About
Foss Park Golf Course has a convenient location in North Chicago that is an easy drive in from the city. It's a public course that is known amongst locals for being one of the area's best golf values. The layout is wide-open save for three holes that are framed by towering mature trees. The golf course strikes a good balance between being challenging and playable. The fairways are narrow and demand accuracy but the massive greens are more forgiving. Each hole offers a variety of different playing options, which makes the course appealing to a wide range of skill levels. The golf course has plenty of sand, plus water hazards come into play on several holes. There is also a driving range and large practice putting green available at Foss Park G.C.

Slow play
Course is in great shape but the group in front of us was really slow that there was a big gap between them and the group in front of them.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Foss Park Golf Course thanks you!
The only shortcoming would be the carts. The gas powered carts did not run well, frequently hard to get moving.
The course conditions, pace of play and the weather were absolutely wonderful.

Good day of golf
Excellent value. Tee boxes were in good shape. Fairways were in good shape. Greens rolled true with moderate speed. Bunkers were heavy. Good pace. Nice course and excellent staff service. The carts could use a upgrade but worked well. The course plays fairly. I will definitely return.

Easy and great
I played here for the first time. To be honest, I did not expect a lot first since the fee is so cheap. However, we all 4 players mentioned same that it’s so great, would come again. It’s wide, easy and well maintained. Will visit again.

Shaping up nicely this year
Fairways are well manicured for this early in the year., no puddles or wet spots. Greens are large and not very fast. Course is getting better each year. Great cours for the amateur and great early year pricing. Looking good!
