Good value. greens and fairways good. Rough was inconsistent and some places long. Cart paths could be improved in places. Enjoyed the round.

Despicable pace of play

Came here at 12:20 on a Sunday. Understand if it’s a little slow on a Sunday but how slow it is today is just unacceptable. Back 9 waiting 10 minutes on every tee box. When it’s this slow you have plenty of time to think about how flawed the course is as well. Sand traps are trash. Tee boxes haven’t been cut in days it’s like hitting out of the rough. Will never play here again. Greens are respectable.

I really enjoyed the layout of the course. The fairways were hard which allowed for a lot of roll. Greens were in excellent shape. The course is also marked very well which made it easier for me to decide which clubs to use. I would definitely recommend playing this course

A Real Favorite of mine

It's best to play this course with someone who has played it before. There are a few holes where you must know where to aim your shots to take advantage of the slopes. In other words, don't be quiet, ask question s on how to play the longer holes and your will score much better. The greens are ALWAYS very nice.

Nice place to Golf

The holes weren't too difficult and we enjoyed the course. Could have had one more cart visit but otherwise was a pleasant day.

Great historic course for the area

Cary Country Club has been a go to golf course in Cary Illinois for over 100 years. Located next to the Fox River in Illinois it offers some of the best scenic views in the area. It has very friendly staff who want you to have a very positive golf experience at Cary Country Club, I recommend that if you are in the area and want to golf give Cary Country Club a strong consideration it is a good value and a great experience.
