Bunkers and bare spots

I enjoy this course, but it needs some work. The bunkers are no longer sand traps, but rather dirt or mud traps. Like wise some of the greens need work.

Not a good spot to golf

Tried this spot 3 times and got worse everything. This was the last straw tees were garbage, and un maintained. The player who go there are also rude and like to cut ahead of you and slow the pace.

The ranger tried to yell at everyone except the players who were slow. Dont recommend this spot and will never come back. Save your money

Staff is awesome course is trash

I hate to say it but the overall course was in bad shape. The greens were beat up and the overall course was shot. This course has so much potential but it needs a lot of love

Great Layout, Rough Condition

Palos Country Club was a longer 9-hole course than I am normally accustomed to, but it provided my golf partner and me a great challenge in terms of the layout. However, the course itself has seen better days, the greens grass was dead in many spots, the roughs were more than rough, and in some cases, it was tough to distinguish where the fairways ended, and the roughs began.

If the condition of the course was good to pristine, this would have garnered a 5 star rating instantly.

If you've never been to Palos Country Club, I would recommend trying it once just to say you challenged a longer 9-hole course in the Chicago suburbs and see what your score is at the end of the round. If the course itself was in better condition, I would recommend a repeat trip.

Has potential but needs some help.

Putting greens needs a lot of attention and so does the tee box. I like the course layout out and difficulty. The course has a lot of potential. After speaking to the staff about this., there are plans to address these things. I hope they do because I would like playing there a lot more if the course was in a little better condition. It is a good value and the staff is very friendly, but don’t get upset if you hit a put and it rolls off line because of poor green condition. That will definitely happen to you. They do have good specials for Fridays and Mondays to combine food and drink with tee time costs.

Needs some TLC, nice layout

Been many years since playing here. Course needs a little attention: fairways with lots of weeds, greens with some rough patches, some traps look abandoned. It’s not all bad but needs some work. Too bad as it’s a sporty layout. Murphy’s was a good spot for after-golf refreshments and lunch. Great rate through GolfNow.

Course layout is absolutely beautiful

Trees and water abound throughout the course.

Very picturesque

Many holes could claim “signature holes”
