Tamarack Golf Club

Teed off just before 5 hoping to get in all 18 holes. Rain storm had passed through just before so the course was saturated, but still in really good shape. The wet fairways probably helped keep a few stray drives from rolling into the water.
We played the black tees which seemed pretty far forward that day but still left some challenging shots. the golds would certainly make the course much more difficult. Greens, tees, and fairways were in good shape. Made it around in about 3hrs with out really having to wait or feel like we were being pushed with groups in front and behind us.

Overall, pleased with course condition, greens putted true and receptive to approach shots. Pace of play could have been managed better. I will play again.

WE TEED OFF AT 130 PM AND DIDNT GET DONE UNTIL 6. SPOKE TO THE PRO SHOP TWICE ANS NOTHING WAS DONE. NOT ONCE IN THE 5 HOURS ON THE COURSE DID I SEE A RANGER. ITS A SHAME BECAUSE THE COURSE IS IN GREAT SHAPE.

Course does its best to maintain the grounds but, needs a refresh/update.

Good course! Pretty easy for the novice golfer. Pepsi products tho; they need coca cola.

The prices would make you think it should be a five star golf course, but I hesitate to even give it two. The pace of play was horrendous. Nearly 3 hours to play nine, we didn't even bother to play all 18. I've seen cheap public courses in better shape that this one. The tee boxes were awful. The fairways were also pretty bad, and it was some of the patchiest rough I've ever seen. The greens were in fair condition and rolled pretty true. Fairly easy course with boring holes that offer very little excitement or fun. Most certainly not worth the extremely high prices. Never again.

The course was in great shape for all the rain we have had lately. Carts were fast and very clean. The guy at the counter was none too friendly. Took my money and that was about it. I had to ask where the carts were and if it was okay for me to go ahead and tee off.

Very nice course that that runs through a neighborhood. Not a lot of water and large fairways make it easy to keep your bad drives in play. Only downside is no driving range or short game practice facility other than a large practice green. Still a friendly staff and not too expensive for a Naperville course. Will play again.

Absolutely horrible. Didn't even finish my round. Pace of play was terrible. The conditions were awful. Tee boxes were sloped and not maintained. Greens the same. Just so bad. Stay away everyone, stay away!

I've been playing Tamarack since 1998. The greens were excellent, as always. However, the rest of the course was terrible. Tamarack has regressed to the point of being a dog track, This used to be one of the best courses in the area. Tamarack has done a lot of outings in the past. Now, there were bare spots throughout the fairway. Bunkers had a minimal amount of sand. Some basic maintenance is needed. Then, the course setup was too easy. I've always played the black tees and that was a good test for me. The par 3s were set up at their listed distance. However, the par 4s were about 30 yards shorter than on the scorecard. 10 is listed as a 530 yard par 5. It was playing at about 450. 12 is listed as 570, it was playing around 480. Oh yeah, The guy in the pro shop didn't seem like he wanted to be there. So, the only positive was that the greens were in great shape. I don't expect to play here again.

Sr rate of $28 enticed me to visit Tamarack which I had not played in many years. Overall, well worth the trip as greens were quite fast and well maintained. Yes, there were remnants of weeds here and there but they had been addressed and sand traps had proper amount of sand for shot that was needed. I would suggest that club place 100, 150, and 200 yard stakes on right side of fairway as GPS not on carts. Lunch sandwich with fountain drink for $5 a nice touch rather than the old hot dog routine. Play the middle tees unless you can really hit a good tee ball - the slope rating of 130 for 6023 yards gives you a hint of what awaits you.

Front 9 - very easy
Back 9 - a killer ... lots of sand and water ... LOTS OF FUN and a decent challenge ...

I couldn't believe how many weeds were on the fairways.

This course used to be a very good course. With its numerous water hazards, it has a challenging lay-out. In recent years, the management has let this place down. The fairways are in terrible shape. It has not been fertilized, seeded or weeded for many moons. The greens are in fair condition. That is the only 'good' thing I can say about this course. I am sure the management will blame the winter for the course conditions. But all you have to look at are the backyards of the houses lining the fairways... they are in great shape. Poor, poor care and management.

The course was in good condition, especially for early in the golf season. Greens were rolling well. Overall good experience.

Sand traps were well maintained with actual sand in them. Tee boxes mostly in bad shape. Fairways very thin on grass. Greens did not hold any kind of a wedge shot, very hard

Course in bad shape. Fairways were dead in many places and greens very slow. Cheap and no one around so played alone in less than 3 hrs.

The course is nice and the staff is friendly. Only negative is the pace of play. Tee times should be farther apart, and they really need to have rangers to keep things moving. We were stuck behind a threesome, couldn't hit farther than 150 yards, but insisted on hitting from the gold tees. Also stopped to look for their lost balls despite having three groups backed up behind them.

Great looking course, only played nine of my 18. Really windy and cold. I am wondering if it's always that windy. I would go back again anytime!

I'm a . 12-13 handicap. There are large fairway bunkers on every hole. . Very large bunkers protecting every green . If you don't hit a lot of greens or fairways (which is basically 95% of golfers) it could be a long day. Fairly long course from the black tees just in front of the championship tees. Also there are a lot of tight fairways with water on multiple holes. Not a fun course for the average golfer looking to build some confidence. All in all a pretty good course just challenging
