Lockport sits in Will County, about 35 miles southwest of Chicago, where the old Illinois and Michigan Canal once defined the region's economy and the Des Plaines River valley still shapes its topography. The Chicago metropolitan area supports one of the densest concentrations of public golf in the country, and courses in this outer ring of suburbs tend to offer serious value — accessible layouts where working golfers can play regularly without the overhead of a private membership.
The name North/South suggests a routing built around a natural dividing feature — a tree line, a ridge, or a creek corridor running through the property — with 9 holes playing in each direction. That kind of back-and-forth exposure is common on the Illinois flatlands, where the terrain rarely forces dramatic elevation changes but the wind off the open prairie becomes a factor that quietly rewrites your scoring expectations hole by hole.
Without more on record about the architect or the club's origins, what's clear is that a par-72 layout in this corridor serves a region with a genuine appetite for the game and a long tradition of straightforward, unpretentious public golf.
