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.

Monday Round

Course was in very good condition from tee boxes to greens. Greens were smooth and fast. Pace was great. We played 18 holes in about 3 1/2 hours and it was a good thing because it was a hot day.

Review & Request for credit

I had a great day, the course was in great shape and the staff was very accommodating, when my partner was a no show that sent me out alone and I was appreciative of other golfers who allowed me to pass by and eventually join them.

I tried to ask this in the App and haven’t received an answer so I’d like to try here. That day I reserved and pre-paid for two under my name John Walsh, unfortunately my partner had an emergency and couldn’t make it last minute. Is it possible to get a credit for one round?

Great time at Arlington Lake golf club

Went to play 18 this past Sunday afternoon and my foursome had a great time. Weather was great. Some holes were on the shorter side but the greens were fast so it made them tuff. Staff was great 👍🏽 . We will be back again.

In appropriate staff

I want to say the course is over priced for the value. But besides the point I booked last minute and spend $145 for a round and about $100 during the course and $70 in golf balls. In towards the last 11 a staff member rushed at us at almost frustrated and upset tone of our pace of play. I wouldn't ma a bid deal but my 11 year old son was with me and I had to say something as he was out of line and most importantly we finished the course in 3:48 minutes. Just a shame for staff member to ruin our experience and to top it all of the group behind us who was suppose to our four some cam late to course and after the incident the guy stepped up and through we should not have been there and over all turned and horrible experience for my son and me.

Short but Fun Fall Course

The course was in pretty decent condition but the greens were a bit of a mess. The course is very short but utilizes some decent hole designs to make things more challenging. It was a very nice looking course to play during the fall though and I enjoyed my round.
