Seven Bridges Golf Club

What Seven Bridges Golf Club does

Seven Bridges Golf Club is a privately held, single-asset public-access golf and hospitality business founded in 1991 and headquartered at 1 Mulligan Drive, Woodridge, Illinois, in DuPage County approximately 30 minutes from Chicago. The company operates an 18-hole Par 72 championship golf course with rolling terrain, water hazards, and named signature holes, supported by a full-service pro shop and The Dock Bar & Grill, an on-site restaurant with west-facing sunset views over the course.

The business generates revenue across seven primary streams: (1) daily green fees and online tee time bookings, (2) prepaid Golf Pass Programs (Gold 25-round at $2,100 and a Platinum 100-round tier) and the Twilight Club Membership (capped at 25 members at $2,249 for unlimited after-2:30/3:30pm play with cart and 20% food discount), (3) food and beverage at The Dock Bar & Grill (also on DoorDash for delivery), (4) corporate and charity golf outings/tournaments directed by a dedicated Tournament Director, (5) banquet and wedding events accommodating 250+ guests with no more than one wedding per day, (6) golf shop merchandise (Nike, Titleist, Bad Birdie, Swannies), and (7) a GPS cart advertising and sponsorship program that exchanges golf passes for sponsor messaging on Club Car Visage-equipped carts. Pricing for special events ranges from $77/person (Throwback Tuesday) to $229/couple (Couples Nine, Wine & Dine).

The club serves four core customer segments — individual and group golfers, corporate and business clients, wedding and social event clients, and casual diners — and pursues a hybrid go-to-market combining direct-to-consumer tee time booking and an enterprise field sales motion for outings and banquets. Go-to-market channels include property website, organic social (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube), email (E-Club newsletter), paid Google and social ads, and referral partnerships through wedding platforms (The Knot, WeddingWire, Zola) and technology integrations (Tock, DoorDash, Club Car, TrackMan). The company is celebrating its 35th anniversary in 2026 and is independently operated without disclosed institutional ownership.
