Observations
If I had one major complaint about this course, it would be that more distance marking should be added, especially on par 3s. I play from the blue tees and there were numerous times that I questioned the distance from tee to green on them. With having long tee boxes, there are times that an entire club length, plus or minus, could be mistaken. A more minor complaint is that the cart paths are in pretty rough shape. I believe that there should be a plan to improve them within the next few years, especially for older people.
Not very long, but presents difficulty due to various elevation levels and blind hole locations.
I played Meadows with a few friends last week and I was thoroughly impressed with the course conditions, the challenge of hitting from different elevations and the various green / pin locations. I recommend this course for all levels, especially for those that like to grip and rip. The links style course allows you to grip and rip, but the different elevation levels allows you to be crafty from 100 yards in. The added bonus is the course has a grass practice range and not mats, unlike most south side Chicago courses. Its by far the best kept secret in the south side of Chicago, especially for what you pay.
Fun course, the green were nice and fast for a public course.
The course was well maintained with fast greens, great value for the amount paid.
Great deal
Can't complain when I shot 79. :-)
First time here, saw a great deal that morning and went and played it. Average conditions, pretty much what I expected from a Municipal Course. Thanks to Mo, Bob & Kenny for making the round fun.
Nice pace
Got a 4 some round in 4 hours. Good conditions. Challenging.
The greens were air rated.
The cart paths needs a lot of work, but the course is well.
Nice guys here
Just a blue collar course on the south side of Chicago. Have gotten into numerous money games here. Kind of fun..
A nice course at a fair price
Many holes that make you think green were in good shape for late in the year and pace of play was good! staff was nice and flexiable I will play there again
Love the 15th.
Not the greatest, but a good value. Needs a lot a maintenance; lots of standing water and bare spots. They do seem to be doing more work on it now than in previous years. Some good holes (and some not so good holes). Greens are in good shape.
always a challenge
course is great, the greens are some of toughest to read. had a good time
This course is a super value!
Meadows Golf Club is a great track for the price. Much of the course is under repair and there are definitely some drainage issues. But if you go early, you can fly through the course with no problems. My GPS didn't pick up the yardage, bit there are yardage markers so it's not a problem.
Average
good prices, average/poor everything else. Pace of play is terrible.
for the price this course is one of the best deals on the south side
the fairways are as good as most courses, the traps are fair, their are some water holes which can be challenging. their are plenty of trees and the rough can be hard to get hard to get out of.
