Great Value Course
Carillon is an excellent value course. It has the length you would want if you are a longer hitter but has tees forward enough for any golfer. It was early in the season but some of the greens are in rough shape where I moved my ball so that I had a true line.
A good overall course for the average duffer.
The course is always in good condition and the people friendly. An enjoyable everyday couse.
Good start for the year
It was a lot of fun, the course was good for having that long winter
The course is very nice.
The greens rolled true and the layout had challenges but was not too difficult. Really enjoyed the day.
Great track, great condition.
Carillon was in great shape and greens were not aerated yet. The golfnow price was terrific.
has three good nine's
very nice layout and challening play, could use more directional signs as to next hole
the course is a great layout
course is in great shape and i love the layout. the holes are just the right length.
Not thrilled
Haven't played this course in a few years and it used to be very nice, but it definitely has dropped off. Greens were full of ball marks and many putts were knocked off line. Sand traps are like playing off gravel they were so hard. I understand that traps are difficult, but to be unable to take sand in a green side bunker is unfair.
This may seem like piling on, but keep the tee times going off as scheduled. If I have a 9:20 tee time, don't send me out at 9:15 because the tee is clear. We shouldn't come to the third hole and be 3 groups deep and then inch along for the rest of the day .
Can't beat it for the price. Also great in the fall due to limited trees.
I have never been dissapointed playing here plus I got a hole in one so that never hurts.
Layout great! Greens need work.
Overall the layout is a really nice one. Appeasing to the eye and well manicured. The greens were bumpy, slow, and full of ball marks. Good putts were short and off-line due to bouncing. It was hard to make putts to say the least. Frustrating!
Great pace of play on a Sunday in the Chicago area
The course was in very good shape. If there is any issue, it is mainly with the bunkers. Some greenside bunkers had too much sand, others had no sand. Fairway bunkers typically had no sand.
It was a pleasure to play in 4 hours and 5 minutes on a Sunday. Any more Chicago golf has become a 5 hour proposition.
well maintained greens
Carrillon has a good maintained course. Staff is friendly, and pace of play is well regulated. They should have more hot deals available online if they want more exposure to the public.
Nice course
Not a long course. Lot of shorter par 4's. Course was in good condition but more than a few greens had non repaired divot marks. Staff was friendly but we didn't interact with them too much. My only complaint was pace of play. My twosome was stuck behind people all day. We would wait at each tee box for 3-5 minutes just waiting for the players ahead of to tee off. They were waiting for the people before them. It didn't seem like there were a lot golfers there but we were all bunched up. Seemed odd this would happen at a course with 27 holes.
Great Value / Friendly Service
I've played Carrilon since it's opening....almost every year. Took a year off last year. This summer the tees/fairways and sand traps are in very good shape....the greens while maintained (I didn't have to repair many ball marks) were fairly bumpy and slow in comparison to other courses in the area....thus the overall average rating. Would be 4 stars but the greens and the generally flat land.....lots of dirt was moved to build this course bring it down a notch. The Links are absolutely worth a visit at least once a year and with the green fee of $25 via golfnow it's a very good bang for your golf buck.....play can be very slow on weekends and we were lucky to play during the week and caught a gap in the tee sheet....but were still slowed by a 4-some on back nine....and our 4 hr round would have been close to a 5 hr round if we had teed off directly behind this group.
Nice course. Very good condition. Great price!!
Very nice close-in course. Always enjoy playing this course.
Fits My Game
I sprayed the ball today and scrambled to shoot 79. The course has some holes that you can get away with an erant tee shoot
3 sets of 9 holes to play...neat variety
nice course, nice staff. front 9 (red course) nice section with good variety of holes and challenges. back 9 (white course) is pretty challenging with some nice holes and a great finishing hole called the gauntlet! would play definitely again!
Course is always well maintained
Links of Carillon always looks great. The entire complex is well maintained. However, many of the carts didn't have GPS, and those that did looked like it was jerryrigged. I have to assume that the are doing a conversion to new carts or a new GPS system. Also, there were numberous fresh ball marks on the greens. Come on, golfers, fix your marks! The group ahead had two walkers. I'm not sure what they were thinking because they would walk on a 90 degree from their ball then walk down the cart path. They walked a lot longer than they needed to, and this naturally slowed them down. After their 4th holes, they were walking a more direct path to their ball.
Really nice shape.
These guys keep their three nines in really nice condition. The weather has helped them, too. We played the Blue course; nine holes.
The course was uncrowded and played fast. We only played nine this day, but it plays fast most days. The price is right, too.
Great Golf Facility
I've now played all three of Links courses at Carillon. All three were in great shape and well taken care of. A few of the bunkers could have used some TLC but other than that, I have no complaints. A fair course with some challenging holes. Sand haters BEWARE!
