Hughes Creek Golf Course

Geneva, IL · 3.2 mi away

Tanna Farms Golf Club is located on the west side of Geneva, Illinois, in the Fox Valley, built on land bordering the Mill Creek subdivision. Designed by architect Roy Case, the course opened as a nine-hole layout with a second nine added later, an unusual routing of six par 3s, seven par 4s, and five par 5s. The semi-private, par-71 course plays 6,510 yards from the back tees through prairie wetlands and wildflower areas, starting with an island-green par-3 first hole. It has no driving range but offers a short-game area, putting green, restaurant, and banquet facilities.

Aurora, IL · 7.4 mi away

Orchard Valley Golf Course is a public course owned by the Fox Valley Park District in Aurora, Illinois, on the city's west side. It opened in 1993 and became known for bringing a private-club style layout to public golf in the Chicago area, highlighted by a two-tiered green fronted by a pond and waterfall near its opening holes. The course was designed by Ken Kavanaugh and has hosted the Illinois Open Championship. Large, undulating greens and ample fairways create risk-reward options on several of the shorter par fours, with a closing hole that requires a tee shot over water. Orchard Valley is open to public play and is undergoing a multi-year renovation of its bunkers, irrigation, greens and cart paths, funded through a park district capital project, with completion anticipated in 2026.

Elgin, IL · 9.9 mi away

Bowes Creek Golf Club, part of Bowes Creek Country Club, is an 18-hole public course in Elgin, Illinois, anchoring a 616-acre residential community in Kane County. The course was designed by architect Rick Jacobson. The layout integrates natural features of the site, including Bowes Creek itself, wetlands, a lake, rolling former farmland, mature trees and bluff slopes, with expansive fairways and sweeping bunkers edged by fescue grass. Five sets of tees range from about 5,100 to 6,900 yards, accommodating a wide range of playing abilities. Membership is open to the public through annual memberships or a "member for a day" fee instead of standard green fees, which includes cart use and access to the practice facility, driving range and clubhouse restaurant.
