Origins

Bowes Creek was developed in Elgin as a public golf course and opened in 2009. Rick Jacobson designed the 18-hole layout.

Design Philosophy

The routing provides a wide spread of rated tee distances, from championship play at nearly 6,800 yards to significantly shorter forward options, while retaining the same par-71 framework.

Recognition

The course has received strong public-course reviews and has previously been promoted as a leading Illinois daily-fee facility.

Today

Bowes Creek remains a public golf facility rather than a private country club, with cart-based daily-fee play, a full practice complex and clubhouse dining.
