COURSES
Arrow Head Golf Club:
Since it’s historic opening in 1927, Arrowhead Golf Club continues to offer a superb golf experience. The challenging Ken Killian design (Greg Martin redesign) is composed of three nine-hole courses that can be combined to form three separate par 72 18-hole layouts. Arrowhead treats golfers and guests as if they are members of a private club and is known to be one of the finest municipal courses in the Chicago area.
The course is meticulously manicured and surrounded by forest preserve with no houses in play. Tees, greens and fairways are bent-grass. Water comes into play on 17 of the 27 holes and 77 bunkers dot the landscape. The practice area consists of a lighted driving range, putting green, chipping green and bunkers.

Black Berry Oaks:
Best friends, Wally Boughton and Gary Blocker, worked together to create and open Blackberry Oaks Golf Course in 1993. The goal was to offer a golf experience that any player, regardless of skill level, could enjoy while spending a day with nature.
The result was an 18-hole championship design that stretches from 5,294 to over 6,400 yards, with a layout that winds through the woods, along the Blackberry Creek and water features created to test the most skilled player, while allowing new golfers to learn the game in a peaceful and beautiful setting.
Blackberry Oaks Golf Course also is a favorite among the region’s growing junior golfer population. This track allows for a set up that both teaches and challenges young players who want a true golf experience while learning the game.

The Creek :
The Creek has a terrific layout meandering through ponds, wetlands and prairie grasses. The course plays at over 6,500 from the tips, offering enough length for the long hitters, but ample risk/reward scenarios to test golfers of all abilities. The course was designed by Buzz Didier and opened in 1993, and has hosted many events for the Illinois PGA and the Chicago District Golf Association.
The links style layout is fun and sporty with wide bent grass fairways and large greens. Numerous bunkers surround the greens to keep players on their toes. Though the course winds through the lovely Nettle Creek subdivision, players definitely can enjoy the feeling of being one with nature. The superior playing conditions framed by the native grass areas make the course a unique design for its location in rural Morris. The beautiful prairie environment rich with wildlife and plentiful wildflowers and native grasses combine at The Creek to create a remarkable golf experience.
*Please note, The Creek is only open to the public on Saturdays and Sundays.

Heritage Bluffs:
The Bluffs, also known as Heritage Bluffs Public Golf Club, has been one of Chicagoland’s highest rated golf courses since it opened in 1993. It offers both a challenge and composure across its rolling acres that offer scenic beauty unlike most Chicago-area courses.

Located right off of Interstates 55, just south of Joliet, The Bluffs is the pride of the Channahon Park District. The tranquil surroundings make a day playing golf fun and relaxing. The Bluffs is a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary and has received a 4-Star rating from Golf Digest magazine.
The Bluffs is home to a recently (2021) rennovated clubhouse that offers a full bar, dining, expansive patio, and 2 golf simulators. Open year round, The Clubhouse is perfect for lunch, dinner, special events, or a drink. Seasonally you can see live music on the patio or catch your favorite game in the bar!

Cog Hill:
Since opening in 1929, Course No. 2 has been a favorite of Cog Hill's regular golfers. The sporty, championship layout is routed through wooded, rolling terrain and challenges golfers with ravines on nearly half of the holes, hence its nickname the "RAVINES." Unique to the course is the closing "19th hole." The challenging par-3 offers a testy putting surface and a memorable end to the day's golf match.
