Course Highlights
Tam O'Shanter's fairways and greens consistently rank among the best-conditioned 9-hole courses in the region. Friendly staff, solid amenities, and excellent value make it the top local option for a quick round.

Great Value

One of the few 9 hole courses with carts in the Chicago area. For beginners like myself the course is fun, speedy play without being rushed and very nice staff.

Great 9 hole track, Great food and fun

Tam is fun. Course is well kept and impressively so based on the amount of play it sees

Greens were a bit tatty Otherwise course was very nice.

Howard Street in is relaxing and the beer is cold and food is good pub fare.

Overall a fast round and good time with a great watering hole.

Great Chicagoland Course

I love this course- don’t be fooled by some seemingly straightforward holes- there are some challenges a well - it’s a great little course with all the amenities and perfect for all ability levels!

Tam is the best

We drove almost 1 hour from the far western suburbs to come to this course. We come out at least once a year it is by far one of the best courses in the state of Illinois. Always maintain well beautiful gorgeous can’t wait till next time.
