The Preserve at Oak Meadows

This is a fun, challenging and well conditioned course. Greens were a little slow but receptive. My only complaint is too many “ding dongs” on the cart for advertising and coming in to a restricted area.

This track was challenging and very well maintained. You felt like you were at w private club. I can't wait to play it again.

Only feedback is to stagger tee times upfront. There was a rather long frost delay to get started. Other than that pace of play was excellent, and the course was in great shape!

First time playing here! The pace of play for myself as a single was three hours! I’m sure it being 47’ helped. Overall great experience, none of the on course food options were open when I initially started but otherwise it was a fun tough course.

For $100 a pop, I would have expected better green conditions. Fairly chewed up.

Great layout and in great shape. The pro shop personnel are top notch despite a below average range. Typically I do not play on and support facilities that are municipal owned courses. Better places like Cantigny, Mistwood, Saint Andrew’s and Dubsdread don’t require taxpayer subsidies to run their operations., yet they have top notch courses and practice facilities. I like supporting the Capitalists behind these types of open to the public golf courses. The Dupage Forest Preserve taxing entity took over a failed private facility and spent tons of taxpayer money to enhance the course and build a beautiful new restaurant/bar/clubhouse that bureaucrats benefit the most from with discounts. If you like that type of Socialism, have at it.

Last issue is that at the turn there is a backup and the ranger told us we would have to turn in our cart at dusk even if we are on 16/17. They did not tell us that when we paid our $70 (twilight). Having a couple workers work after dark when we finish the round should not be an issue.

Anyways, I commend the greens keepers and pro shop staff who are top notch and are paid as municipal workers thanks to the taxpayers of Dupage County.

Maple Meadows is another Dupage Forest Preserve Course righ across the street. Also good people and layout, a bit cheaper as less premier but better to play Saint Andrew’s or Cantigny for the dough and to support Capitalism!

You can play at Bloomingdale for cheaper and it has better course conditions. Only way I play here is for less than $50, not worth it otherwise.

The course was in terrible condition. , pace of play was ehhh , unfortunately they think they are something more than they really are. I will not be back. Take that $400 and put it to the course not the clubhouse.

Awesome course setup. Every hole is expertly crafted and maintained, and seems unique compared to the other holes. Very fun and strongly recommend.

Just played this course and conditions were not even close to par for the cost to play. Most of the fairways were good and the bunkers were excellent, but the condition around the greens and many tees was poor. The fringes around many greens were burned out with crusty dead grass. Some of the greens even had some burned out areas and some of the tees were also hacked up and in bad shape.

It is sad to see the great job that was done with the recent renovation wasting away in important maintenance areas of the course. Unacceptable conditions for a higher-end golf course.

It's a great layout. Course was in marginal condition. There were many bare spots around the greens.. May of the greens also had dirt rather than grass near the edges. Many of the tees were pretty chewed. Following golf, the service in the clubhouse was terrible The bartenders are pretty clueless. This was also the case the last time we played there. Had one cocktail and left. It's a shame as the layout is one of the best in the area, but it certainly is being maintained or operated like a high end facility.

The Preserve at Oak Meadows is one of my favorites in the Chicago area. Beautiful layout, well maintained and challenging. It is more expensive than most courses in the area, no doubt. But if you are looking for an exceptional golf experience, I recommend Oak Meadows.
