Golf in Princeton

Princeton is the Bureau County seat, a small city with connections to the abolitionist movement in antebellum Illinois and a long history as a civic and commercial hub for northern Bureau County. The community's main street character and historic courthouse square reflect a small-city civic tradition that distinguishes it from the more generic commercial development of the I-39 corridor communities to the east. Wayton Hill's Golf Course serves a county-seat community with the kind of stable, multi-generational residential base that sustains local recreational facilities across generations. 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.
