South/West at Glenview Golf Course

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.

Good to play Glenview again!
We really enjoyed playing here yesterday. The weather was perfect and all the staff were friendly and welcoming. We played East and South. The course looked good and the greens were in pretty good shape.
Good value
I played a friday afternoon for $29 with a cart. For such a cheap course its in great shape
Great course
We really enjoyed playing at Glenview. The staff was friendly from the pro shop to the starter and everyone we met. There was nobody in front of us or behind us so we could play at our own pace. We loved that. The course was clean. There was even a food and beverage cart that came around. The only suggestion that I would make is to have more yardage markers. It was often difficult to figure our how far away from the hole we were. We will be back!
Local golfer disappointed
The employee at registration had the typical golf shop attitude like I was bothering him. This seems to be a theme regardless of the course. If I was evaluating the help, he would be removed immediately.
The fairways were in great shape however, the greens were not good. The 4 of us did not have 1 put to roll pure. I’d rate the greens, 3-4 out of 10. My sons was visiting from Washington and was excited to play with him. Unfortunately we played there, we should have selected another course,

Winter Golf
For it being mi March, the course was in solid condition. There are still perforation marks on the greens. But, once again, it’s March. This course will be prime before we know it.
