Golf in Lake Villa

Lake Villa is a village in Lake County, set in the lake-dotted northern reaches of the county near the Wisconsin border. Part of the broader Chain O'Lakes region, the area mixes interconnected lakes, woodland, and open ground in a landscape long oriented toward recreation. Lake Villa grew from a resort and farming community into a residential village while keeping much of its small-town feel, well north of the dense suburbs. The surrounding lakes draw boaters and anglers through the warm months, giving the area a seasonal, outdoor rhythm. Golf here is set amid this country of water and woods, offering recreational rounds to the village and the neighboring lake communities. For golfers, Lake Villa provides a round in one of the more scenic and recreation-minded stretches of the northern county, where lakes define the landscape.
