Cantigny Golf - Hillside/Woodside
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.

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 !
Wonderful and Beautiful
First time here. Didn't know what to expect. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. The greens for this early in the year were super fast and challenging. I will definitely be coming back regularly to try out the other two nine holes.
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.
Perfect fall course
Beautiful course, great staff and wonderful restaurant. We were paired with two younger gentlemen who were GREAT golfers, but who also were wonderful to two 70+ seniors definitely not in their league. I know that’s not the courses choice, but was their usual course and speaks to quality of golfer who play there.
Roger Packard classic design
I may be a little biest ( I am related to the course architect ) but this is an absolute must play course in Illinois! It is always in immaculate shape and the staff is extremely helpful and friendly!
Beautiful Course
Played Woodside and Lake Side. Both courses were challenging and the layout was great. It was a beautiful course. Greens were in great condition and average pace. Overall the staff was nice facilities were great. Chipping green, bunker area and putting green. Would play there again. Shot 79 from the white tees.
