Jackson Park Golf Club

We only played 9 holes when it started to rain. When we came to the club house and asked can we get a rain check ,she said no, because rain was in the forecast. Then she left and we wanted to buy some beer while we waited to see if it was going to clear up, and she was no where to be found. So we just left, all this for $95 for 2. totally unacceptable.

The most expensive cart fee that I've seen -- $18 per person. That's $36 just for 1 cart for a two-some group. A mix of walking golfers and riding golfers complicates the pace of play.

Hard and soft dirt/bare spots throughout the course. Fairways were mostly clear of leaves. Greens looked good.

Please consider trimming back the bushes, trees, shrubs on all sides at the crossing on East Marquette Drive, on the way to the 4th hole/17th hole.

Jackson is decent for a muni course, however it has significant problems. The price is outrageous for what your getting. The course is short, crammed into the south side of Chicago, and poorly maintained. There’s rarely a starter and even when there is it’s a mess. I mean four 4-sums teeing off one after another on a weekday. You will be waiting on people ahead of you and have another group driving into you. The driving range is short and weighed and not even located at the course, you need to drive a few blocks for it. The putting green is small and can only comfortable hold around 2, maybe 3, people at a time. The greens are slow and barely break. The hole placements are either rarely changed or barely changed (can’t tell). There’s is dirt all over the fairway and rough (even the greens). The sand is essentially rocks and concrete. To make matters worse, they charge over $50 for 18 with a cart. You can play beautiful, full-length, private courses in the suburbs for half the price. I do golf here often just because it is in the city, convenient, and I don’t have a car to golf in the suburbs often. However, Jackson Park is only my last resort. The conditions of this course and the pace if play would be understandable if they weren’t charging absurd prices for this mediocre course.

This is my third year with Golf Now. I’ve used the app countless times. Today was the first time that I had to pay a total of $30 extra for two cart fees that were not included. I’ve never seen a cat not be included, so I was completely caught off guard. I am not a very happy golf now member.

Very impressed with the value and condition of the course.

Quality course, well kept greens. Pace of play can lag at times, but that’s the game. Enjoy yourself here.

Fairly well maintained city course. Bunker play leaves something to be desired.

This is a historic city course with amazing views of Lake Michigan and the Jackson Park marina area. . Very well maintained and friendly staff. Pace of play is more relaxed than most courses, which is my preference since I’m still working on my game.
