Olympia Fields
Olympia Fields Country Club, located just south of Chicago, is home to two championship layouts, the North and South courses. As a private club, the courses are generally playable only by members and their invited guests.
The North, formerly the club's No.4 course, is one of the top-rated and finest championship layouts in Illinois. This excellent tree-lined parkland course contains a wealth of wonderfully crafted, memorable and challenging holes. Definitely a course that will challenge your all-round game. The South course was formerly the club's No.1 layout, designed in 1915 by Tom Bendelow.
Olympia Fields is a private club. Guests may only play if hosted by a member.
Walking permitted. Caddies available.
