Golf in Crystal Lake

Crystal Lake is the largest city in McHenry County and a genuine regional hub, with a Metra commuter rail station, a substantial downtown, and a natural lake that has anchored recreational life in the community since the 19th century. Crystal Lake Country Club occupies the lake's south shore, offering a traditional club experience in a community that straddles the line between genuine small city and Chicago exurb. The city's position at the center of McHenry County makes it the most accessible golf destination for residents across the county's broad agricultural interior. 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.
