Glen Oak Country Club is a private Club located in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, about a half hour west of Chicago.
With chapters of its past written by some of golf’s storied names, Glen Oak Country Club is rich in tradition. For over 100 years it has been a vibrant hub for its members’ golf, social and family activities.
Glen Oak’s stately clubhouse was built in 1924 and was substantially remodeled in the 1990s. It retains its vintage charm but with modernized amenities. In 2004, the club built “the Lodge,” a comfortable, casual building and home to Glen Oak’s avid trap/skeet shooting club. A large, wood burning fireplace is the Lodge’s center piece during the colder months, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere to have lunch, watch a game or gather with friends. In 2022 the club built the Sports Complex which brought Paddle Tennis, Pickle Ball, and Golf Simulators as added amenities to the Members of Glen Oak.
By providing a superior golf experience and exceptional recreational and social activities, Glen Oak fosters friendship and camaraderie for its members and guests. Since 1911 the club has not only endured, it has thrived. The Club has a solid membership with over 550 total members base backed by a strong financial position.
Facilities include 18 holes of challenging golf with some of the most difficult greens in the Chicagoland area, a driving range and short game area, a newly added Sports Complex inclusive of three Golf Simulators, four Paddle/Pickleball Courts and a full Bar/Lounge area, swimming pool and diving well along with a "Splash Pad" area for younger children, skeet and trap shooting and multiple dining outlets. Annual favorite events include the "Pinky" Tournament, our Member/Guest Round-Up event, Ravinia Night on the Driving Range, Valentine's Day and Christmas Candlelight Dinners, Easter and Mother's Day Brunches, Halloween Haunted House parties, Kid's Camp and multiple other social events.
