Golf in Kankakee

Kankakee is the county seat and largest city of Kankakee County, situated on the Kankakee River where the city developed around manufacturing, agriculture, and the Illinois Central railroad. The city has a distinctive architectural legacy connected to Frank Lloyd Wright's Bradley House, and a community identity shaped by its position as the principal commercial center for a large rural hinterland. Kankakee Country Club serves a city that has navigated significant economic transitions while maintaining a civic culture with deep roots in the manufacturing and agricultural economy of northeastern Illinois. 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.
