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.

Length 6478 yards

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.

Had a wonderful time playing here! The only disappointments were the price I payed and there were no ball washers on the tee boxes. I was lucky I brought bottled water with me because there was only one drinking fountain (located on the 12th tee box). Other than those things, the course was in excellent shape, the staff was nice and helpful. They have an excellent restaurant/bar as well!

Thieves

Finished playing around 8:30pm and accidentally left my rangefinder on the cart. Called first thing the next morning and even gave them the specific cart number I was in. Somehow the rangefinder wasn’t there anymore even though nobody else used the cart. Careful not to leave anything in your carts here. Seems like the lost and found is only used sparingly.

Slow Play

Usually play this course in less than 4 hours but we had a slow threesome in front of us so it took 4.5 hours. Otherwise, we had a great time!

Course has gone to crap!!!!!

I used to play this course when I was in my 20’s and it was a awesome course very well maintained. And that is not the case anymore so sad to see it look this way traps had weeds in them and the course was just in terrible shape not taking care of at all. I do not recommend anyone going there.

Great Value

This course is very nice and challenging - its a bargain if you get a teeoof.com slot. Greens are well maintained and fast. The course can get slow by mid-morning.

Pace of Play Ranger's job

The course is crowded midsummer with golfers who don't get out that much. You're making the most money you make all year. Be happy with that. Maybe suggest letting others play through in case some real newbies are unclear on the concept. Otherwise, let the ranger go do something useful.
