The 18-hole "Blackstone" course at the Blackstone Golf Club facility in Marengo, Illinois features 6,727 yards of golf from the longest tees for a par of 72. Designed by Robert M. Lohmann, ASGCA, the Blackstone golf course opened in 2006.
The new clubhouse is finished and open for business. Food is excellent. Staff is very friendly. Spent the second half of the Super Bowl 2012 there with friends. I have played the course a couple of times each year over the past five years. It is challenging, rewarding, punishing, and very picturesque. It is a gem. Easy access off of I90 going North on Rte. 20.
Discovered this new course a few years ago. Not sure if the new clubhouse is built yet, but they had (have) a mobile home functioning as the clubhouse. Anyway, course is worth the money. Give you a range token to warm up, good putting green. Fairway and tee boxes are in great shape, a lot of scenic holes. ONly a few holes with houses on them, but many where you don't see anything but woods. It's a newer course where they kept a lot of the old mature trees and encorporated that into the course. The greens are lighting fast in the heart of the summer and makes it hard to score. Played several times and have never really had to wait very long for group in front. Course plays pretty fast.
