West at White Pines Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

Disappointed
I played this course last Saturday. I made my booking for 18 holes through Golf Now. My receipt says 18 holes with cart. I got tp the course for an 8:45 tee time, check-in was great, everything was outside and it was quick. They sent me to the 10th tee to tee off which I thought was ok I was a single and maybe they wanted to get some players on the back 9 since it was still sort of early. I finished the back 9 and walked over to the ranger off the 18th green and asked him where the first tee was so I could continue my round. He told e I was done. I said I only played 9 so he sent me back to the check-in desk. At the front desk they told me I was only allowed to play 9 holes. There were a couple people on the practice green that walked over and said they had been doing this to everyone that finished the back 9. I was incredibly disappointed since I was under the impression I was going to play 18 holes. The course has done nothing to rectify this situation and it seems like they know they're ripping everyone off who books through golf now.
Says 18 holes
When booking this course the booking shows up for 18 holes and they only let you play 9 on the back nine
Hi jemaher3 it hurts us to hear about the poor experience you had with us. We take pride in customer service and it doesn't sound like you received our best. We would like the opportunity to learn more about your experience, and the opportunity to make this right. If you could email us at marketing@bvilleparks.org and include your contact info, we would love to hear from you.
The Absolute Worst Staff
Everything was fine until the back 9 when we had someone following us the entire round putting pressure on us even tho there were golfers right in front of us and we had to wait on every tee box and coming up to argue with us about how slow we were playing. It was honestly the most unprofessional staff I have ever been around on a golf course in the number of years I’ve been playing. I would not recommend this course whatsoever.
soggy in parts
Fun getting out for the first time this year, course is well laid out and play was not rushed. Very soggy on some holes and anywhere there was a depression there is water in it. We have had excessive rain the last few days is nothing could be done about that.
Thank you for taking the time to review us soxrme. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. East at White Pines Golf Course thanks you!

Great experience all things considered
With the amount of rain recently, the course managed pretty well with minimal standing water impacting play. Staff was great in accommodating a cart for my wife who is pregnant. Nice to see COVID precautions in place (no ball washers, pins stay in, no bunker rakes). I thought $30 was a bit steep for 9 holes but I was happy to be out there.
Hello, u314160050815. We are beyond happy to hear you and your wife enjoyed a great day at our course. Positive experiences make lifelong golfers. We look forward to many good times ahead with you and your wife to join us again.

Course has gotten even better.
Course is even better since they redone a bunch of the holes. Was a little wet when I played but I’m still not complaining since there was a tsunami of rain 2 days before. The staff was great as well considering I was using this crappy app and my tee time got all screwed up.

9 holes too short!
Thrilled to get out on the course. Only 9 holes were available for a reservation due to Covid 19 era. What a breathe of fresh air to get out and be amongst the beautiful trees and course.

The Back 9 of the East course was a lot of fun, very fair for play but hitting fairways is important
No Lost Balls, Greens were in pretty good shape, the fairways were really nice as was the pace of play 1 hour 45 minutes

Great Covid Course
They have it figured out. Super easy check in. Walk to first tee. Go play. We were never near anyone which is super important as my playing partner is immune suppressed.
So.... nothing fancy, just golf. Course was fine not great. Bot they are OPEN and ready for safe social distancing golf. GODSEND

East back nine
We played the east back nine and it was great. White pines is a pretty straight forward course. We ran into Jim, an employee at white pines, he was extremely helpful per always!
