Rating Snapshot
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.

Long Time Favorite
Always liked Foss, have been playing it for decades. Not as much recently because of price increases and lack of specials. Course was in really good shape. With a couple exceptions, greens were in great shape!
Very average
Overpriced. Slow play. Carts are garbage. Conditions are average at best and not consistent.
Continuing problems
Foss Park GC NEVER has enough carts to go around! Even though I pre-pay for use of an electric cart, when I arrive at the course, there ALWAYS is a shortage of carts and I have to wait (often missing my tee time) for someone to finish playing and turn his/her cart in so I can use it. This has happened to me 3 times -- and twice I had to walk !! NOT GOOD ...

Blustery day
Nice course. Fairways are narrow and many are densely tree lined. Straight off the tee is a must. If you get into the trees, take your medicine. Staying in the fairway gives ample scoring opportunities. Large receptive greens which rolled true

Slow play… with no carts
45 minute wait for carts mid-day…. Cart shortage but still take tee times knowing they cant service everyone… that’s frustrating
