Golf in Manteno

Manteno is a Kankakee County village that has grown steadily as a bedroom community for the Kankakee area and, for some residents, the southern Chicago suburbs. The community's position along U.S. Route 45 and the Metra Electric extension of the south suburban rail network gives it unusual transportation connectivity for a community of its size. Manteno Golf Club provides recreational golf in a village that balances its small-town character with the residential growth pressure coming from both the Kankakee urban core and the outer Chicago metropolitan fringe. 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.
