South/West at Glenview Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Golf Digest's Top 75 Public Courses included Glenview Golf Course once upon a time, and the U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship was played there once, too. Even if the golf course's prestige has faded a bit - or simply been surpassed by golf courses that were designed more recently - the golf course still offers a test and still draws golfers.
If golfers choose to golf the South and West golf courses in tandem at the Glenview golf club, they'd be looking at a route that would take them 6,843 yards from the Black tees. Teeing off on the South Course, golfers would have to travel 401 yards from the Black tees and do it with a par of 4. Things get long on the South Course's third hole, a par 5 that measures 547 yards from the Black tees and is one of four holes that play to over 500 yards on this route.
The West Course's ninth hole is one of these, requiring golfers who go South Course to West Course at the Glenview Golf Course to close out on a par 5 that measures 541 yards from the Black tees.

Great course
Glenview is always a fair and great condition golf course and fun to play
Great Course for the Money
Gray Course , Great Day , Great People .... very fun course
Terrific Experience
Course is in great shape, and the staff is working hard to accommodate distancing. Great for walking or riding. Really appreciate this place,
Below average
Not even worth a hot deal for $23 on golf now. I would’ve rather spent $10-20 anywhere else. Staff was rude course has seen better days.
Feel like the course loves me!
I have been playing this course for several years. A few tough and blind holes but very fair for an old timer like me. Bring your 3-wood as you'll probably need it. Greens are always in great shape. Lots of hawks, deer and wild turkeys make Glenview even more fun!
Glenview South/West
Played in 3:30 and staff was friendly. Unfortunately the course has seen better days. Fairways are beaten up, rough burned dry, bunkers unraked and greens below average. Layout also impacted by some overgrown trees.
Really Nice
It was a great day to play golf. The course was in good shape and was well taken care of it was a great time all around.
Great course
I havent played here all year and ill for sure be back, the fairways are in great shape and the greens are top notch. I love the different hole layouts. Beautiful course and its worth every penny.
Great course
The staff were very friendly and helpful. The check in/cart process was very organized. The course is in great shape. Saw a ton of wildlife during our round which was a pleasant surprise. I expected the greens to be faster, but with as much rain as we had they weren’t too bad. It was my first time golfing here, definitely on my list to go back.
Condition
Probably the best condition I’ve played at glenview , had a great experience today with a decent round and got to play an extra 9
Getting better and better
Course is in good shape and plays nice. Unfortunately the driving range is closed Tuesday mornings. We'll definitely be back!
Varied terrain and nice conditions.
Better than expected for a busy course. Nice rolling hills;. Keep it in the short grass as the rough was fairly thick and ball sits down. Nice par 3s and holes have some character. You can see staff working to improve conditions on the course. Very playable as well as interesting layout.
Scenic and well maintained course
The weather was perfect for golf!! I enjoyed the round though the pace of play was a bit slow. The course was very scenic with fairways/greens well maintained. Plan to go back soon!!
Pretty nice
Nice course...fairways good, greens and tee boxes in really good shape. Some holes very challenging. Bunkers well placed and in good condition
Thanks for your review. We are so glad that you enjoyed your experience! Hope to see you again soon.
