Better than ever !

I have played Glendale Lakes many times over the last 20 years. The course is now in the best shape since the early 2000's.

Course doesn’t reflect price

Seems like they stopped caring about the course. I’ve played here many times and seems to just get worse and worse. It’s convenient for me as I live down the street but come on bunkers are never playable and tee boxes are just divots. Never a cart lady, staff is not the best either. Golf carts are old also. Sorry but if I’m paying 60+ dollars for a round, I’m expecting quality.

Hidden Gem

Glendale Lakes golf course is a gem in the Dupage area! Rates are very reasonable & the course is challenging & well kept up. If your out for a quick round or 18 this course will satisfy

Nice course

Nice course for the money. Some challenging shots, lots of blind shots, plenty of water in play. Greens in good shape. Its a tough play for your first time since there sre lots of hazards you won't know about. No yardage, so a range finder is nice to have. Park district is putting a lot of work into this course. I will definitely play again. Lots of houses along the course, so don't be too errant or you'll be getting a bill for a window.

June 11 2022 outing

I like the course layout in terms of challenge and variety of hole types.

The fairways and greens were in good shape.

The bunker state was unforgivable: basically every sand trap on the course was either under construction, had weeds or rocks, or had no sand at all...never have I seen a course in this state of disrepair charging full price.

Several of the tee boxes have overgrown trees that need trimming significantly hampering tee shots and angles. This was not a course feature, it was lack of basic maintenance.

Food menu very limited, hot dogs or brats and chips only, just FYI.

Pro Shop Guy Will Keep Me Away

I play 1st tees throughout the week. Not worth the trouble dealing with the jerk there. Wouldn’t unlock the door until 6:00, despite me waiting outside for 15 minutes. Warned me I couldn’t tee off til 5 after & threatened “no rain checks”. Insisted I hadn’t paid yet & I told him I had. He hadn’t even checked the system yet of course he was wrong. I’m always super polite. Will golf St Andrews, Bloomingdale’s, the other DuPage courses instead.
