River Forest Country Club, Elmhurst, IL, Real Estate
River Forest Country Club occupies a 155-acre site in Elmhurst, Illinois, bounded by York Road, Roosevelt Road, and the Union Pacific railroad tracks. Its original eighteen-hole layout, designed by Tom Bendelow and opened in 1899, was later revised by Donald Ross in 1923 and by Roger Packard in the 1980s. The course is anchored by mature oak, hickory, and maple stands that define many fairways and create natural separation between holes. A tributary of Salt Creek winds through the property, influencing several mid-length holes with lateral water hazards and small ponds. The putting surfaces, seeded with bentgrass, are maintained at moderate speed and feature subtle contouring rather than severe slopes. Bunkers are predominantly rectangular and shallow, set flush to fairway level rather than mounded, reflecting the design period. The club’s clubhouse, a two-story red-brick structure with white trim, sits near the first tee and contains locker rooms, dining rooms, and administrative offices. Practice facilities include a driving range oriented parallel to the tenth fairway and a short-game area with two practice greens.
