About
Ever since opening in the mid '90s, Arlington Heights Golf Club has been considered one of the best par-3 golf courses in Chicagoland. It is certainly one of the most unique with three holes that feature vertical-drop tee shots and two holes with uphill tee shots to the green. Although this nine-hole course is only 1,163 yards the large bentgrass tees and greens provide the feel of a full-length course. The layout has nearly 30 bunkers strategically placed throughout and water comes into play on two holes. From the elevated tees you can enjoy a panoramic view of the area, including stunning vistas of the Chicago skyline. Whether you're a beginner looking to get some practice or a scratch golfer who wants to get in a quick round, Arlington Heights Golf Club is a fun and challenging option.

Possibly best par 3 in Chicagoland
A really manicured course. Country clubesque The greens need to fill in a bit. Scenic hills. Just perfect for some fast exercise and quick recreation.
Best par 3 golf in Chicago?
Fun par 3 . Very scenic. Very good condition. Nice guy working the desk. Hard to judge the best par 3 w/o playing them all but this is definitely in the running. Early in season not too busy so a fast play.
Good value.
The wind was gusty and relentless. Course was in pretty good shape, but the greens were slow because of a fresh layer of sand.
Great course with great people
The staff is always friendly and this course is perfect for a beginner like me. It has helped my short game and putting immensely. I will continue to play here.
Great work out
I play here because of a number of factors:
The course is challenging enough to keep me coming back.
Every time that I have been paired with other players it has been a pleasant experience.
Very helpful and friendly staff.
See ya Monday...
Bear down on a great course
It’s bar far par 3 course in the area! It’s a wonderful little 9, no cart needed!
