Enjoy a day of 18 holes of golf for four, plus carts at Ravisloe Country Club.
The original golf course, designed by James Foulis and Theodore Moreau in 1901, was a 9-hole
course. An additional 55 acres were purchased and 9 more holes were designed and overseen by
William Watson from 1910 to 1913. Donald Ross supervised a renovation, carried out from over
the span of years 1917-19. Updates continued until 1924. In 2001 club membership
commissioned David Esler to restore the course features in the same style as Donald Ross. The country club was established in 1901 by mostly Jewish members of Chicago's Standard Club, on the site of the Briggs farm, only after the first property choice belonging to a Dutchman named Ravisloot. The membership decided on Ravislow, eventually settling on the name Ravisloe. Take a swing at the 2014 award winning, Sixth Best Public Access golf course in Illinois selected by Golfweek Magazine.
