About Lincoln Greens Golf Course

Lincoln Greens Golf Course is one of Springfield's primary municipal golf facilities, operated by the city and set along the shores of Lake Springfield on East Lake Shore Drive. The lakeside setting gives the course a scenic character uncommon among flat central Illinois public tracks, with views of the water adding to the enjoyment of the round. Springfield golfers have two city-operated options — Lincoln Greens and Pasfield — providing affordable public golf throughout the April-to-October season. The course serves a broad cross-section of Springfield's golfing population, from beginners to retired regulars who play multiple times per week. As the capital city, Springfield's golf market includes a steady stream of state government workers and visitors who appreciate a quality municipal option near the lake.

History

Lincoln Greens Golf Course was developed as part of Springfield's municipal parks and recreation system, named in honor of Abraham Lincoln, the city's most famous resident and 16th U.S. president. The Lake Shore Drive location along Lake Springfield was chosen to maximize scenic value and recreational synergy with the city's premier reservoir. It has served Springfield residents as a community golf asset for decades.
