Foss Park Golf Course

The staff is always very friendly, the course is always in good shape. Check this place out, if you haven't.

Course in good shape but bring a pillow to nap while you wait.

I played a round of golf last weekend as I wanted to try different courses close by. No problem finding the place, ample parking. I had booked by GolfNow, when I checked in I was asked to show the confirmation on my phone. Paid $2 deposit for the cart key which was a little surprising as I havent had a experience like that before. The person who checked us could have been a little bit more friendly. We went to the cart and didnt see a scorecard tagged so had to go back and get one. Would have been nice if the person who checked us in could have pointed it out to us in the first place. The starter also didnt seem too friendly and just asked us to begin. I have had nicer starters inquiring if it was our first time, telling us something about the course. We were the only cart on the first tee so it wasnt like it was very busy. Anyway course itself is nice, generous fairways and big greens. It has been maintained nicely as well. There are some electric lines running through the course which I dont care for too much but didnt seem to affect us too much. There is a beverage cart, but the person just seemed to go past by us without even slowing down to see if we needed any drinks. Overall the course is nice and but for the staff I may have thought to go back and play there.

Play was a little slow.The course was in great shape. I would recommend playing this course if you have never played.

Mix of some pretty sporty holes with some pretty pedestrian holes. Overall not bab.

The course is pretty flat with just a few difficult tee shots. I was able to swing away on several drives because there isn't much trouble missing fairways. Even on holes I played hybrids and irons off of tees i was still able to hit greens. Large flat greens are easy to hit but can easily result in three putts if lag putting isn't good. I was a little concerned with the pro shops atitude about my golfnow tee time, they seemed a little annoyed. There was no time management on course and pace of play was pretty slow. Overall s decent value with discount. I would never play course again at full price.

well kept clean good food very friendly staff good layout cart to car pickup and drop off to car will go again

This course is a good value. Wide open, easy course with a fast pace. I would have liked to see more obstacles, but overall was a decent course for under $20.

Had not played here for quite a few years, but never remembered it being in the condition I found it today.

Good course with some challenging holes that require accurate tee shots. This is not the most picturesque course, due in part to the high-tension power lines running through it - but it's not surrounded by houses, either. Plenty of tree-lined fairways and a creek with a few ponds. The greens and fairways were in very good condition and the rough was manageable - you could find your ball and hit out of it but it was a fair challenge.

It was a little back logged at the first tee. We liked the course for its old feel and playability. The slope rating is right yet it feels
more challenging on some holes. The downloaded directions to the course were way off, however and we ended up driving around for an extra half hour. You need to fix that.

Excellent Value with the "Foss Card"
Tremendous place to hone your skills for other courses in the area. Not a lot of bunkers on the course, but enough tree hazards to make up for it.

Golfing many public courses in Chicago, this is a great deal. First of it has decent length which is hard to find around the city. Secondly the course was in good condition, especially compared to Forest Reserve courses around the area. While the staff and landscape leaves something to be desired (there are high voltage power lines running through the middle of the course). Overall, you get more then what you pay for. Very forgiving course but the greens roll nice and provide a solid challenge with the flat stick.

Congrats to North Chicago Park District. 1st time I've played course and was greatly surprised at how well maintained and how large the course property is. The greens run true and were fast even with some rain drops. Thanks!

When I booked this tee time I was slightly concerned that the course may be a little rough as I had not played there before. When we arrived to the course I was immediately impressed with the facilities. The putting green and driving range were very well maintained. The Starter was very informed and very friendly. The fairways were great and the greens were very consistent. The only thing I was slightly unhappy with was the golf cart I was driving was a bit slow and had seen better days. However, this did not affect my opinion on the course or my decision to play it again in the near future.

Like the course. Have played it a few times. GOLF NOW could use a few more tee times in the early to mid morning range. would plat it a lot more if you did.

Except for the slow play this course was very enjoyable.

Nothing fancy, but well maintained with friendly staff, a nice putting green and driving range. For the money I will be back.

As always Foss Park was in great shape. Moved very well and we were only a twosome.

Pace of play for a week day morning -- ridiculous --
mainly caused by groups playing from the back tees --
where they did not belong.
At one time, there were 5 groups on the par 5 13th hole.
