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.

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.
Stingy
Course has millions for a renovation but won’t give a 9 hole rain check
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.
Fast Fast Fast
Play here regularly and course was in excellent shape. The greens were almost too fast hard to hold even with short irons but putted true and was very windy so definately a challenge !
