Golf in Prairie Grove

Prairie Grove is a village in McHenry County, set near Crystal Lake in Chicago's northwest exurbs. The surrounding terrain is shaped by the woodland, water, and gently worked ground of the Fox River valley, lending the area a green, low-density character. Prairie Grove developed as a quiet residential community, retaining a semi-rural feel even as neighboring towns grew busier. Its setting amid the woods and waterways of the region distinguishes it from the denser suburbs to the east. Golf is well represented here, ranging from a full course to a practice and instruction facility set on the wooded and open ground typical of the area. For golfers, Prairie Grove offers a varied set of rounds and practice options within one community, all set in the Fox River valley exurbs where the woods and water of the Crystal Lake area shape the surrounding landscape.
