Course Highlights
Bartlett Hills consistently earns praise for lightning-fast, perfectly sloped greens that rival country club conditions at a great value. The mature tree-lined layout, friendly staff, and well-maintained fairways make it a standout hidden gem in Chicagoland.

Rating 71.7

Bartlett Hills Golf Club has been a favorite Chicagoland golf destination since it first opened in 1929. To keep the layout up to modern standards, it has undergone many changes over the years but it still has the same classic character. At 6,463 yards from the back tees, this traditional layout might not be long but it still provides a fair test. Rather than distance, the golf course demands smart play and accurate shot placement thanks to narrow, tree-lined fairways and several tricky doglegs. You might not have many chances to use your driver but you'll definitely get some iron practice. There isn't too much trouble off of the tees at Bartlett Hills G.C. But greenside you'll be faced with nearly 30 strategically placed bunkers and water hazards come into play on seven holes, which include some forced carries.

Gotta say, whoever chose the pin locations today must have been in a terrible mood. Some of those locations were just pure mean.

Greens fast as lightning

Bartlett Hills course was in very good shape but the course did not drain well from earlier morning rains. There were several spots of standing water on the fairways. Despite the rain, the greens were incredibly fast and had many hidden breaks to them, which made putting very challenging for the day. The course is long but fair but the greens make this a challenging course to achieve pars. Three putts are much more common than 1 of 2 putts.

Great value and round was complete in 4 hours!

Bartlett had done a great job with this course. Played it a lot back in the 90’s and it’s that much better now!

Friendly staff

It would be nice to have ball washers every few holes and water coolers at least once in each nine. Also, all the trash cans are always overflowing anytime I have played here. Course rangers and staff are the best!!!
