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.

Worst management and worst course managing.
People who work there did not know anything about golf. They just easy working young people. Reception in golf shop does not know about score card. Golf cart guy does not provide cart on time... starter is young guy who smoking at starting point and just checked name and make play person, not by scheduled time... no ranger some people just playing same hole turn around turn around... I will not play anymore with this course.

There were no carts available, 16 were in disrepair .There was no starter or staff control on the course. When we were finally given a cart we were sent off the tenth without tine to warm up or practice putting.
Thunderstorms ended our round after nine holes, and when we asked about a rain check, the staff replied “We don’t issues rain checks based on weather”!
We are never going back there.

Terrible outing. Tee boxes were so long you needed 4 inch tees. Course wasn’t in bad shape just tee boxes were too long or too fluffy. The REAL ISSUE IS PACE OF PLAY. UNLIKE ANYTHING I HAVE EVER SEEN. There was a Six-some on 1 green and literally 4 groups on another hole from tee to green. I took pics but I can’t upload here.

Dandy course
Has a few very tight challenging holes, a few long playing holes and a few that are pretty easy
Well rounded course
First tee always seems crowded but the pace levels out pretty quickly

Hi. We would love to hear more about your 4-star experience on our course. Please tell us what we can do to earn that last star, and thanks for golfing at Foss Park Golf Course!
Second time playing this golf course this year. Over all a nice course. The only issue that I experience was after the 3rd and 17th hole. Course management should really post signage with arrows stating which direction is the next hole. I got lost trying to locate the 4th tee. I usually play off on the longest tee’s which are the Blue tee, except that only have White, Black, and Yellow.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of our golf course. We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced and we appreciate your suggestion of providing better signage. We hope that aside from that, you had an enjoyable time playing our course and we hope to see you again soon.

Great course for your spirits!
I loved playing this course bc it’s very open! If you’re looking to work on a few things without getting penalized, this is the course for you. Open fairways and big greens, what’s not to like.
Hello. Thank you for visiting us at Foss Park Golf Course. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Lay out is nice
This golf course has never changed . It’s always been spongy on the tees , hard as rock fairways and even more harder ground in the “rough” areas . Greens are flat , hard to “get” the roll ( slow) and no undulation at all,,,, some of them looked like Camouflage . Traps are to be expected for a golf course of this nature . The layout is decent enough though . Personally I can’t justify the $48 mid day price on GolfNow and the $$ deposit needed for the golf cart key , when you got MidLane , Bonnie Brook , Veterans Memorial around the same area for around the same price.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a detailed review of our golf course. We apologize for any negative experience you may have had and will take your feedback into consideration to make improvements in the future. We appreciate your business and hope to see you again soon.
This course needs signage
This course is badly in need of signage in a few critical places so you can find the next hole. After the 3rd hole, there is no sign or anything about how to get to the 4th tee, which is quite far away in an unexpected direction. If you go to what seems like the next reasonable tee, you wind up on the 14th hole. Also, after the 16th hole, again no signage, even though the 17th tee is a long curving route away. They badly need some signage here so golfers new to the course can find their way around!
Hi. Thank you so much for your feedback. We are glad you had enjoyed your time at Foss Park Golf Course, and pride ourselves on delivering the best experience possible.
We hope to see you again soon!
Friendly staff
Starter and shop guys were friendly. Pace of play was decent. Had some people walking and I was playing by myself so that’s understandable. Great course for the price.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the friendly service and pace of play during your round. We strive to provide an enjoyable golfing experience and we appreciate your positive feedback.
