Buffalo Grove Golf Course
About
Buffalo Grove Golf Club is an 18-hole municipal course that offers an enjoyable round for players of all skill levels. The gently rolling terrain is covered with mature trees and wetlands, all of which provide challenges on the course. In addition to the natural hazards, there are a few strategically placed bunkers lurking throughout. Accuracy will be helpful when maneuvering the tree-lined fairways but it's not a terribly punishing golf course. There are a few tricky spots, but overall it's a forgiving and player-friendly layout. It's ideal for beginners and also good for a quick and casual round for any skill level. The golf course's affordability is another appealing aspect of the course. Buffalo Grove G.C. also offers a practice facility with a 25-station driving range and pitching and chipping greens.

A decent, not too demanding course.
Overall course was in good condition, greens unfortunately aerified, but that's to be expected at this time. Like the layout and different holes, with sufficient bunkering and water hazards. Plus, the price was exceptional. Pace of play was very good, and staff was super friendly. I would recommend this course.
Challlenging course which requires accurate driving and strong iron play.
Course was in much better condition in the fall after so much rain. back nine plays tougher because of more water and sand traps. Par 5's are long and tight.
Pace of play was a little slow, and is probably worse on weekends. Fun course to play and we were not pushed.!
Buffalo Grove Golf Course is a good one
We played Buffalo Grove Golf Course in just under 4 hours. Fun and challenging course. Was in really good shape. Friendly staff. If you are local would suggest playing it. Thank You BGGC for a good day.
Course was in great shape and competitive.
Got off on time. Front nine was slow due to group in front. Back nine fast paced.
Loved it!
Had a great time and the course was in excellent condition
Buffalo Grove GC - Good Municipal Course
Buffalo Grove is a reasonably priced, reasonably maintained, par 72 municipal course that you can play in under 4.5 hrs. Their carts do not have GPS and there are no yardages on the sprinkler heads -- only 100/150/200 yard posts. Greens are average speed, smooth, and in good condition.
Good Muni
As long as you know that this muni sees a lot of play, you won't be expecting too much. For as much play as this course sees, its in pretty good shape. Fairways are good. Greens are good. This course lets you use every shot in your bag. Plenty of longer holes were you can take out the 1-wood (does anyone still call them that?). IMO back nine is tougher than the front.
Good course for senior and women. Course is flat good for walking.
Average conditioned course. Wonderful for senior and women player for walking.
beautiful course
Would've been better if the ranger put his 2 cents in once in a while. 18 took almost 5hrs and it was a Monday and not crowded.
Over crowded
The golf course was in pretty good condition. The play of the golf course though was what killed the experience. The course was packed, tee times were right on top of each other and the pace of play was terribly slow.
Great Course, Great Value
Went there on a Sat around 10am ... the pace was great for a Sat., the course was in great shape, the greens were a bit slow but it had rained heavily the night before so that's understandable.
Would Highly recommend this course. Also the range has grass on the tee boxes which was great to hit from before starting the round. Would go back in a heart beat!!
Paid for 18 holes. Got rained out after 2 1/2 hours and only 6 holes of play.
There was no ranger on the course to speed up play. The group in front of us was more than 2 holes behind. They refused to give us a rain check as they said our tee time payment qualified us as a twilight rate and there is no rain policy on this rate. I would not recommend this course to anyone.
Nothing Special
Conditions were fair at best. Greens were slow, sand in bunkers very heavy. Pace was acceptable on front nine while more challenging back nine took nearly 3 hours with not a ranger in sight.
Layout is okay and fairly challenging. Problem is the course attracts a lot of less skilled players and that results in bottlenecks on tougher holes.
Very enjoyable
Traditional midwestern course with tree lined fairways and plenty of doglegs.
challenging+well maintained for a municipal course
I arrived a bit late for my tee time but the staff at the (quite small) proshop was courteous and helpful. I wanted to have a quick practice range session beforehand but didn''t manage to squeeze one in so I did not have a chance to check out the range..
As far as the course is concerned it was fairly well maintained being peak summer conditions I was expecting it to be in worse shape. It was fairly challenging and a plethora of dog legs awaits you. Greens were terribly slow but in good shape nonetheless. Fairways were extremely narrow so a range session before hand is recommended. The rough is challenging to say the least so keep it straight and simple is a good approach.
As far as the course is concerned its playable and fun if you remember to keep it simple. It however lacks that feeling of solace usually accompanied with golf. No matter which hole you are on reminders of modern civilization are nearby. Houses, roads and businesses line the outskirts of the course hindering any peace or mental detachment from day-day life. Which is one of the main reasons I play.
I would recommend this course to others as it does offer a fair challenge and you can get great discounts non it. As for paying full price I would pass and venture elsewhere.
Well established, mature course.
Not a very long course, but has plenty of mature trees lining it. Most of the fairways are wide, but there are a few that are narrow and require a more precise drive off the tee. Very nice bar/restaurant on site for a cool drink and a sandwich at the turn or afterward.
staff was great
the weather was 98 degrees outside the course had rangers following the golfers with cold water
A good Challenge for a Municipal Course
Well maintained in spite of recent flooding> only time i have played a course where the starter urged you to stay out of the rough. Greens were tricky with some running fast and some very slow.
Challenging course, fair price.
I've played this course many times, the course is in fairly good shape. The greens can be challenging to hit in regulation because of their size. Staff is friendly and the pace of play is adequate.
