Rating 70.0

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.

Consistency

Schaumburg Golf Club is always a great place to play. The course is very well kept, having 27 holes keeps things fresh, and the staff is always very friendly. Our go-to spot in the NW Burbs.

Love playing here

Staff and grounds crew do a fabulous job keeping this course in a great shape. Pace of play was a little slow but multiple times the ranger came by trying to keep everyone moving along. It was expected for a Saturday. Will be back soon.

Aeration, Beware! Otherwise great track

Played 9 on the Tournament Course. Starter said they aerated 3 weeks ago but it’s still really rough… especially 7-9 were so bad it’s almost impossible to make a putt outside 4 feet

Otherwise course is sweet and I’ll definitely be back next year

Great layout. Fair yet challenging. 4 stars -

One of the better public course options in Chicagoland. The layout is great and fairways and tees are in good shape. 4 stars because greens are beat up, the range is Mat only, and it’s on the higher price range for public golf (~$100)

One of the 9s were recently aerated so the other courses are seeing heavier traffic.

Course condition and amenities

The course was in great shape. Little to no rain in past several weeks but it was not noticeable. Carts, bathrooms and clubhouse are all in great condition. The 2nd par 5 on tournament is probably my favorite hole.

This course should’ve remained private

I tried getting my dad and his buddies to play here and because I work at the Park district I thought my discount would work for everyone and unfortunately it did not so they had the pay the whole fee which ended up being pretty expensive. At first glance the course looks great, it’s easy to get too and the parking lot is plenty big. The staff is pretty helpful getting you to where you need to play because there is 3, 9-hole courses and actually we had a problem with a walker getting confused on what hole he was on… the golf carts are definitely worth adding to the fee however for the price I thought the greens were pretty beat up, there were divots and little pieces of rubble and sand all over the place. I thought the bunkers were very nice and the fairways looked clean however the tee boxes as well were in bad shape. Overall this is somewhere I can come after work and play because they have all the amenities as far as the range and practice putting green but as far as bringing groups here I would stay away definitely over priced.

What a great course

I haven't played Schaumburg for years and it was great coming back. Since I last played here, the course has been totally upgraded. It is tough but beautiful with open fairways and firm and fast greens. I actually had my only hole-in-one here in 1999!! I highly recommend giving it a try, especially if you can get a Golf Now deal like we did ($44 plus cart). I'm looking forward to playing here regularly in the future.

Enjoyed a fun morning

Excellent and well kept course provided a very enjoyable experience. Well kept and managed by great staff. Our foursome had a wonderful time on a challenging course which is playable for all levels and would highly recommend it for a fun day or group outing. I had my best round of the year!

It's nice.

Played 9 holes on the Players course. They totally replaced the greens a few years ago. But they could have made additional improvements. The green on the 1st hole slants away from the player which makes it very difficult to hold the green. After the 4th hole, it's a very very long walk to the 5th hole which is not a problem if you have a cart. But, many people walk it. They should have found a better way to re-number the holes. The 5th, 6th, 7th and 9th holes are really fun to play. 8th hole is very very plain. Overall, it's just my opinion that they should have made the rest of the holes more interesting.

The tees, fairways, green are very good.

Great golf staff & fantastic course

Each staff member was friendly and helpful. It makes a fun day golfing even better when you’re treated well.

I love this golf course. It is challenging and fair. I was in two sand bunkers today but was able to make clean shots because they are built well (soft sand; not hard, inconsistent or wet). I also like that they have a 9 hole and 18 hole option to encourage you to play even if you only have a couple of hours. 9 hole score:40

Disappointed with the greens

I have always liked this course, but for some reason on this day, the greens were in the worst condition I have ever seen. There were unrepaired ball marks everywhere. It was hard to roll a putt without it bouncing, many times off line. The greens were in need of repair as well as being cut and rolled. The rest of the course was in great shape.
