The Deerpath Golf Course is owned and operated by The City of Lake Forest under the direction of the Parks and Recreation Department. The course is operated as an enterprise fund, and is financially self-sufficient. Revenues are used to maintain and enhance the course.

This is Deerpath’s 82nd season as one of the oldest and finest municipal courses in the Midwest. It is a traditional 18-hole course measuring 6,255 yards with a par 70 for men and 5,487 yards with a par 72 for women. The course layout and top turf conditions, along with consistent renovations and updates, maintain Deerpath’s status as a challenging and picturesque course for golfers of all levels. 

Deerpath is a spikeless course and open to the public seven days a week, opening for play on or about March 20 and closing on or about December 15, weather permitting. Staff is on hand at the course from March 1st throughout the season. If you are new to Deerpath, come in to meet our Pro Shop staff and check the course layout before the season starts.

Fees can be paid daily or seasonally. Ample weekend starting times are available to both seasonal members and daily golfers. Weekend and holiday seasonal starting times are allotted through lottery procedures detailed on page 3 of the Golf Brochure. All other starting times can be reserved 5 days in advance.

For golfers with special needs, accommodations will be made in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Please call the Pro Shop at 847-615-4290 for information on special needs or if the information in this brochure is required in an alternate format.
