On June 18,1927 Peru Municipal Golf Course opened for play and since then many golfers have enjoyed the golf course, the exercise, the competition, and the friendships forged at the “Muni”. In 1927 the golf course was seven holes, the golf season was April – September.

Since the opening season in 1927, many improvements have been made. The first water system was installed in 1930 to front nine greens only, the back 9 opened in 1934 along with a brick maintenance building left of number 3 fairway. The current clubhouse was built in 1968 and has been newly painted and updated in 2025.  A fairway irrigation system was added in 1987 and a new irrigation system has been put in and was completed in the fall of 2025.  Cart paths were added throughout the 80s and 90s. During the 90s a newly paved parking lot was added and has been repaved in 2025.  Bridges were rebuilt to provide better access and safety, and various tees and drainage projects improved the course. The start of 2006 saw  new sand bunkers culminating a three month effort involving golf course staff, crew and many golfer volunteers. In 2026 sand bunkers have  gone through a complete makeover.  The pro shop staff and greens keeping crew are continually working to making the Peru “Muni” an enjoyable experience for all golfers to enjoy and afford.  We welcome golfers of all skill levels to come and enjoy the “Muni”.
