Tamarack Golf Club

Good course to start out on. We went early and I brought my son to hit 9 with me. Friendly staff offered for us to start on 10! We were able to not be pushed or worry about pace as much with him.

Was hesitant about this place based on recent reviews. Played a Saturday morning round and found the course to be in totally fine condition. Sure, there are spots in the fair way that are ground under repair, but overall the course is well maintained and the greens were great. Despite the reviews about the bunkers, I found them to be totally fine. Will definitely play here again, great value for money.

Been there once, probably the worse golf course I ever played in my life.

This used to be one of the best public courses in the county. To bad the bunkers done have sand anymore. To bad the fairways have bare spots all over the place. And to bad no one seems to care.

The greens and tee boxes need some TLC. The supposed "sand traps" are atrocious!!

Many holes smelled like they have been irrigating with sewage water.

A decently challenging course, with decent fairways. The tee box, sand traps and greens are in very rough shape, I didn’t see and sand throughout my 18, just dirt and mud. Tee boxes are all scattered with an unclear labels and yardage, and looks like the tee boxes are repaired ever month, very torn up. same with the greens, so many divots and holes all over. I would say very overpriced, it felt like a cheap par 3 course just full size. I knew this coming in because all the reviews say the same. Won’t be coming back until they make some changes

This was my 2nd time playing Tamarack and I really like this course. The sand traps were bear and there was a few fairways that needed some love but other than that it was a great outing with my friends.

Oh and the staff was nice.

Might as well close it. Won't notice the difference.

Poor poor conditions

It’s clear that Arcis and management clearly do not care for this facility, but took the time to glam it up on the website. When playing the course, it is a literal goat track with deteriorated tee boxes, frequent bare spots in fairways, atrocious bunkers, and repugnant greens. The club house is a mess and outside of the friendly staff, this place is a dump. Charging $65+ during the weekend is criminal and I will not be back. Really disappointing given the surrounding neighborhood and Naperville area is really nice. Golfers deserve better.

The fairways throughout the course very chewed up. There were many bare spots and a number of areas that the ground was under repair.

There were numerous pitch marks on many of the greens. Many divots throughout the course weren’t filled. The course needs to have some serious work, put into it.

The course was on its way to improving and then all of sudden everything is torn up, sand traps still have no sand! It looks like the company who owns it Arcis doesn’t care!!

Tees and greens are in bad shape. The sand traps don’t have sand. The restaurant was under repair. The only upside is that I played well.

I played Tamarack Golf Club yesterday. The layout is actually enjoyable and the course has the potential to be a fun round, but unfortunately the conditions were very disappointing.

The tee boxes were in poor shape with dead grass, numerous bare spots, and it looked like many divots hadn’t been repaired in years. The bunkers were by far the biggest issue. Most had little to no sand, were essentially hard-packed dirt and rocks, and many were overgrown with weeds. Roughly a third of the bunkers still contained standing water, making them unplayable.

The greens were also struggling. They were very slow, bumpy, and in desperate need of maintenance. Fairways had large piles of grass clippings left behind after mowing, which affected both the appearance and playability of the course.

It’s unfortunate because the routing and overall design are enjoyable, but the lack of maintenance significantly detracts from the experience. I hope the ownership invests in improving course conditions, as Tamarack has the potential to be a much better course than what I experienced.
