Schaumburg Golf Club - Tournament/Players Course
About
Schaumburg Golf Club is a 27-hole layout that has hosted the U.S. Open Qualifying and Illinois Open Qualifying tournaments as well as numerous other events since it first opened in 1928. The course is divided into three nines: the Tournament, Players, and Baer. Each course has a different character but one characteristic they all have is the undulating terrain. All three golf courses also boast well manicured tees, greens, and fairways. The nines are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The Tournament/Players course features the most water of the three combinations. The par-4 fifth hole on the Tournament nine has a particularly tricky forced carry over a large pond. In addition to the golf courses, Schaumburg has a practice facility that includes a driving range and two putting greens.

Hidden gem
This is one of the best facilities in NW suburbs. It gets no publicity but conditions are like a private country club a must play in the srea
Thankful
The course was in beautiful condition. But most importantly, I left my phone in the cart and when I called the pro shop, they were empathetic and sent out the search party. They called me back as soon as they found it and I picked it up soon after. Good people.
Great Course and even after heavy rain the course still playabke
John Parson & his team always working hard to keep this course a golden jewel in Illinois… This course and with its staff deserve a Western Amateur Opening.
Excellent as always
Staff is always very friendly and willing to help. Course was in good shape. Always a fun time golf there
Kicked out 7:30
Forget twilight here, cart constantly beeps at you for ~30 minutes before the course staff comes out and tells you to pick up your ball and bring carts in at 7:30 on the dot regardless of it not being dark out.
Great Park District Course
I played the Baer course (9 holes), and it was in great shape. The fairways rivaled those of much more expensive courses and the white-sand bunkers were immaculately maintained. The greens also were in good shape. This is much better than I would typically expect from a park district course. The main reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the course isn't well marked for yardage. My GPS app wasn't working, and I'm not familiar with this course, so I did a lot of guessing about distances. Some holes have small signs for 250 or 150 yards, others have them on the cart paths. Because I walked, I usually wasn't anywhere near the cart paths. They should put yardage stakes or discs at 250, 200, 150 and 100 yards that are easier to see.
great condition
course was in great shape; unfortunately this did not help my golf game :P
