Overview: Ruth Lake Country Club is a classic Hinsdale, Illinois course set among mature Midwestern trees and gently rolling ground. The 18-hole layout plays to par 71 and 6,691 yards from the championship tees, with Arthur Hills and Steve Forrest credited for the modern restoration.
History: The club was founded in 1922, and the complete 18-hole course began play in July 1923. Historical records connect the early layout with David Foulis, William Langford and Theodore Moreau, while the 2005 restoration returned attention to the course’s original terrain and strategic character.
Did You Know? Ruth Lake’s caddie tradition dates to the club’s beginning. The course history therefore includes not only architects and renovations, but also a long-running human connection between the golf course and its local caddie program.
