About
Prairie Landing Golf Club has received acclaim ever since first opening in 1995, including a four-and-a-half-star rating from Golf Digest. This West Chicago course will make you feel as though you've been transported to a seaside links course in Ireland. The prairie-style layout closely follows the tradition of classic links golf courses. Robert Trent Jones II designed the course, fully utilizing the rolling terrain. He incorporated large, undulating greens and rolling bent grass fairways. Vast swaths of native grasses stretch along the fairways and strategically placed bunkers frame the greens. There is also contoured mounding to contend with. The golf course finishes with a memorable par 5 that features fairway bunkers on the left followed by a carry over a lake to a well protected, high bowled green. Prairie Landing also boasts a practice facility that includes a driving range with target greens, four practice holes, and a nine-hole chipping and short-game area.

Great course for the price
A great links style course for the price. Greens and fairways were in immaculate shape for a public course. No punches greens yet as of today. Layout is a little funky but I enjoyed the holes overall.
Unique course
Beautiful course that's very well maintained. Located right next to a small airport and we had planes landing right over our heads which was pretty neat. Have been coming here for years and haven't had an unpleasant round yet. Highly recommend.
Conditions and pace
Pace wasn’t a big issue. Caught a log jam on 11 -15. 17 and 18 the 2-some in front was slow. Saw a ranger few times.
Conditions were good - green had humidity so they weren't as fast as i’ve seen in the past. Always a fun place to play.
Great course
The course was in excellent condition and challenging when it needed to be. Would definitely recommend for anyone.
Great deal at a superb course
Love love love this course! Only problem was pace of play. Got stuck behind a 3some that I just couldn’t pass. 4 hour round as a single? Anyway beautiful day and very nicely laid out course. Greens were in great shape and bunkers full. Highly recommended.
Pace
5 hour round on a weekday. Fun course but lots of waiting around.
Course in great shape
Prairie Landing was in as good a shape as I have ever seen it. Hats off to the grounds keepers!
Optimal Conditions!
Having played this course since it opened, I have to say it is in the best shape that I have seen it in years!! Considering all the rain other courses can’t compare to the shape the course is in.
The staff was great and very accommodating and friendly!
Pace was great considering we teed off at 900 and finished in 4:30 by no fault of the course.
Miss playing this gem I would highly recommend getting out and playing it!!
