Blackstone Golf Club is Both a Thrilling Challenge and a Classic Masterpiece that Every Golfer Will Admire and Appreciate “There’s plenty to challenge the good player. For the mid- to high- handicapper, we’ve made the fairway corridors extremely wide so, they can play away from the trouble.” Bob Lohmann, Designer of Blackstone Golf Club Featuring over 26 acres of environmentally protected wetlands, the lush bentgrass fairways and greens of Blackstone Golf Club meander through some of the most distinctive natural landscape of any course in the Chicagoland area. And although it can stretch out to a total of 6,727 yards, Blackstone features 4 sets of tees to suit golfers of all skill levels and plays to a very manageable 4,893 yards at its shortest. The seasoned golfer will find challenge in avoiding the 54 sand bunkers that designer Bob Lohmann calls “strategically placed” and “pretty bold with… irregular edges,” while the more novice golfer will enjoy the spectacular visual setting with generous fairways. With 9 holes stretching through dense forests of Oak and Hickory and unique, enthralling wetlands coming into play on 13 holes, the views are as beautiful as the course is demanding!
