The new clubhouse basement is taking shape.

Mistwood Golf is really taking shape as the final phase of upgrades under owner Jim McWethy, are working their way towards completion.

First it was the golf course, then it was the new Performance Center and now it will be the new clubhouse. While the official plan on the new clubhouse was a good one, a decision was made to modify it just so the future guests in the banquet facility can dine and dance in even more comfort.

As a result of the changes that added 20 feet to the structure, and over 1200 square feet inside, the clubhouse facility is looking more likely at a July of 2015 opening date. But McWethy is still planning to have it open in time for the Phil Kosin Illinois Women’s Open.

In the meantime, your tee time is 8 AM this morning at MCQ’s. Don’t miss one a great breakfast’s by one of the great golf club chefs in the Chicago area. Make a purchase for yourself or the golfer in your life, or favorite foursome. The Mistwood pro shop has moved to MCQ’s, don’t waste time shopping online. Go to MCQ’s.
