Cantigny Golf - Hillside/Woodside
Rating Snapshot
About
Cantigny Golf boasts 27 holes of scenic and challenging golf. The holes are divided into three nines that are named after the features of the landscape: Lakeside, Hillside, and Woodside. The nines are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The Hillside/Woodside course features plenty of elevation changes as well as an abundance of hardwoods, mature oaks, and ash trees. More than 100,000 flowers provide a colorful accent to the golf course. Strategically placed bunkers border the undulating greens and there are also a few water hazards coming into play. All three courses provide a challenging round but they are playable for a range of skill levels. It is an excellent place for tournaments. In the past it has been host to the US Amateur Public Links and numerous USGA qualifiers. It is also a good place for juniors with a golf academy and a nine-hole youth links golf course.

Outstanding Course
Well worth it. Played Hillside and woodside. Woodside very challenging and longer. Hillside more friendly. Both were in excellent condition. Greens are quite fast but should slow down this summer. A rating.
Great course and friendly staff
Had a great time playing this very challenging course. Staff was friendly and course was easy to navigate. Highly recommended
Dukeblue777 - thank you!
Top Notch
Easily one of the state's best public courses. Manicured and pristine. Greens ran 10 and nothing flat. Bring your 'A' game if you can. Friendly staff.
Always a challenge to play.
Previous rounds always started the Lakeside course and the Hillside for the back 9. Today we started at the Woodside course which I have not played previously. Played with my son who’s playing Cantigny for the first time. Some surprises but it’s always fun when you are challenged to play your best. Enjoyed the round as usual and looking forward for the next one.
Great Course!!
Course was in pristine condition. The greens and overall course was well kept. Course is not too long but still challenging and fun. Can’t wait to come back and play here’s again.
I totally agree! Cantigny is a must play, OFTEN!
Wow!
My first time playing this course and was it worth the wait. I think they had their club championship before my round. If that wasn’t the case, the pin placements were in places that would make you think the superintendent was angry off or something. LOL The greens were hard and rolled beautifully. I would have to say it’s one of the best greens I’ve played on.
Great course but poor pace of play
Cantigny is one of the premier courses in the Chicago area and I was excited to play. The starter, Lynn, was very friendly. Unfortunately, a 4 hour 45 round took much away from the round and the golf experience. Waiting on every shot and waiting at each tee box disrupted the round. Never saw a ranger.
Beautiful course - pace of play - terrible
The course was beautiful And in fantastic condition, and the staff super friendly. It took us nearly 3 hrs for 9 holes - lots of standing around and waiting. We gave up playing after the 14th because it was getting dark and the mosquitos were starting to eat us ! . The staff did say they had held an event in the morning and that slowed things up. They didn’t want to hurry the event because they had paid a lot of money and they want them to come back next year. We got a good price for the golf off GolfNow so weren’t too upset about it - but if we had paid full price, we wouldn’t have been very happy. On a good note we would love to play this course again and maybe choose an earlier time of day if possible.
