Nestled amidst over 400 acres of pristine countryside in Marshall, Illinois, Canyata Golf Club is one of the most exclusive and storied golf courses in America. Ranked as high as #37 in Golf Digest's Top 100, this hidden gem has been an elusive dream for most golfers—until now.
Just outside the quintessential American farm town of Marshall, Canyata is a 7,200-yard stunner molded from the rugged and rolling farmland of east central Illinois by golf architect Michael Benkusky. Named the #2 Best New Private Course in the United States in 2005 by Golf Digest Magazine, Canyata is definitely a very special place. Meticulously crafted from two million cubic yards of transformed farmland, Canyata’s immaculate bent grass fairways, breathtaking water features and sculpted bunkers set the stage for an unforgettable round of golf.
As the home of Icon Golf, this exquisite property can only be experienced by members of the Icon family. Our vision, beyond pristine golf, includes a variety of on-site accommodations, a par-3 course, comfort stations, re-imagined world-class practice facilities, lit putting greens, fish camp, trails and more.
