Evanston Golf Club

About Evanston Golf Club

This Skokie municipal track punches well above its weight class, earning a stellar 4.7-star rating from nearly 200 golfers who clearly appreciate honest, no-frills golf. The course sits in an older residential area where mature trees frame most holes, creating a parkland feel that's increasingly rare among Chicago's public offerings. What sets this place apart is the walking-friendly routing and the fact that it hasn't been over-modernized – you'll find classic green complexes and straightforward hole designs that reward good course management over raw power. The real appeal here is the combination of accessibility and quality conditioning that keeps locals coming back. Unlike some of the area's more famous municipal courses that can feel crowded and beat up, Evanston Golf Club maintains a more intimate atmosphere where you can actually enjoy your round. The price point makes it an outstanding value for golfers who want a legitimate test without the premium fees, and the fact that walking is encouraged gives it an old-school charm that's perfect for anyone tired of cart-mandatory layouts.
