Cary Country Club

Three of six employees were great. There were two female employees - one bartender and another bar cart driver who were exceptionally kind. A third employee, Frank, was nice and tried to be helpful. Frank’s boss and another person (Mark?) who I dealt with on the phone were rude and callously so. I will not be going back to this place, and I’ll be sharing my terrible experience with friends who golf in the area.

Their policies listed on the app are inaccurately stated and enforced differently at the course. I took my partner and our kids out for a round to celebrate his birthday. We prepaid. My son, 7-years-old, has been golfing for two years. They would not let him on the course because he’s “under 10” - supposedly it’s posted on their website, but I could not find it - at least at the time we were told this but maybe they’ll fix it before unceremoniously kicking another family to the curb. Their socials also have nothing clearly posted. In the tee time policies on the app, it says kids under 10 are not allowed to ride on a cart - but we were only booked for 9 holes and would have been open to walking but that wasn’t allowed either. Frank tried to call and get special permission from his boss over the phone, but that was unsuccessful. He promised a refund, but it’s almost a week later. I had to call to follow up, and I just received an email notice that I’m ineligible for a refund.

I’m a reasonable enough person, but I do not like to be treated with such disrespect. As a female golfer, I encounter already too many who side eye and cast doubt upon my skills and etiquette without knowing anything about me. I must question whether Cary Country Club is run by folks who espouse such an attitude. I can only hope this review prompts them to straighten up and get their acts together for the sake of other golfers, but I won’t be among them.

First time playing this course. Staff is very nice and helpful. Also made me feel like I wasn’t playing in IL.. nice to play a course with some hills.

There is nothing exotic about this course. Aside from a few interesting holes designs it’s straight forward and pretty easy. But it does give you a chance to go out and not over exert yourself and you can look to attack each hole due to the open fairways and, mostly, forgiving landscape.

Not much water, steep inclines on greens. No driving range but did have a putting green, easy to lose balls in the brush next to the course but that just adds to the challenge aspect. Overall good course, paid $33 per person for 18 holes. Had to wait about 10min at one par 3 over water just to tee off, but quickened immediately after that hole. Overall good experience, would recommend

I have played here many times and it never disappoints. The day was perfect and the course conditions were ideal. Can't wait to play here again.

The course is interesting. Many holes uphill or downhill which is unique for Illinois. Not the best tailored golf course but kept up pretty well and they continue to improve the golf course little by little. It’s really a little gem that should play.

Beautiful course with lots of hills near the Fox river. Greens are quick and sloping, quite challenging. I love it!
