If there is one Chicago area golf facility that doesn’t close for the winter season, it’s Cog Hill.

Courses #1 and #3 do stay open all year round, along with the practice facilities on most days. Kevin Weeks remains hard at work in the Cog Hill Barn on the back end of the range.

In the barn is Chicago’s top putting facility complete with everything a golfer could need. Weeks himself is a three-time Teacher of the Year award winner from the IPGA.

One of the fun things that tee’s off the Christmas and holiday season is the Cog Hill Christmas Sale in the 2-4 building. This year it’s 10-4 and will be held on December 2nd.
