On It's Way UP!

I played Chalet Hills yesterday and could not believe the difference in the shape of the golf course from last year. Apparently, the new owner is pushing the course back in the right direction. Greens were in nice shape - they were mowed nicely. The course could use some touching up, but the playability was great!

Avoid this course on weekends, weekdays are okay

Had a 1058 tee time and didn't finish until after 4pm. Chalet Hills is in very good shape, greens were excellent and the new management appears to be off to a good start. Problem is that high handicappers have no business playing this place and 5 hour rounds plus are routine. Course always slows down after the turn and you wait and wait for slow foursomes to splash multiple balls into water hazards (10 holes have water that is in play for them).

Course forced me to play many different shots

Chalet is always a challenge. I love having choices of what club to use and the risk reward factor is an option here. The course itself is beautiful with lots of different looks. The water is well placed and it goes well with the overall hilly style of the course. I really have no complaints about this place. Always a fun time!

GOOD SHAPE

Considering the harsh winter Illinois experience, the course was in good shape.Alot of workers on the course shows that they are trying to bring it back up to a quality track. The fairways were above average, the traps need more attention and the greens were in good shape.All in all, I would recommend this course to anyone.

Great course for the $$$

Course conditions were phenomenal for this early in year. Best in this area. Play was slow, but I blame that on the beautiful day. Everyone was out playing! Great course. Will be back

Great Course !

Played in the Fall, Trees were stunning to look at, scenic views from atop the Hills. Challenging greens, for sure, but all in all a fair course to play.

Nice challenging course

The course has many tight driving holes. Also have a few holes with blind tee shots. I would say a good mixture of tough and easy holes. It rained for a couple of days before I played the course and the course was still in good condition.

Great challenge; back nine nonstop.

Good design. All you want-water, sand, hills, doglegs and greens surrounded by water. Nice double green on 9 & 18 with the holes playing around opposite sides of a large pond. Lack of GPS made first visit tough on water carries & layups.

Nice Course

Not a top notch course, but one worth playing. It has a little of everything from bunker lined fairways, water, and substantial rough. The course was in decent shape for a public course, nothing too special. Overall I would recommend.

Excellent, difficult course. It would have merited 5 stars except the greens were a little beat up and the sand traps were in poor condition.

Great course

For late summer course was in good shape. The greens were a bit chewed up, but all in all a good course. One suggestion. They need to mark the fairways better with yardages

great water holes

Starts out with three warm up holes and then bang, game on!! Plenty of water holes! The only complaint was no drinking water on the course.

Nice layout needs some repairs.

Great layout, back nine is tough and requires well placed tee shots. However, this course needs some work or money tossed at it to be above others. Some fairways have issues and way to many unfixed divots. My understanding is this is now bank owned and for sale at a great price...

What a great value

The course was in phenomenal condition, and played very difficult. At twilight we virtually had the course to ourselves. We very much enjoyed the experience, and will definitely be back again.
