About

Holes 18
Type Public/Municipal
Par 68
Length 5432 yards
Slope 122
Rating 66.0

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.

Ehhh…

Tight little course. Fairway was narrow miss to the left you hit a car miss to the right your in the water. It’s. Well kept golf course just not for me. To make it worst you have to play as a foursome and got paired with drunk/high that shank at every tee box. The course is beautiful and well kept just not a fan of narrow courses.

Short and Nice

Great short course for seniors. Course is 5400 yards well maintained and the best staff of any course in the area. Joe the starter did an excellent job of getting us off on time and then a woman starter (sorry forgot her name) handled the rain delay perfectly, getting everyone back on the course in order. I said it before and I'll say it again this course is run by top management. All employees are working together to make your round the best it can be.

Love the Challenge of this narrower coarse. Target golf called for.

Fun and close by for good golf and wonderful value. Lots of water and bunkering round greens. Great rest of golf on a shorter track.

Nice course for the money

I've played here a few times, like 6 or 7. It's nice, not super challenging. Pretty well maintained for a course that gets as much play as it does. Not much length, but enough to make you hit a driver on most of the par 4's. I like it, wish they would water the greens a bit more, bouncing 8 irons over a couple of them.
