Golf in Cahokia Heights

Cahokia Heights in St. Clair County sits adjacent to some of the most significant archaeological terrain in North America — the Cahokia Mounds, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, lies just to the north, preserving remnants of the Mississippian culture's largest city. The modern community occupies former bottomland and near-suburban development close to the Mississippi, a dense residential area that is home to a diverse working-class population. The proximity to the ancient mound complex gives Cahokia Heights a historical depth that belies its modest present-day scale. Illinois' changing seasons create an enthusiastic golf community that maximizes every available day of good weather, sustaining the local course as a central gathering point through the compressed but celebrated Midwest golf season.
