Arlington Lakes Golf Club
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.

Good start to my season
Not a bad course, plays a little slow because you are forced to play with 4 people. Course was in good shape and the weather could not have been better.
Penal
Short but not easy. Some real narrow holes with drives and approaches that are quite simply too penal for mid to higher handicaps. Its April so not unusual for green and tee boxes to be rough as they were. That said, we played Old Orchard day before and conditions were far superior. Some greens were full of pockmarks. Id pass
Slooooowwwww
Pace of play is horrendous and the staff could care less. Called it quick after 4 hours and 13 holes.
Note the course is also in a surprisingly bad condition. Tee boxes and greens were a mess, also a lot of bald spots.
Just enough water and traps
Good walking course. For the young and the old. Beginners and long time player. Just a little on the short on the yardage
Golfnow and Arlington Lakes golf course let me down
It was lightly raining and the golf course said they were not letting anyone out. They said they would not give me a rein check or refund my money because i used Golfnow. I could not get ahold of Golfnow to cancel so I am out my money because neither one of them care about customers apparently.
layout made it fun
need to be straight ,first time for me i enjoy it putting greens were a challenge i will be back for now on
Enjoyed the golfing
The course was in excellent shape, the weather was perfect and the ranger was very pleasant to work with. I found the pace of play was just right. Great deals for us golfers using the Golf Now site.
The club house and the worker were easy to work with.
Take advantage of the great locale golf course. I also enjoy the par 3 Nichol knoll.
Great course
I will play this course again..one can easily score three straight birdies...twice!
Nice Course
Everyone looks at the total yards and makes the comment, short course. My response is come out and play and then let me know your thoughts.
It's a tough course and is challenging with their new design.
I like it a lot.
