Club House Manager
Apply NowCompany: Century Golf Partners Management
Location: Barrington, IL 60010
Description:
Established in 1989, The Club at Wynstone is a full-service, private lifestyle club. Situated on an inimitable piece of land that was once the country estate of Chicago philanthropist W. Clement Stone, The Club is the heart of the Wynstone Residential Community, one of the most prestigious gated communities in the Midwest.
Golf legend Jack Nicklaus crafted our breathtaking golf course among the rolling hills, wetlands and mature oak stands of the property. His vision and respect for the natural topography of the land generated a championship golf course that is ranked as one of the "Best Courses in Illinois" by Golf Digest. The Clubhouse is perfectly positioned overlooking the golf course and features a variety of indoor and outdoor dining venues, spacious men's and women's locker rooms - each with private lounges - a charming pub and spacious rooms for banquets, social events and private dining. A fitness room, family-friendly swimming pool and tennis complex round out the recreational facilities.
In 2017, a group of nine families who live in the Wynstone community came together to purchase The Club at Wynstone. This allowed the Club to convert from an equity Club to a privately-owned Club. In doing so, the Ownership Families have committed to spending significant resources to make The Club at Wynstone exclusive and premier for our members. Our Ownership Families guarantee no assessments or minimum spending. The Ownership Families are affiliated with Century Golf Partners, a professional Club management company that oversees the day-to-day operations and provides ongoing management for The Club at Wynstone.
