Port at Harborside International Golf Center

I really enjoyed playing here today.

So sad to see this gem go south! Fairways and rough have left over cut grass that is now taking over the course. You can’t pay $100 and see that kind of stuff all over the course. No cart girl either, I guess they were short on staff so we saw her once the entire round. Really? You gotta do better than that! What a shame, it was one of my favorite course pre covid. Take you $100 and go somewhere else, you will get better courses for that kind of money.

professional grade course. fast greens with challenging looks. highly recommended for any golfer that is below a 15 handicap and is looking to improve. a bit pricey, but you certainly get what you pay for in my opinion.

Nice course, but there is no regard for pace of play. Have played twice and have quit early both times because of the ridiculously slow play. Have only played 15 holes both times. You need more people on the course directing the golfers.

Always have a great time here. Port is definitely second fiddle to starboard, but I like both more than most suburban courses.

Twilight rates are a steal and the best value.

Practice range is top notch

Will keep coming here.

The golf course was in excellent condition.. The staff,Kennedy and starter Art were excellent

I enjoy myself every time I play golf here.

P. S Really miss Terry Oneill not being there anymore. Thanks Matt

The pricing of this place has become offensive. I asked the guy in the pro shop why the rates have increased so much from last year and he said it was to recoup Covid losses. Well the money certainly hasn't gone into the course because it was in average shape at best.

Harbsorside is two solid courses that are convenient to the city. Charging me $115 for either of them is ridiculous when you haven't improved the course at all over the 7 years I've been playing there. Will not be back until they start pricing the place appropriately.

I’ve played this course, both Port and Starboard,, many times over the years and I’ve never seen it in worse shape. The greens were fine but many or should I say most of the tee boxes were burned out. It used to be a nice course but no longer. Not worth the money. I won’t be returning. There are many better courses in the Chicagoland area for what they’re charging($100).

This course is always a pleasure to play no matter what I score (which usually isn't good)! The scenery and setting are just amazing. Needs rain desperately,but what course doesn't this year?

This was my first round of the year. It was roughly 75+ out and sunny - fantastic. To say that Harborside was windy would be to say that it gets dark when the sun goes down - it's ALWAYS windy at Harborside.

If you're going and never have been, this is how it works:

the range is on the west side of the parking lot and the club house is on the east side. If you are only going to the range, just park by the range (it'll be on the left when you approach on the driveway.) If you are golfing, park by the club house (on the right.)

A bucket of balls and the cart are included with your round - no walking (some of the holes are too far apart.)

The challenges:

wind, fescue, fast greens

Like I said earlier, there are always strong winds.

Tall grass lines most of the holes. If your ball goes in, you'll never find it. Take your medicine and move on.

The greens are very fast, but true.

The course does not have a ton of undulation and it rewards keeping the ball in play. The rough is thick and the fescue, well . . . bring some extra balls.

Terrible layout, No element of risk reward on the golf course. Punitive in ways that aren’t enjoyable as a golfer. There’s fescue basically five yards off the fairway throughout the port course, particularly on the front nine, There’s one hole on the front nine where the fairway zig zags every 20-25 yards, four or five times around bunkers and fescue, basically penalizing anyone who hits it over 200 yards from the tips. That’s chicken-s golf course design that doesn’t create an experience where golfers can be rewarded for good shots and penalized for poor ones. This course relies on gimmicks to defend itself, as opposed to refined, well considered design. Would not recommend.

Great courses but no amenities for after the round.

Played later in day so rates were cheaper. Marshal was really rude but rest of staff was cool.
