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.

Decent course for high handicappers
I’ve played this course quite a bit over the past few years. The reason I think it’s good for high handicappers is because it’s not very long and the holes are very straightforward. It’s not the best course in the world but it’s also not the worst.
Thank you for the awesome rating! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another great experience, and thanks for choosing Arlington Lakes Golf Club.

Arlington Lakes Golf Club
Multi million dollar renovation is impressive. Lots of ponds makes it a challenge to score well, but, forces one to concentrate more. It was very fun and enjoyable playing this course. Recommend it to anyone. I will play here again.

great condition
I hadn't played this course since before 1990.
I played it 06/28/2023. I was so impressed I played it again 06/29/2023.(I left my gps there the day before. I had to pick it up so I might as well play it again, right ?
Short course - 5432 from the tips. Don't let that fool ya. Water gets in your head. It comes into play if you let it. It's called Arlington Lakes for a reason.
With this drought condition, the course is in outstanding condition. Greens are green and rolling. Fairways are green and rolling. Bunkers play well. The cuts between the rough and fairway are sharp and well-defined.
Nice course and the 2 times I played, the course was not crowded and i played in under 3 hours.
Enjoyable rounds.
Go get some.

Fun little course
The course is short but takes accuracy. We played 18 in just under 4 hours on a Sunday. Friendly staff.
Nice course
Enjoyed this course. Not hard, but you have to to pay attention. A good course for hitting your irons.. No cart for drinks on the course.

Expecting more for the price
Not a good value for what you get. Other places nearby where $65 for 18 nets you better quality and friendlier staff. No one was rude but lack of energy from staff makes a difference for that type of money and hype provided.
Thank you for taking the time to review our course. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. We will share your insights with the appropriate staff. We look forward to welcoming you back at Arlington Lakes Golf Club soon.
For the price, go elsewhere
I live right by the course, played it throughout high school for our golf team, and have been here pre and post renovation. Let me make one thing perfectly clear: take your 57 dollars elsewhere.
This is not a 50+ dollar course under any circumstances. Most youth golfers that are somewhat decent could shoot under par here with a 7 iron only. The greens are never consistent. The staff is extremely hit or miss; some are awesome and have great charisma and personalities, others are clearly miserable, rude, and couldn’t care any less about your experience. I am not playing here again until the price is reduced dramatically. I could go play Makray, arguably the area’s nicest and most challenging course, for 7 MORE DOLLARS.
I understand the economy, I understand that inflation is an issue, but this is not a 57 dollar course. No way. Leave this course to the 60 year old retirees that can afford it, otherwise use your money elsewhere.

Windy cold day made the course more difficult than normal. Fun course with problems if you stray off course
