Course Reviews

Course Name Settler's Hill Golf Course
Location Batavia, Illinois, USA
Comments from Brian Heer, Wheaton, Illinois, USA
The drive leading into Settler's Hill should provide insight that this golf outing will be a unique experience. The clubhouse, overlooking the practice green, is a renovated dairy barn dating to the property's turn-of-the-century roots as Kane County's "poor farm." And prior to its current incarnation, this was the site of the county's solid waste landfill. Recognized as Illinois' first reclamation project of its type, a variety of terrain confronts the golfer. From links-style holes designed on a landfill vista, to scenic forays into the preserved woodlands, the golf course presents dramatic changes in elevation and ambiance. The par 5, 6th hole, winding along the western boundary of the tract is a picture-perfect blend of woods, water and topography.
