Arlington Lakes Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Arlington Lakes Golf Club is situated amid the northwest suburbs of Chicago. Locals treasure the course as one of the area's hidden gems. At 5,331 yards from the back tees, this par-68 layout is on the shorter side but don't underestimate its level of difficulty. Besides the mature trees that frame many of the holes and 14 lakes that come into play, there are more than 100 strategically placed bunkers lurking throughout. The layout also features small, sloped greens that demand accuracy but you can take comfort in the fact that there are no doglegs. With strategic shot-placement and a bit of luck, there are some birdie opportunities available. The shorter length of the golf course will appeal to beginners but it's versatile for more advanced players to enjoy as well.

First visit
Nice track, i was not fooled by the shorter distance. My wife is a beginner and she felt the course was really friendly for someone at her skill level.
The course was in fine condition given it was first week in November. As expected, greens were being aerified so a little bumpy but still playable. Friendly staff, nice facilities, great price… overall great given the time of year. Will play there again,
Unfriendly staff
This was my first time at this course and I was disappointed right out of the gate. The tee time manager was extremely rude and not accommodating to our request. He was condescending to me and my 5 man team. He then proceed to braided us more and wanted to exert his “power” so he told us every rule we broke even before we started golfing, note: we were unaware of the rules we broke based on what the website told us, we apologized but it still wasn’t good enough so he kept going. Needless to say we will never go back again and I suggest this course to no one just based on the fact of how this one Individual treating us. What I will say is the gentleman maning the computers were extremely apologetic to us thus why we continued our 9 hole scramble. But again we will not go back until that gentlemen on the first tee is gone.

Fix that driver slice if you want to stay out of the Arlington Lakes. Majority of the holes had water on the right side of the fairway.

Good value quick pace
3:40 tee time they got us off at 3:20 as a threesome we jumped around a bit on front side but sailed 9 thru 18 then went back and played missed holes had the place to ourselves last 9 holes. Again staff very friendly fairways and tee boxes very good greens lots of ball marks….we just moved our balls an inch or two (not the PGA) and it was fine. 3 for 100.00 on Hot Deal for Saturday afternoon while Old Orchard was charging 85.00 per player🤣🤣🤣 twisted teas 2 for $5 bucks Miller lite or BL 16 oz 2 for $8.00. We will be back! Oh yeah played in 2:45 yeah baby!

I'd play there again
Relatively short course at a par 68. Played from the farthest tees, the tips. I'd recommend the place for seniors like me, for sure
Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is valuable, and we appreciate your business. Arlington Lakes Golf Club thanks you!
Why?
Why would you offer 18 holes plus cart @5:30 knowing the sun sets about 7:10? Arlington Lakes requires the carts be returned around 7pm. I got through 9 holes before having to return the cart. I’m still shaking my head.

Nice Course
Very nice course. It is shorter but it plays more difficult than the card would indicate. Course was in good condition, some of the tee boxes were rough but it looks like they were about to move them to better grass. Staff was very friendly and they had beverage carts going around. NIce restaurant and amenities, the only downside is no range, but there are a few places close you can go. Not just a knock on this course but people need to fix their ball marks. Arlington even passes out free tools, no excuse for the greens to look like a waffle iron. Again not the course's fault I'm sure they do the best they can fixing them.

AH Lakes does it again
The staff is not the most friendly and bully their objectives into your round. They are not customer first; that's how it always is at Arlington Lakes. They are losing customers for a reason; I for one have been turned off and came back again, but after this experience with the staff and everything, I will not be back.
