Rolling Green’s 18-hole golf course, designed by William Diddle in 1924, offers a rewarding challenge for golfers of all levels.Elevated tees offer an excellent perspective of various holes and challenge players to play to their maximum potential. The well-maintained ponds reflect the blue of the sky and function as both decorations and hazards on nine of the eighteen holes. Many holes are demanding and difficult, but the natural splendor of the surrounding makes even a poorly played hole an enjoyable experience. Rolling Green has always maintained one of the best-conditioned golf courses in the Chicago area and offers tournament conditions everyday.The Championship Golf Course hosted Western Open qualifying tournaments throughout the 70's and continues to host Illinois PGA Tournaments. With bent grass tees, fairways and greens, Rolling Green CC offers a fair but challenging test of golf on a course that is maintained to the highest standards.

Pro Tips

  • As you stand on the first tee take the time to look at the American flag flying to your left…that’ll be your first indication of the influence of the wind
  • The first hole favors a fade targeted at the right side of the bunker complex on the left.
  • Fairway middle left is the best position to hit your approach on this tight opening hole
