Course Architect: Donald Ross

Elmhurst’s founders hired the best of the day in Golf Hall of Fame Architect Donald Ross. Now considered one of the most renowned golf designers in the history of the game, Ross is noted the world over for his fabled designs including Pinehurst No. 2, Seminole, and Oakland Hills, among hundreds of other creations.

Walkable

There’s nothing better than grabbing your clubs and walking a course, talking with friends between shots, pondering the way you’re going to attack the pin on your approach, or how you’ll recover from that greenside bunker.

Course Restoration

In 2004 a Master Restoration plan was created under the guidance of Ron Pritchard, renowned for his historically accurate work on Ross courses throughout North America. That plan has continued to be followed ever since. Restoration has continued at the club with work provided by Dan Philcox (Old World Golf) who holds Elmhurst in the highest esteem. Dan’s most recent work included the finishing of the 17th and 18th hole restorations in the falls of 2023 and 2024. Dan was joined by Riley Johns (Rhebb & Johns Golf Design) for 2016 restoration work to the green complexes of holes 16 and 18.

“Elmhurst has a reputation of being a challenge to the most elite players as well as an enjoyable and fair test for average golfers.”
