Merit Club is a private club in Libertyville, a Lake County village in the central part of the county northwest of Chicago. The course was built on open, prairie-style ground and has hosted national competition, marking it among the more notable venues in the region rather than a typical daily-fee layout. Libertyville's blend of historic downtown and surrounding open land frames the club's quiet inland setting, where woodland and small waterways shape the terrain. As a members-oriented facility, it occupies ground away from the lakefront suburbs to the east, set amid the open country of the central county. For golfers, Merit Club represents a distinguished modern layout that has drawn championship play to one of Lake County's more characterful communities, near its older village core.
