Fun Course!
This is a shorter course that makes up for that distance difficulty with a few very different hole designs and extremely challenging greens. Each hole can play very differently depending on the day based on where the hole locations are. Lots of multi-tiered greens!
We appreciate you taking the time to rate us 5 stars!
Hello, kukectom. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry to see that your overall experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you'll give us another try in the near future.

Enjoyed the course but greens were tough to read and pin positions were challenging.

Top Notch Course Transformation
Based on a review of this golf course on thefriedegg.com, my son and I decided to play Mt. Prospect Golf Club. We were not disappointed in our decision! We were quite fortunate to be paired with two players very familiar with the course as they have annual memberships - their insights provided us with a most enjoyable round of golf. The golf course was dramatically transformed through a redesign by Dave Esler, who incorporated many architectural principles of C. B. Macdonald and Seth Raynor including many of the famed green complexes found at Chicago Golf Club - Redan, Biarritz, Double Plateau and Punchbowl. Each hole is different from each other and requires a unique strategy from tee to green. The green complexes are amazing and with large undulations and subtle breaks even when they appear to be level, successful putting requires local knowledge and most likely multiple rounds. Many thanks to Jerry and Bobby for an enjoyable round and drink afterwards. I'm looking forward to returning to play Mt. Prospect Golf Club again in the near future.
Thank you so much for coming out to the course! We appreciate your kind review and cannot wait to have you back again soon!
Thanks so much for rating us 5 stars!
Excellent value for what you get!
Loved this course! It is an outstanding shape. Only problem is the greens are ridiculously challenging. Way over the top in my opinion.
We appreciate you coming out to the course, and taking the time to leave us a review. We thank you for your feedback about the greens, and will use this to make improvements for your next visit! We look forward to having you back again soon!
Old Style Golf Club for a Modern Time
I am a huge fan of classical designed golf courses! I had done a lot of research prior to playing Mt Prospect, and I am so happy that not only did the course meet my expectations, but blew them away!!!
We played during the current COVID modified restrictions and a nagging persistent rain. But with everything against us, it was an amazing experience. The course was in amazing condition considering all the rain that had fallen. The greens rolled true and quick, but I recommend plenty of practice considering the severe undulations. The course is relatively flat, but still offers enough contour to not get boring. The course layout is challenging and requires shot placement which is a throw-back to classic courses.
I have played numerous top 100 courses across the country, and would choose to tee it up at Mt Prospect daily if I lived in the area.
Thank you so much for taking the time to rate us!

Premium on Shotmaking Here
Course is in great shape, but a little buggy. Tight layout and complex greens make it critical to be accurate in order to have any chance at scoring well.
Thank you for visiting us at Mt Prospect Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
