After being a farm, the property opened as Lincolnvale Country Club with an 18-hole golf course. It was very popular with golfers from Porter and Lake County as well as Chicago. The banked barn has a sign that reads "Where nature considers the golfer." Later it was opened as Lincoln Hills Golf Course with 9 holes. The two-story home was built in 1890.
