Lake of the Woods Golf Course

Urbana, IL · 13 mi away

Atkins Golf Club sits in Urbana, Illinois, a few miles from the University of Illinois campus. Built in 1999 as Stone Creek Golf Club under the vision of Clint Atkins with architects Dick and Tim Nugent, the course became home to the university's men's and women's golf teams. In 2020, the Atkins family donated the course and surrounding acreage to the University of Illinois, and the property was renamed Atkins Golf Club. Architect Drew Rogers subsequently led a renovation that rebuilt the greens and bunkers and lengthened the course, creating a championship-caliber par-71 layout that can stretch beyond 7,500 yards from the back tees. The course is open to public play and is managed by Troon, with five sets of tees offering flexibility for golfers of varying abilities. It includes a driving range, pitching and putting greens, and Oskee's Sports Pub inside the clubhouse.

The Den at Fox Creek is a public course in Bloomington, Illinois, built as the city's third municipal course and designed as an Arnold Palmer Signature course. It opened on August 1, 1997, laid out in a Scottish links style with wild prairie grasses filling the rough around bentgrass tees, fairways and greens. Palmer played in the course's grand opening round and later returned for its formal opening event in 1998. The layout runs to roughly 6,900 yards from the back tees with wide fairways offset by 131 bunkers, and water comes into play on about half the holes. It has hosted the Illinois high school boys' state championship and is operated by the City of Bloomington's parks department, with a full practice area including a large range, chipping green and putting green.
