Golf in Wood Dale

Wood Dale is a city in DuPage County, set in Chicago's western suburbs near the West Branch DuPage River and the O'Hare corridor. Largely residential and industrial, it grew through the twentieth century into a compact, fully developed community within the busy western metro. The river corridor and its surrounding woodland and open ground thread the area, providing stretches of habitat amid the development. Wood Dale's location near the airport and the expressways places it within easy reach of both the city and the wider region. Golf here is set at a forest preserve course restored as an ecological and recreational project, occupying riverside woodland along the West Branch DuPage River. For golfers, Wood Dale offers a distinctive round in the western suburbs, set within a preserve shaped by river-corridor habitat, in a community near O'Hare where the restored course provides a notable stretch of green.
