City Views

Harborside is a great course that is close to downtown Chicago. It is a challenging layout that is well maintained. We got a great deal through Golfnow and paid about half price. Standard price of a round is around $100. If it wasn't so expensive, I would play the course much more because it is a real pleasure.

Enjoying Harborside More

I've come around to enjoying my rounds at Harborside - I'm not sure if the course is more fair or I have improved, but the last few times I've played Port it has been a fun and challenging round.

Cart Paths Are Trash

I love this course but rarely play here in summer due to the $120 green fee combined with the terrible conditions of the cart paths. Golfers have been complaining for years and the conditions of the cart path really take away from the overall experience at this great course. It’s a shame that the owners only seem care about profit.

Harborside Port Course

Fall golf in Chicago is tough but what I like about Harborside is there are not a lot of leaves all over the ground covering up your ball in fairways or fringe.

Nice course

This place is very nice. Bob the starter is a gem! I just wish it wasn’t so expensive to play.

The course is maintained well, EXCEPT for the cart paths. I would think they would be in better shape in comparative to the course.

Good Golfing Gone Bad!

Great golf courses at Harborside but year after year they do little to maintain the course. Conditions were the worst that I’ve seen. The cart paths are absolutely Atrocious for a Premier course (They are asking $128 for this Friday!)

I’ve never seen more unrepaired ball marks on otherwise nice greens, worn out grass and ruts near the potholed and decrepit cart paths. The paths needs a 100% redo at least six years ago and get worse every year. Tee boxes shaggy and the bunkers worst in years with not enough sand to make a good swing at the ball.

Overall terribly disappointed and I play here a LOT

Makes me rethink whether I’ll continue to support Harborside…this was also the first Season in over a decade when I DID NOT join the Anchor Club

Wiseup HSide or I won’t be they only one to leave you behind
