Fun course in good shape but glacial pace

Waiting 3-5 minutes to take every tee and approach shot. No slow players, just course jammed full. Course is nice and in good shape.

Birthday Golf

Took my son here to play on his 21st birthday. He picked the course. Got greens fee thru Golfnow, got the hotdeal of day. Paired up with 2 older guys that were great to play with. Course while not the longest required some thinking whether or not to go for it with driver or lay up and still come out fine. Plenty of water in strategically places. Greens were consistent, well kept, bunkers were all in great shape. Pace of play was great, started at 1, done at 5:05, only waited on maybe 4 shots whole round.

Oak Brook

Plush fairways, everything was so green and well cut. Very nice course. Challenging. Had a twosome in front of us that was extremely slow but overall it was a great day of golf.

5some in front of us

Stuck behind a 5some who was playing back tees and couldn’t get off tee box. Took 3 hours for front 9 and left on a Monday afternoon. Wouldn’t do anything cause we booked via golfnow. Won’t be going back there

Not worth the price

Not worth $90. Greens did not run true and upkeep was not worth the money. Other courses in the area that provide more of a challenge and for less price. Also, outside of the staff at the concessions, staff do not make me and my friends feel welcomed. Even received cold stares from the regulars at the driving range. Did not make for a pleasant experience.

Fun, Challenging Course

Oak Brook is a fun and challenging course to play due to its extreme doglegs and amount of water hazards. The course was in good shape especially for early spring. I hope to make it back there soon.

Nice but slow and expensive

This is a fun course with a nice layout. The pace of play is very slow. There are also a lot of bozos that play here. Compared to other courses I frequent the golfers I get paired with here are usually odd or dickish

Enjoyable but very Slow Green

It’s a fun and challenging course to play. Several very interesting holes with dog legs and well positioned water. The fairways and tees are in great shape, but the greens were slow and bumpy (maybe at a 7-8). Not sure they had to be if they were rolled and cut but that did take away from the experience. Good value for the money.

Not worth the money

Extremely disappointed, for $90 a round, plenty of better places. Greens were top 5 worst I’ve ever played on. Won’t ever go back unless they make some changes or drop price.

First time won't be my last

Beautiful cool sunny day playing this fun and challenging course for the first time. Layout with so many dog legs with water in play was a lot but overall enjoyable. Greens had some patchiness but putted fairly true and consistently. Very nice menu and outdoor grill seating.
