A 14-hole municipal that exists because someone looked at the available land and said "make it work." The result is something genuinely different. Not a par-3 course, not a full 18, just 14 holes of actual golf carved into the North Shore suburbs. The layout walks easily enough. Flat Chicago terrain does the heavy lifting. You'll play some holes twice to make a full round, which sounds odd until you realize the routing handles it cleanly. Green fees stay municipal-friendly. The whole thing takes less time than a standard 18, which matters when summer daylight competes with dinner reservations. Wilmette delivers honest golf without the pretense that creeps into neighboring clubs.
