently. Definitely would love to play here again and again
Heavyweight Golf Champion
Beautiful course as always. Great condition. Also, I demolished Dr. SausageTits to become the World Heavyweight Golf Champion. Wow!
Cantigny #1 in my book for many reasons
Bought through Golf Now a foursome, but it was raining and cold so two of our four cancelled...still waiting to hear back from Golf Now about our credits.
My son and I played, the weather had scared most folks away so it was wide open and FUN! Played from the blues which is long for me but short for my son, who had to change from driver to other shorter clubs on many tees, despite the lack of roll from rain. He has played the yellow tips previously.
The greens were perfect and rolling true. Players here seem to pay attention and repair their divots, atypical for most public courses so #KeepItUp ! Our match ended even so the post match cocktail was extra tasty in the Cantigny bunker where we watched some pro golf on tv.
Go try Cantigny, a privately owned club, open to the public, which supports veterans with discounted fees thanks to the family of Colonel McCormick. Why is the government in the golf and restaurant business anyways?
Great condition
Crazy well kept for how early in the season it is.
