ClubLife Management Selected to Oversee Operations of Historic Chicago-Area Midlothian Country Club
DALLAS – ClubLife Management – a full-service management division sponsored by Invited – announces it has been chosen to oversee operations of Midlothian Country Club, one of the Chicago area’s most celebrated private lifestyle golf and country clubs.
“Midlothian Country Club has long been recognized for the quality of its championship golf course, family-friendly culture and lifestyle amenities,” said Mark Wheeler, Club President. “We are very excited to partner with ClubLife Management to help us elevate the member experience through enhanced lifestyle-oriented programming and improved service standards as well as reciprocal access to their network of over 300 clubs nationwide. Our goal is to be the club of choice in greater Chicagoland, and ClubLife Management will help achieve that goal.”

Established in 1898 and the first privately owned club south of Chicago, Midlothian Country Club offers 18 holes of picturesque golf that challenge a wide range of golfers with varying skill levels, extensive practice facilities and a robust caddy program. Steeped in tradition and history, the club has served as the site for many amateur and professional tournaments through the years, including the 1914 U.S. Open during which Walter Hagen defeated Chick Evans to win the first of his 11 major championships.
The colonial-style clubhouse featuring majestic pillars offers a member lounge, casual and upscale dining, and a spacious veranda overlooking the golf course. Amenities also include well-appointed meeting, banquet and dining private event space that can accommodate up to 300.
