Bloomingdale Golf Club is an 18-hole public course near Chicago that has been in operation since 1924. The original layout came from architect Tom Bendelow, whose work also includes Course No. 3 at Medinah Country Club, and the course was redesigned in the late 1990s by Lohmann Golf Design.
Playing to a par of 71 at just over 6,100 yards, the layout runs through mature, tree-lined fairways with strategic bunkering and well-guarded greens, asking for thoughtful shotmaking while remaining playable for golfers of varying skill levels. The course is maintained with an emphasis on smooth, true putting surfaces and consistent conditioning.
