Tucked along the Fox River since 1914, Aurora Country Club is a graceful Tom Bendelow and William Langford design that winds through mature oaks and gentle hills in one of Chicago’s earliest western suburbs. The course plays firm and fast with clever green complexes that demand precise approach angles, while the historic clubhouse feels like stepping into a bygone era of Midwest elegance. Members cherish its walkable layout, strong junior program, and the famous “postage-stamp” par-3 16th, and the rare feeling of seclusion just 40 miles from the Loop.
