Gorgeous View on the Second Tee Box Photo submitted by JBlissed on 06/25/2018
Love the Elevations but Hate the Tees
First the good: Fun elevations and the bar is nice. That's all I have to say good. There are only two sets of tees and really only one for the most part. Nearly all the white and red tees share the same teeing ground. The rough Is very high and thick and the fairways are cut narrow. The greens are on the small side and in poor condition. It's late season so I will give them a parcial pass on that. The USGA promotes 'Play it Forward" but this place didn't get the memo.
Cary CC, Cary, Illinois
This is a parkland type course; wide open fairways; average fairway condition; good greens; not a particularly challenging tract but some nice elevated views.
Thank you for your review. We hope you enjoyed your round and look forward to having you back out soon!
Old Course
This course hasn't changed in 40 years.The greens were better than I remembered.The rest of the layout is very average.The elevation changes are the only real challenge.
Thank you for your feedback and we are happy the greens were better than you remembered. We look forward to having you back soon!
Nice Country Course
The people running the course were very friendly and helpful.
The course is laid out very hilly, with several unique holes. It is on the short side from a distance standpoint, but the hill contours create challenging shots.
The rough is fairly deep and at times it is difficult to locate your ball. But if you stay in the fairway you can score well.
Thanks so much for playing Cary CC! We will audit the rough thanks for letting us know, glad you enjoyed the uniqueness of the course.,
Great Layout
If you have never golfed this course, you have to go. The layout is excellent. Very hilly with many tee boxes well above the holes and fairways. The greens and fairways are in great condition and the rough is a bit longer so it certainly challenges you. I would recommend this course to anyone. Also take advantage of their specials like $30 Thursdays, which includes lunch with your round.
Great! So glad you loved the course thank you for the awesome review and glad you loved the experience.
Good Value
Have played CCC for years.
This round, holes were cut in a very sloppy fashion.
Course was in decent shape, but we played for $19, so the value was high.
We were stuck behind what seemed to be a senior men's league. Everyone was very friendly, but it was pretty slow.
Worth money, worth the time, but it is not a top notch experience.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention, we regret to hear it was not a top notch experience. We hope that you do give us another shot real soon. We look forward to your visit and thank you for being a great sport.
Could be so much better!
This is a nice course, challenging elevation changes. Greens are usually in good condition but the tee boxes and rough are basically the same length. Some TLC to the tee boxes would be nice. Everyone I've played here the pace of play is terrible. No Marshall on the course but they have a starter. The price is right for the value but it's just a few tweaks away from being a great course!
Thank you for your review. We will inform our staff on the concern here in order to improve pace of play. Come back and see us soon!
very good
over all it was good time.
Thanks so much for coming out and playing at Cary CC!
First time at Cary Country Club
Really enjoyed the course conditions and the layout. The elevated areas give a wide vista of the course which is separated from surrounding areas by large mature trees. This course is a mature, traditional course and does need 300 yard drives to make par (luckily for me). Greens were consistent although slightly slow. Bunkers had uniform sand conditions. I would recommend this course to others. Difficult to find without GPS in your car!
Thanks so much for leaving this insight and your suggestions! We are so glad you made it out and enjoyed your round!
This course is poorly maintained.
I couldn't stand how bad this course is maintained. It looks nice from a far, but the rough is long everywhere, there are so many bumps when riding the cart no matter where you go you are bouncing and my clubs are almost falling off the cart, very slow pace of play, no driving range, course is cheap and if you like cheap play here.

Great course
I always like to play CC because its a great course that is not too difficult to play and the condition of the course is always well maintained. The front 9 is pretty straight forward but the back 9 is a bit more tricky as youre hitting through more woods. Overall I enjoy myself everytime I'm out here.
Happy to hear you enjoy playing Cary CC regularly! We can't wait to see you again.
Definitely needs a renovation
Cart paths are a joke! The greens are tough to look at it is early may but rough conditions all in all course didnt impress me not much water and not really a challenging course.
Thank you for playing at Cary Country Club, we regret to hear the course conditions did not meet your expectations this early in the season. We are working towards the best Cary CC possible, come back and see us!
What you see is what you get.
I play Cary CC multiple times every year. The course is always in good shape. I've never had any complaints about the conditions of the greens, tee boxes, or fairways. Every once in a while, the rough can get pretty long, but I guess that is why you have to keep the ball in the "short stuff."
Cary CC is an "old school" course where almost all of the holes are pretty straight forward with no hidden surprises. When standing on every tee box (except holes 8 and 15), you can see everything laid out in front of you. The biggest challenge on this course is the elevation changes. The 5th hole and 11th holes are blind shots into the green because of how elevated the green is. Besides being a sharp dog-leg left, the 15th hole is also tricky because it also has a slightly elevated green that slopes sharply from back to front. DO NOT end up above the hole on the 15th.
Cary CC is not a "tricky" course. It is not necessarily a course you have to think your way around (you can hit driver off the tee on almost every non-par 3 hole). You can slice or hook your ball all day and be relatively fine. It is not a long course by any means. It is a course that I come to when I am looking for an enjoyable round with a friend or two and I know I will be able to score well with multiple birdie chances.
Overall, you get what you pay for and what you see is what you get. On many days you can't beat their rates. There is no range to warm up on. They have a hitting bay with a net that you can hit into to warm up. The carts don't have GPS on them. I've never seen a beverage cart on the course. The pro shop is adequate. These things don't matter to me, but they may to others. The bottom line for me is that the course is always a good play and I will always recommend it to other golfers regardless of skill level.
Thanks so much for playing at Cary Country Club! We appreciate the detail in your feedback, very useful for new golfers at this course. We hope to see you again soon!
Great course for the money
Cary CC is an old-school, simple, short layout. As long as you know that going in, you won't have any issue. The course is fair throughout and rewards good shots. There were a few pin placements that were a bit ridiculous, but other than that, no complaints. For the price ($25 on a weekend), how can you go wrong?
Also, stop in the bar afterwards. It's really nice inside, and the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. Although the weather wasn't conducive to sitting outside, they have a huge deck overlooking the 10th tee that looks nice as well. The course is worth a visit.
Thank you so much for coming out to play and providing you feedback! We hope to see you back again soon!
greens in excellent condition
A fairly easy course, perfect for early season warm up. The greens were quick and, for this time of year, in great shape.
So glad you loved the greens and course conditions at Cary Country Club! We hope to see you real soon.
Great Course - Great People
I was amazed by this course especially since it is early in the season. You can tell how hard the staff works on this course. The pro shop staff was friendly and the hot dogs at the turn were excellent. Greens and fairways were excellent. There are a couple of goofy holes so if first time playing keep an eye on the scorecard for course layout.
Thank you so much for noticing all our improvements at Cary Country Club! We are glad to hear you loved the course and the staff made your experience that much more enjoyable. Come back and see us!
fun tract
have been playing this course several times a year for the past 40 years--it was a bit short "in the day" but lots of elevation changes still made it fun.
staff has changed over the years but the current staff is very friendly and accommodating
we did a golf now "deal" so we paid virtually nothing.
we will play this course more often in the future..
Thank you for your great review and continued patronage! We look forward to seeing you back for many more rounds!
price dictates pace
play was unusually slow. we followed a 3 some that were ridiculously slow. they were always waiting for the group ahead to clear, even though there was no chance of hitting into them. also ignorant of the game of golf in general. one of them told us he has been playing for 30 years and he knows the game. uh-huh, as he says in his blue jeans and t-shirt. the dress policy clearly states NO denim and collared shirts required. ya' get all kinds when the price is so low but in all fairness, Cary Country Club is one of my favorite "near home" courses. very generous fairways. well kept and just all around fun. unless you get behind the chooches we had the unfortunate pleasure of following.
Thank you for your review. We are happy to hear Cary is one of your favorite local golf destinations, and we look forward to seeing you back for many more rounds!
A character builder
Was in great shape & the hilly terrain provides great character. Greens were fast but fair. Played with a couple of wonderful companions.
Thank you for your review! We are happy to hear you had an enjoyable experience with wonderful company at Cary Country Club, and we hope to see you all back for another tee time soon!
right for the price
It seemed like our own course. Playing after the rain cleared out. At ccc theres no cart path only rule here and fkr my achy bones thays perfect when a big rain moves through and other courses have cart path only. Its not long , but you still have to hit golf shots to score. A great deal anytime on golf now hot deals.
Thank you for your nice review! We are glad you stuck the rain out and enjoyed a great round and further that you were able to comfortably navigate the course. We hope to see you back for another tee time soon!
Thank you for your feedback. We are always looking to improve course conditions and take your comments very seriously. Look forward to having you back soon and making up for this experience.
