Situated just 30 minutes from downtown Chicago, White Pines Golf Club has been a popular spot for both locals and visitors. The club offers two courses, the East and the West. The West Course is longer than the East by 400 yards and considered slightly more challenging. The layout is relatively tight and there is an abundance of trees, which means you'll need to be accurate to do well. The greens are large and challenging with difficult-to-read breaks. There is also minimal, but strategic bunkering along the greensides. The fairways provide plenty of variety with some that are narrow and heavily tree-lined and others that are wide with no trees in sight. The golf course has several challenging holes but it's forgiving enough for beginners to approach with confidence.

Two negatives. Slow play by group ahead of us that was allowed as no rangers in site until I called the clubhouse. It got much better after that but it should have been handled sooner and not taken a call by me.

#2, only saw cart girl once and when we did she was in the middle of the fairway blocking our lay up shots to a par 5. Better on course management needed at this course.

Good course for the money

Solid course. Playing from black tees gets you 6300+yards. Good layout. Back 9 on east course is challenging with a lot of water hazards. Hard to beat for $45 with a cart.

Great for a round at a reasonable price

The layout is tree lined parkland and pretty decent. It is a muni course, so not staying on the fairways can result in some bad lies and it is not perfect. But unless you are a near perfect golfer or can spend any amount on a round, maybe go play The Preserve in the area for a better experience

Played here twice so far this year. Very well priced and course in good shape. Only down side is driving range not open but that’s not a very big deal for me. Staff very polite.
