Cog Hill Golf and Country Club
Cog Hill in Lemont may be the most challenging golf course in the Chicago area. It is actually a series of four golf courses that the golfer can choose from. The most difficult and memorable of the courses is called "Dubsdread" and it is the one the PGA golfers use for BMW Open. It is a great challenge with deep bunkers and a number of water hazards.
