Cantigny Golf - Lakeside/Hillside
Rating Snapshot
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.

Excellent as ways
Cantigny has a beautiful clurse great layout mice staff allways fun to play
Very wet conditions following a stormy am. Course does not drain well. Pace very slow. Hard to get into any kind of rhythm.
Beautiful course
This course is top notch. Challenging and fun. And the guys that put your golf clubs into the carts are quite handsome. Eye candy ;-)
Nice Place
Played on a Sunday afternoon with some friends. The practice facilities are great. The people working at the course are really pleasant. The course conditions were great, except for a few bunkers with just dirt in the bottoms. Greens rolled nice. It's a wonderful course layout, built so that you're not seeing too many other players out there on other holes. But the pace of play was the biggest downfall. A 5:15 pace in carts is unacceptable in my opinion.
Purely magic
Magnificent golf course. Incredible property. Number one public golf course in the Chicagoland area hands down. What a gem, what a treat, what a beautiful golf course unmatched in the area. Wish prices were a bit more reasonable but worth every dime. Magical place.
All around amazing experience
Really enjoyed everything about my visit. To start, Cantigny has one of the better practice facilities around. Multiple putting and chipping greens, large range with grass to hit off of and several indoor bays as well. We played Lakeside and Woodside. Course layout and scenery was great. Good mix of distances so I used most of my clubs, dog legs both ways. Water and woods were in play most holes, so it was fairly challenging as well. Luckily, the cart GPS system shows you everything and was also a big plus. Fairways, greens, bunkers, and tee boxes were all in excellent shape. Page of play was decent for a beautiful Saturday. If i had any complaints, the greens were maybe a touch slow but that probably helped my game and sometimes the carts shut off if you got close to certain areas but that’s minor. I will definitely be back; it’s my new favorite course.
Beautiful
Truly a beautiful coarse., In incredible shape even during a drought in Illinois. 3 different 9's is also a bonus.
Father'sday
Placed spotters in a few areas where many people lose balls on their drives to keep pace of course going. Very classy
