Bridges of Poplar Creek Country Club

The layout of the course is fine, but unfortunately the course was not in good condition. The greens were filled with disease and the fairways had many bare spots, which is surprising considering the excellent growing weather we have had recently.

Shot one of my best scores, and it a great looking course from tee to green, but the greens were pretty slow - but disclaimer is that I played at 5pm so they'd been played on and growing all day.

The one draw back - there was a foursome playing from the wrong tees that jammed everyone up. They wouldn't take the hint and let anyone through even with us pulling up to them as they were hitting their second off the tees, Rangers needed to kick em in gear.

Greens great. Fairways had alot of water damage.
4.5 hours

I have played here several times. They maintain this course very well and green are in great condition (very fast) The course can be pretty challenging at time with water and traps every where, but thats a good thing. The 2 negative things i can say is they are known to put tee times too close together, this causes slow play. Also the greens are all pretty much next to the tee boxes. Bring your hard hat.

Greens and fairways were in good shape. Courteous staff makes all the difference.

Course is in good shape as of July 6th. The greens have some wear to them but it looks like it's more on the people playing then the course itself. Rough was tough to get out of which made it more challenging. Live in the city so it was quite a haul to get here, but worth the discount we received on golf now.

The course is in pretty good shape considering the winter. I played this course for $30 during the week which is a great value. GPS carts are a plus too.

Nice course, relatively challenging. Some holes were in bad shape.

the course is great you laid up or go for green.on most hole .i like narrow fairway and tree line

Overall this course is very good but it could be great. Like most complaints, mine is with the greens. The inconsistency in the middle of June is semi mind boggling. I have played many other courses in the area with far superior green conditions. I love the course and even understand that Chicago had a harsh winter, but they need to stop using that as a crutch and step up. If other courses are finding a way, so can Bridges. Otherwise I love every other aspect of this facility.

I generally don't play this course as it is a little pricey for what you get. We only had time available Sunday morning so we were going to pay a premium regardless of where we played. The course was in great shape and the round only took about 4-4 1/2 hours. The greens are challenging and some of the fairways are narrow. Good test of your game without being to penalizing. Would play more often if the price were better.

Very nice course but some of the greens were in very bad shape
Pace was a little slow to start but picked up

Greens awful!
Greens awful!
Greens awful!
Bunkers not consistent.
I've played 20 times in the area and this is the worst conditioned place by far! What a shame. The kicker is that I live on the course and I stay away. Only reason I played today was time/price fit.

It's almost June. Time to stop blaming the winter weather.

Only bright spot was that there are workers about trying to address the many needs.

Price points? Wait a couple months before venturing out.

This was a good course. We enjoyed the course. There were good holes and we found holes that were challenging and interesting.

I booked this course online and showed up as a single to play on a beautiful Saturday late afternoon. Given the weather I assumed I would be paired up and was told in the proshop that I would be. I waited on the tee as a group went off and was told to wait, and then was told to go off on my own to which I was surpirsed, but not at all opposed to.

The 4some in front of me did not let me through and I was waiting 10-15mins between shots. When the marshall came around, I asked him if he could tell the group in front to let me play through, and he said he couldn't do that and to skip a hole and just pass them. I wanted to play a full 18, so I waited another couple holes to see if they would let me through and they didn't, so I did eventually pass them and was behind another 3some who also did not let me through. I asked another marshall if I could be paired up with them or if I could be let through and he also denied me being able to do that. Eventually, I gave up and did not want to play another 9 holes (which I paid for) waiting 95% of the time.

I went to the proshop and asked if I could just go use the range instead of play the back 9 and they said that I would still have to pay for range tokens at the range and would not refund even a dollar of my round.

The course was in fair condition, many of the greens still had dirt patches where the grass had been cut too low or had not grown in well yet. The tee boxes and fairways were in great condition though.

Poor service and planning will be keeping me away from this course.

Greens are in bad shape but they are addressing it

Out of the last 50-60 golf courses I have played over the last few years, this course was by far in the WORST shape I have played. The fairways were terrrible, the greens were half covered in sand because of all the damages on them. Thier were 3-4 temporary greens because the real ones were so bad. If I managed this course, I would be embarrassed to let people play on it. I am very upset that they charged the prices they did for this dogtrack. Do not play.

There are some temp. green for 3 holes and overall fairway are needed to be improving grass conditions...

decent course, tight fairways, short, fairly easy.

I t was a good deal on golfnow, when I got there I found out why. Temp. greens and freshlyu air rated.
The coarse had gps which is usually good. They weren't set for the temp greens, so you didn't know how far they were. They were very rough as well, it was best to putt with a 7 iron. Even the greens that weren't temp were very rough, putts bouncing and turning, not a good day to score, but nice to get out and play. It played very slow over 5 hours. That was this time, the last time I played there the coarse was in good shape. On a normal summer day, I think there way overpriced.
