ABOUT PINE MEADOW GOLF CLUB
Mundelein, IL | Pine Meadow Golf Club is a public facility in the northwest suburbs of Chicago, designed in 1984 by architects Joe Lee and Rocky Roquemore. Pine Meadow opened for play in 1986 and was voted the best “New Public Course in America” by Golf Digest, and continues to be ranked among the Top 10 public access courses in Illinois. The facility is operated by the Jemsek Family, who has overseen the initial construction of the golf course, as well as the clubhouse and maintenance facility.
The golf course has seven sets of tees from 7238 to 5272 yards to accommodate players of all skill levels. 250-year-old oak trees, 60-foot tall pines, maples, and shagbark hickory trees border the fairways. While the Pine Meadow Golf Club course is nationally known, so too is its learning center and practice facility. The learning center and practice facility is considered the best of its kind in Northern Illinois.
The Club’s mission is to create extraordinary guest experiences by delivering superior golf in an inviting, relaxed atmosphere where everyone is respected and welcomed like family.
