Gary Player at Geneva National Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Geneva National Golf Club boasts three championship courses, each with a notable designer: Gary Player, Arnold Palmer, and Lee Trevino. All three courses sit along the shores of Lake Como and were carved from lush, rolling countryside. The Gary Player Course, along with the Palmer Course, provides the greatest challenges and also some of the best scenery. Water hazards come into play on 12 holes in the form of wandering streams and large lakes. One of the most memorable holes with water is the par-3 16th. There is a lake that wraps almost entirely around the green, giving it the feel and difficulty of an island green. In addition to the water, golfers will also have numerous strategically placed bunkers to contend with. The club is popular with locals but also with visitors since it is only a short drive from metropolitan Chicago and Milwaukee.

Love the nature and conditions at Geneva Nationa
Excellent value via GolfNow
Played the (Gary) Player Course
…excellent conditions, a little windy, but like a nature preserve
Fall weather in August
From the waiter in the restaurant to the starter to the cart service, everyone was friendly and welcoming. Course was in overall very good shape. Greens were fast. We were even treated to some wildlife on back 9. A wonderful day on the course. Can’t wait to come back!!
Snail Pace
Snail pace for 18 holes on a Friday. Rangers have no enforcement of pace of play. Followed a 7-some.Stay away on weekends!!
Geneva National Gary Player
Course conditions were fantastic, not a blemish on the course. Layout is fun, extra par 3/5 works great for playing but hurts length of play. Lots of waiting on par 3’s then getting caught up and waiting on par 5’s.
Getting cart was confusing, they couldn’t find my cart/name and they young girl said “it should be obvious” not very pleasant. She ended up giving em a cart with no name placard because mine was not found. No big deal, but I’m not an idiot young lady.
Pace of play on Monday was terrible, no marshal once. Then when teeing off Wednesday as a 3, starter said we need to get going so I let him know we are 3 and we will not be behind and that Monday we waited all day and nobody was working the course for pace of play.
Of course we waited on hole #2 and then on out.
Gos on carts were way off starting on hole 10. I met marshal know. Marshal was kind and pleasant all day Wednesday and it was still a fun round.
Bar and cart staff and 9 hole (Sedona) were all fantastic.
We will see you again, thanks for the awesome maintenance and layout.
five and a half hrs and still 3 holes to play
It was hot and humid and there was an outing ahead of us. The round took 5 1/2 hrs to play 15 holes. We left. No idea what the groups ahead of us were doing, but it wasnt playing golf. People should know better.
Challenging course but fair with friendly and courteous staff.
Played here for 30 years even when it was only 9 holes. Golf Now does offer some good deals but generally the prices here are out of hand. A number of holes on the Player course need stairs in the terrain to speed up play.
Gary Player Course, 10/10
Had a blast golfing here. Good pace of play, great course conditions, beautiful course.
Will play again :)
Player course
Amazing experience! First time at Geneva national. Plan to make this a regular trip.
Fun and challenging course
Geneva National Player course is a fun and challenging course. Some holes with Lake view make it much more special too.
