East at White Pines Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
White Pines Golf Club is ideally situated for both locals and visitors with a convenient location that is just 30 minutes from downtown Chicago and only 10 minutes from O'Hare International Airport. The club has two 18-hole courses, the East and the West. The East is the shorter and more player friendly of the two at 6,371 yards from the back tees. The fairways are seemingly narrow but there is some room for recovery if you have an errant shot. There aren't as many bunkers or water as on the West Course, but there is enough to provide a fun round. In addition to 36 holes of golf, White Pines G.C. also offers the Golf Dome, one of the world's largest indoor golf facilities. It features five target greens surrounded by bunkers, 50 hitting tees on two levels, and six suspended hitting targets for practicing your accuracy.

I challenge you to get a better golf value within 25 miles of downtown Chicago
Great layout Friday afternoon 3some $25 a guy to walk on a great course. Pace a bit slow but still finished in 4:15. Maybe Preserve at Oak Meadow is first in terms of value, but no need to drive far away to play a solid course for a good rate.

White Pines West Course
Three friends and I played the West Course Yesterday. It was 96F at the hottest part of the day and the course was in excellent condition. I used to play the course 35 years ago and some days back then, the ball would roll forever on the hard, dry fairways. The only thing that took some getting used to were the carts that automaticallyturned off when you went somewhere you were not supposed to be, such as too close to the green (understandable) or into the tree line to follow my ball ( a little annoying). But, since golf is about the whole experience and the cart thing was only a small part of that experience, we will go back again a couple more times this summer. Our foursome teed off at 10:30 AM and finished in just about 4 hours, even though we backed up starting on 16.
Your feedback is important to us, botonist86. Thank you for sharing your 5-star experience. We look forward to seeing you again at the course soon! Thanks for choosing East at White Pines Golf Course.

Great Local Course
This is a great local course that should see more play, but I'm happy it does not. With social distancing and Coivid restrictions the course is being run and maintained very well. Many of the surrounding courses are charging premium prices, but White Pines has maintained regular pricing.

Not Super Fun
I tend to give the benefit of the doubt when it comes to course layouts and maintenance but today at White Pines was incredibly annoying. First, driving range down, not listed...then there are about four holes where the tee boxes are placed directly behind a tree, so you have to hit a snap hook or cut just to hit the fairway. It was ludicrous. The tree maintenance is one of the worst I’ve ever seen, you can be in the fairway and have branches blocking you from 100in. Just a very frustrating track.
You think that being over 6000 the back tees would be good. What you don’t realize is that They’re squeezing out the yardage from every par 3 playing 200.
Greens were in great condition, however they were pretty slow. Staff was nice. Carts with GPS is great. Just need some major tree maintenance here.
