Great Course
Exceed my expectations. I can play there every day.
Well manicured
Fairways and greens in great shape. Links course is very challenging. I suggest clubbing down on tee box. Roll is plenty so take 3wood over driver.
F.Y.I. if using "hot deal" starter won't let you take your own cart if your single. Forces you to ride with stranger. Just odd.
Best Track In Chicago- land
I play here 5-7 times per year and absolutely always love playing here. It is very challenging with a great scenery.
this course delivers
Is being a hard course a bad thing? i dont think so. #1 this course is beautiful. #2 Is it hella challenging? yes. from the tips its 7,000 so if you are a dinker don't show up, go play some municipal course. This course demands respect and in order to that, bring a respectful game.
Stop mowing while we are golfing
This course is very nice but the people mowing were mowing the grass while we were trying to play the same hole they were mowing on. At one point I had to run up to my ball yelling at him not to mow over my ball. Then after that we played the back nine while this same guy was following us hole by hole and mowing every hole we were trying to play . We teed off at 7:40AM so we could have a nice day but this was completely ruined by trying to dodge the guy on the mower. Complained to the club house afterwards and all he said was sorry about that...thanks for nothing. We will not be coming back and we play a lot of golf. You lose.
Condition & course laying out
Very nice course laying out specialy front nine and need course management.I really enjoyed playing like this.
My Favorite Course
Links type course with lots of elevation changes.Two holes(8&11)have forced carries over a quarry which runs thru the layout.Fairways and greens are generous size,but beware of fescue that runs thru the course.Play the proper tees and enjoy.Play the wrong tees and pay the price.Greens are getting faster and the course is in impeccable condition.I could play here seven days a week and never get bored.
Excellent Value!
This course offers an excellent value. Links to its truest extent. Nice range, chipping and putting. Great staff and course plays very true and challenging.
Bring lots of balls if you aren’t hitting fairways and greens but that is why you play links.
Will play this course again soon
One of Best Courses in Western Suburbs
Worth the drive, great challenging layout, well maintained.
Good conditions and value
Play here 8-10 times a year
Always in great condition
Solid test
Played in under 4 hours
(3:40)
Must play
Bad 'ole Keith Foster designed the front 9 and his former assistant Art Schaupeter designed the back. The course only loses marks for poor walkability. I'm sure the routing was influenced by the desire to spread out the 4 quarry holes across the 18. The beautiful par 3 7th is the highlight of the quarry holes, but there are many memorable holes besides these. Centerline bunkers, fescue, and fairway bunkers make the tee shots more challenging than most approach shots and greens. Great value for the quality.
Great course and great facilities
I love highlands of Elgin Course. It’s as good as some of the private courses I play.
Still wet
although temp was good, grounds were very wet, cart path only...everything else was good to excellent ...definitely will be back when dryer conditions prevail...
