About
Located just northwest of Chicago, the Eaglewood Resort & Spa opened for play in 1932. It is a classic championship golf course, built during a time when the long drive was unheard of. The 6,017-yard layout seems short by today's standards, but the course still offers a formidable challenge. It features rolling fairways lined with century-old oak trees and wildly undulating, difficult-to-read greens with varying speeds that fluctuate depending on the weather, season, and even time of day. There are generous landing areas but they are bordered by deep, strategically placed bunkers that are just waiting to swallow even slightly errant shots. The carefully sculpted and plentiful bunkers are a prominent feature of the layout. Eaglewood's scenic landscape also has three lakes that come into play on eight holes.

Golfer Reviews
SAND FLAGS AND PIN POSITION ALL SUB PAR
There are sand traps (not all) in poor condition. There isn't the needed 2-4 inches of sand at the bottom needed to clear the high walls of the trap. Instead there is hard pan at the bottom of the trap.
The course fails to use red, white and blue flags to indicate pin position and there is no pin position number posted. You need to guess at the pin position unless you have a laser range finder.
Often the pin position is ridiculous. The pin is positioned so that short putts roll back down off the green.

Course is nice
The course is very nice and in great shape. The pace of play however was horrific. Basically 6 groups all bunched together and waiting on each other. Rangers could of got ahead of the problem, but it got worse as we played on.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Eaglewood Resort & Spa, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Great course, wild greens.
This course is challenging and full of interesting hole layouts. The greens and hole placement can be tricky. Having hole 17 as a Par 4 is a crime against beginning golfers and it’s HDCP as the 5th hardest hole is a 😉.
Highly recommend this course.
Nice course for the money
Nice course for the price that we paid. Pace of play was excellent. Short course with very difficult greens as the pin placements on the day that we played were in positions that were very difficult. Many elevated tees which made for picturesque views. The layout is a bit cramped as there are many spots where tee boxes and greens are situated close together. Overall worth the greens fee that we paid - $43 with a cart.
