Tamarack Golf Club

What Tamarack Golf Club does

Tamarack Golf Club is a daily-fee public golf facility operating an 18-hole, par-70 championship course at 24032 Royal Worlington Dr in Naperville, Illinois. Founded in 1989 and designed by David Gill, the course stretches nearly 6,900 yards from the back tees across bentgrass surfaces framed by mature trees, sculpted fairways, and water features, and was named Golf Digest's 'Best New Public Golf Course of the Year' at its debut. The club is owned and operated by Arcis Golf LLC, a privately held Texas-based company (a portfolio asset of Arcis Equity Partners) that runs 88+ private, resort, and daily-fee golf courses across the United States, giving Tamarack access to corporate marketing, technology platforms, and the Arcis Players' cross-property membership program.

The business operates six revenue streams: green fees and public tee time bookings (via ezlinksgolf.com), the Arcis Players' annual subscription membership offering fee-only afternoon golf and weekly PGA-led clinics, food and beverage/experiential dining, a golf shop with gift cards sold in $50, $100, and $200 denominations, personalized golf instruction, and private event hosting (weddings, corporate outings, tournaments) with banquet and outdoor spaces accommodating up to approximately 180 guests. Tee time booking is split between public and member portals, and customer communications flow through email and SMS opt-in channels.

The customer base is diversified across public daily-fee golfers in the Chicagoland/Naperville market, Arcis Players' Club members, wedding and special-event clients, and corporate outing organizers. The club has 22 employees, no disclosed funding, and no public revenue figures. Its go-to-market is direct-to-consumer with a multi-channel marketing mix including the Arcis Golf website network, ezlinksgolf.com booking, email/SMS, ambassador programs with PGA/LPGA professionals, and organic social media.
