Excellent golf courses offering
variety and unique challenges greet the amateur or the pro golfer.
Southern Illinois courses have superb championship layouts on manicured
bent grass greens. Enjoy magnificent vistas through rolling meadows and
woodlands. Golfers can play anywhere from nine to 27 holes, all at
value prices. With early spring and late fall seasons, Southern Illinois courses offer longer playing times. Even during the winter, many courses are open when weather permits. Southern Illinois courses are less than two hours south and east of St. Louis.. The region's courses are all located in areas that offer many other tourist attractions: scenic drives, the Shawnee National Forest, historical and cultural attractions, bike and walking trails, lakes, camping, fishing boating, parks, recreational areas and much more.
