Cool par 3

There are two really cool par 3s over water. One is to a complete island green. Fairways are pretty generous and the rough is cut short so you can spray the driver a little bit. Greens are pretty big and putting can be challenging.

Amazing range, and incredible club house with a great bar.

The conditions Of the course we're below expectations. Several of the holes were badly damaged by people playing earlier in the day. Fairways and green were average public course conditions. Fine but not great.

retired superintendent

The course is tough but fair. In very good condition. The problems I had with my golf experience here are: 1) You have to walk alot even if you get a cart. The paths are twice as far away from the greens as normal on other courses, and they prevent you from driving up to the approach as normal stopping you from coming as close as 125 yards on a few holes. 2) We played behind a slow group which I know will happen. And was ok with it, but the ranger keeped coming up and explaining how he trying to hurry them. He came up so often it made us uncomfortable until I told him bluntly I don't mind they're not that slow.

CHICAGO'S BEST

This course is one of my favorites to go to. It is a true country club for the public. Everything about Bolingbrook is top notch from the practice facilities, to the fairways, to the halfway house, to the massive clubhouse. Tough course to play but no matter how bad I play, its always a great time at this course.

Played in 40 mph GUSTS

DIfficult course with the winds whipping around. Loved the course conditions, and frankly pace of play was fast since we were just a handful of dummies on the course. I have played at some of the top courses in IL and this ranks up there. Design is similar to White Deer. Will come back. Best to buy on a hot deal

Can't wait 'til it grows up

This course is beautiful and very challenging - and a stiff wind makes it very tough. It's in great shape (and I played it after a huge storm the night before) and I will definitely use it as a "gift" for all my good golfer friends. My only criticism is that it played very slowly. I'm sure that the fact that carts had to stay on paths or in rough added to the time factor, but it still took longer than it should on a course of its caliber. We waited on every tee after the 3rd hole and then had to wait for approach shots too.
I'll give it another try when it hasn't been impacted by weather because it is beautiful.

Father's Day Treat

Played this course on Father's Day, during a wind advisory. complimentary apples & lemonade on the 1st tee box. The Marshall's actually were very sympathetic to all golfers and their pace of play. The course was in great shape and challenging. And for it being Father's Day and as windy as it was, we still finished in 4 1/2 with a foursome. I will be going back to this course again!!!

First Class Course & Service

Normally would not pay the high fees to experience this course, but got a deal online and tried it. What a great course! More links style, but challenging. Perfect shape, true rolling greens with good pace of play. Club is first rate, service is there with private clubs. Only wish green fees were less! But, terrific course!

Nice course but wait for the deals

Overall this course is well maintained and has a fair layout. There is trouble on some of the holes but it's not ridiculously difficult. Traps were full of water but that was to be expected given the amount of rain the night before. Staff was very friendly and you can tell it gets a lot of play. I would wait for a deal as the $80-$90 regular price tag is a bit steep. I was able to reserve for $56 and was happy with the price.

Sort of a value

I enjoyed my round at Bolingbrook GC it could be improved if the cost was about $25 lower. Overall well kept up green slightly chewed up. We did have to wait on most shots but still a pleasant place to play.

Overall great course/club

This course has a great range and practice area. The course itself was very well maintained. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The clubhouse has great facilities and was well kept. Water is in play a lot and it plays tough but it's not an unfair course by any means.

Great Course All Around

Awesome course, fairways and greens were in great condition. Greens were a firm and fast but rolled true. Staff was AMAZING! I've played alot of courses all over the country but have never been treated as well as I was here! Greens fees are a bit steep but if you get the chance it's worth it.

Great Course if you get A Great Deal

Course is in excellent condition. In the Summer the Greens are hard and firm. Very hard to stop.

If you get a good deal on Golf Now then worth playing.

Only complaint is a lot of blind approach shots and the greens are slanted away from you and with the hard greens it is so hard to hold the green. And par 5 #3 is unfair. You need to lay up right of the green in the rough in order to have a fair shot into green.
