Starboard at Harborside International Golf Center

It’s been pretty damp the past few weeks The rough (anything off the fairway or the fringe) is lush and thick. In other words, miss the fairway and you risk the chance (high) of losing your ball. Fairways were rolling and the greens a little slow. Overall, below average conditions for an otherwise excellent track.

I’ll have to come back when they have the mowers out and have more than one beverage cart.

Dollar for dollar the worst value golf in Chicago. Over priced tee fees ($80+ for their “Spring Rate”). Charged for a “bucket” of balls that was maybe 10-15 balls (found out after I bought it). The course was so wet that I found plug balls on nearly every fairway. Had to give up the round after 9 with how wet my shoes got. Don’t think the course should’ve been open. I’ve played here a bunch and always been annoyed by the higher prices relative to the quality (it’s often a swamp). I will be avoiding more than I usually do moving forward. Better options around the metro for significantly less $$. Finally - the anchor hole is so gimmicky and dumb.

Course was in amazing condition and stayed open when it was warm in December!

I schedule my tee time a week in advance, unaware that Golfnow not deals didn’t allow refunds. The weather was nasty but since the course was still “open” we had to play to get our moneys worth. My friend and I quit playing after 9 because it was so cold but “per policy” we wouldnt receive a refund from our Hot Deal on GOLFNOW. It’s frustrating because I enjoy the app but am hesitant to use it again due to the inability to receive a credit on this particular booking. A nasty loophole.

Really enjoyed playing the Starboard Course.

Tee Boxes need some care and the cart paths in desperate need to re-blacktopping but course & greens were great

Couldn’t ask for better weather this late in the season. Light breezes, not as windy as usual. Course was a little wet and the rough was extremely deep, but if you kept it in the short grass, you were good. Greens ran great..a few tees and fairways on the back were punched, but not terrible. Number 17, with the pin back right !!!! Knocked it 5 feet....best shot of the day!!

The halfway house continues to be out of items and has a hard time keeping stock. Saw the cart girl once on the 15th hole and restaurant and bar were closed at 2:30 pm on a Sunday for an event. The rest rooms on course were in terrible shape, damaged, dirty and falling apart. There isn't anyone at the bag drop to receive bags or load them on carts. The beverage cooler attached to the cart was full of trash so the cart wasn't cleaned for the next round. Covid is no longer an excuse for poor amenities at this rate. If you're going to provide less then charge less.

One of our favorite courses close to the city. The wind is always there, so pack extra balls. They had aerated the greens the week before so still putting was a little off here and there.

Always find this a tough course esp if wind is blowing. Great course and layout T boxes today showed a little wear greens were good probably because a lot of golfers don’t hit them

Great course great practice facility fair at best service

Course was in ok shape. Some tee boxes were beat up along with the cart paths needing heavy repair work.

Still had a great time although I feel like this course is about 30-50dollars overpriced for the value.

Where is the drink cart? Almost never see it on this course….
