A nice surprise
I’ve been playing this course for 25 years, it’s a simple 9 hole course that was never in good shape. But I played it this morning and it was in the best shape I’ve ever seen it in. The greens were in great shape, ball marks were repaired, bunkers were raked, and no goose crap on the fairways. A nice Surprise!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave an excellent rating! We really appreciate your business. Thanks for choosing Willow Hill Golf Course!
A HAPPY OCTOGENARIAN GOLFER
My friends and I enjoyed playing at Willow Hill Golf course since it was under new management. The staff (front desk, pro shop, fields) is courteous, helpful). You just want to come back to play on this beautiful Scottish links golf course located on a hill in Northbrook, Illinois with a great view of the beautiful Lady of the Brook Church and the Chicago Skyline. Play the nine hole course once and you will come back.

. Close to links style
It can feel close to a links style course. Especially with strong winds on the hill tops

Good intermediate course
Tricky in spots but no major trees or water. This is an ideal course for the novice golfer..

New course management changes headed in right direction
Since the currant course management took ownership, the changes made have been positive. Condition of the course is a lot better than it was and cutting down the knee-deep fescue grass makes the course more playable and more appealing to the eye. Alot of other work has been done with new tee boxes and less weeds in the grass. I look forward to seeing what other improvements are in store in the near future.
One caution is to control the cost of the green fees. I paid $23 on a deal on teeoff.com Regular green fee is $30. Getting a little steep for 9 holes. CAUTION!

Willow Hill is an underappreciated gem
I have been a fan of Willow Hill Golf Course for at least a couple of decades. Lately, the grounds crew has upped its game, so to speak, as the course is usually in excellent condition. It is links style, though the punitive tall grasses have been removed from the rough areas, or they are kept mowed to a reasonable height. I suspect that its history as a landfill keeps some golfers away. But it has a spectacular view of the Chicago skyline, and often, if you can get there in mid-morning, the play is very fast. It also has a driving range (unusual for a 9-hole course), and a new dome, though I haven't stopped in there yet.
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at Willow Hill Golf Course. We look forward to seeing you on the course soon for another great experience!

Hidden Gem
Tough enough course with some wind and beautiful views. Great range and practice area to tune up before the round. Kitchen onsite was not open when I was there. Would have enjoyed chilling at the end of the round with those great skies and some dinner. Next time as I'll be back.
