Golf in Harwood Heights

Harwood Heights is one of Cook County's smallest municipalities, a compact village wedged between Chicago's Norwood Park neighborhood and the larger suburb of Norridge. Ridgemoor Country Club occupies a notable share of the village's limited footprint, a private club serving an inner-ring suburban membership base that spans the northwest side of Chicago and the immediately adjacent villages. The club's longevity in one of the region's most densely developed environments speaks to the depth of private golf tradition in Cook County's older suburbs. The surrounding community's investment in recreational infrastructure reflects the Illinois tradition of municipal and private facilities working together to sustain accessible, quality golf for residents across the income spectrum.
