Buffalo Grove Golf Course

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.

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.

Traditional midwestern course with tree lined fairways and plenty of doglegs.

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.

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.

the weather was 98 degrees outside the course had rangers following the golfers with cold water

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.

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.

Very slow play for a weekday. Fairway was long. Greens were okay to a bit slow. Lots of rain recently might have something to do with it. Tee boxes were a bit rough. Still a good deal for the Golf Now price. Wouldn't pay full price to play here.

Same experience last 3 times I've played there, too bad, the course is in nice shape. Just short of 5 hours.

This course is a nice change of pace. It's not super long, but has many elements designed to challenge your game. The greens are fair, though someone needs to explain ball mark repair to their normal constituency.

The range and putting green are fantastic. My only complaint is that they shoved too many lanes too close together on the range.

$45/ inc. cart was a little steep for a late morning weekday, but I suppose they are busy enough to justify the cost. I'll play here on occasion, but it certainly won't be a regular in my rotation.

Nice and quick round. Good service and friendly staff. Course was in decent shape. I would tell others to try it!

Nice Driving range and practice greens. The course was well maintained. The greens were slow but fair. this seems to be a popular course so the pace of play was slow.
The staff was friendly and the bar/Restaurant was very inviting. I particularly liked the outside patio bar.

Was in good shape despite unfavorable weather this spring. We will come back.

This course has many bunkers and lakes which are challenging and enjoyable. This course is the one of the best in the areas where I live. I strongly recommend this course to all.

Great course except for some reason on the practice putting green there are no holes to shoot in. Very odd.

This course is fairly flat and wide open between the fairways, and the hazards are not unmanageable. It is a favorite of infrequent and beginning players so it's not uncommon to encounter players from several different groups in your fairway retrieving wayward shots. It's a friendly place but be prepared for a long round if you try on the weekend.

Front 9 only so-so, but the back 9 has some stong holes. Course was in good shape for the time of year. Played fast.

The deal off golfnow makes this course good value otherwise I don't think I would play here. Tons of leaves all over the place, greens had been aerated recently as well. Pace of play is usually pretty slow. Decent practice facility with the large putting green, chipping area, and grass tee range.

The course is a decent test. However, the fairways are not cut short enough and should you drive the fairways, you will not get a lot of roll. The same for the greens which are a little on the slow side. I guess they don't want the watering expense to cut the greens/fairways.
