Golf in Round Lake Beach

Round Lake Beach is a village in Lake County, set in the lake-dotted northern reaches of the county northwest of Chicago. Part of the broader Chain O'Lakes region, the area mixes interconnected lakes, woodland, and residential growth in a landscape long oriented toward recreation. Round Lake Beach grew rapidly through the twentieth century into a busy residential community, one of several lake-area villages that share the name. The surrounding lakes draw boaters and anglers through the warm months, giving the area a seasonal, outdoor character. Golf here offers recreational rounds set amid the country of water and woodland that defines the region. For golfers, Round Lake Beach provides a round in one of the more recreation-minded stretches of the northern county, well north of the dense suburbs, where the lakes of the Chain O'Lakes shape the surrounding landscape and the rhythm of the seasons.
