The Glencoe Golf Club, a member of the Audubon Sanctuary Program, is surrounded by the beauty of nature. The course features tree lined fairways, native prairie grass corridors and several ponds located throughout the property.  A great escape from the sights and sounds of the city, located only 20 minutes north of Chicago.

Capital Projects

In our continued effort to remain one of the finest public golf courses on the North Shore, the Glencoe Golf Club has started and will continue to create projects that help improve the beauty of the course and its playability.

 

Pond Project - completed fall 2009

The Glencoe Golf Club is pleased to announce that the pond extension project has been completed.
The pond between the 15th and 16th holes has been extended to include the area behind the 11th and 16th greens.

The benefits of the project are:

  • An increase in water retention which will assist us in our water conservation efforts by providing rainwater for irrigation.
  • Reduced  flooding on the golf course due to the increase in retention capacity.
  • Minimize pond level fluctuation during heavy rain events, thus reducing pond bank erosion.
  • Create additional habitat for aquatic life.
  • Eliminate an existing low area that is prone to flooding.
  • Increases the level of difficulty on holes #11 and #16.
