Blackberry Oaks Golf Club

Two buddies and I picked up a hot deal on this course for $33 on a Monday. We live in the Downers Grove/Lombard area, and it surprisingly only took us ~35 minutes to get the the course. Check in was simple and we even got to tee off a little early. There were a few other groups on the course, but pace of play was excellent.

The course layout is great even though it is some what short. The fairway bunkers were a bit rocky, but the green side bunkers were in great shape. Bent grass fairways were in perfect condition. Greens played hard and pretty quick. Many areas of tall fescue and water hazard that come in to play off the tee. I consider myself a "bogey golfer" and that's exactly what I shot for the day.

Will definitely be returning to this course in the future. It was well worth the drive.

5 hour round, totally unacceptable. Played behind a fivesome (on a Sunday morning). The on course ranger approached us on the 7th hole to ask if pace of play was a problem. We explained we were waiting on every shot at least five minutes (longer on the tees). The ranger looked at his clock and stated the pace was OK. We finished the front 9 in 2 hours 30 minutes. The back was no better and the ranger was never seen again. Very frustrating.

Course is in very good shape. Ball sits up well on the fairways, there is plenty of sand and the rough is tough. If you keep the ball in the fairway the course is very score able at 6400 yards. Generally flat and fairways do not drain well. Greens are adequately large, providing opportunities for 3 putts. Several challenging and memorable holes.

Course is in great shape and is both challenging and moderate in playablity depending on your tee selection. We really enjoy playing here.

I found a hot deal for a 12:30 tee time as a single. Showed up 15-20 minutes early. No hassle, they sent me out as a single, only a few groups ahead of me. Teed off and played a fast 9. Caught the groups ahead around hole 10, and was done in under 4 hours. Course was WELL maintained, and no complaints. Super friendly staff and would recommend this course to others.

not many people on the late afternoon that I went.
completed 18 holes in 3 hours 15 minutes.
course was in great condition
this was the first time golfing here, I will be going
back again.

The greens were perfect and tee boxes well maintained. I liked that you couldn't just take a driver out all the time.

great course lot's of tough holes but still a lot of fun to play

Friday afternoon so was expecting a long day. Nice surprise. 4 hours. Course is in great shape.

Good layout, nicely maintained, not slow for saturday, worthwhile for $35.

challenging holes, nice pace of play, nice restaurant

Played Sunday; no starter; but got off a little early; this is a short course; claims to be 6400 from the tips, I'd guess closer to 6200. lots of Driver short iron shots. They have some interesting holes, plenty of water, but it's not "too much". Bunker Sand was nice, fairway sand a little pebbly. Greens are sluggish and generally flat. The rough was thick in spots. I had played a few years back and remember it being in a little better shape. amazingly fast for a sunday afternoon, but that had nothing to do with Rangers, but possibly they aren't staking em up off the tee. I enjoyed the day and played with less experienced golfers that thought it was a fun track. Keep your expectations down and you will have fun.

Great course for the money!!! The practice facility is decent, but could use a larger practice area. The course was in great shape. Greens played true and the fairways looked well kept. Water played a factor in several holes including hole number 4 with the green partly surrounded by water. My favorite hole was the 18th, which was a dog-leg to the left and played 387 yards from the back tees. The 18th green was surrounded by a creek with a challenging approach shot to the green.

I hadn't played this course in a # of years and their ability to handle the recent wet weather has improved greatly. Pace was good on a Sat afternoon. Course requires some thought rather than bombing it off the T.

Fairly wide fairways & best to hit them. Probably the toughest rough I have been in, you could break your wrist getting out of the short stuff. A couple of nice holes with large bunkers fronting the green to test your short game. Greens in really nice shape, nice course.

great value using "hot deals" on golf now. Fun course. My only complaint is the greens could have been a little faster.

The course is in great condition and very well maintained. Blackberry has a mix of short and long par 3's, dog legs, and a few reachable par 5's in 2. I would definitely go back to this course in the future.

It was a little soggy, but expected from all of the rain we have had. I really enjoyed the pace we were able to play at because the course was not overbooked.

this course has a very nice layout with challenging holes but plenty of room for semi= wayward shots. greens are quick with very subtle breaks. nothing but fun!

Most par 4's are short and easy to make par. Par 3's are somewhat challenging and fun to play. Overall, course is very playable and in pristine condition.
