Oak Brook Golf Club

Is it that hard to let prospective golfers know you are having an outing that day? There were groups in front of us who quit and I’m glad they did otherwise our five hour round would have six. I’m disappointed in the lack of communication.

So I kind of consider this my home course even though it's miles away, I like that they offer a grass range, delicious clubhouse food which you can order from a phone box on the ninth tee....

Overall I would give this place 5 stars with one exception....it seems to me that in order to be hired for the starters position you have to have the following three qualifications:

1. Be rude or grumpy

2. Don't know how to properly pair up couples with singles, with walk ons

3. Hold some grudges against those that are up on the tee box, either because they are playing, they are cubs fans, or whatever they feel disliking about you on that day

Other than that the place is fantastic...inside everyone is respectful and I'd say the most respectful are the rangers on the course.

I wish they brought down their rates a but because there are still other options in the area that are just as good like Willow crest

It's a great course. Hard to get on - make your tee time in advance

Nice layout 2 completely different 9’s. Greens are tricky you need to stay below the hole if possible. Breakfast sandwich was very good and reasonable.

Copious amounts of doglegs that are far too sharp, a few trees too close to the front of the tee box in the middle of the necessary shot trajectory

Tis only April during a late spring however the course is in great shape. The sand traps are in good condition. The greens are fast. It is a few shekels more than other local courses however the place is always in great shape.

for this time of when the grass is dorment they rolled the greens . It was like putting on a pool table! which would have been awesome if 1 green was flat ! Very challenging pin placements all round. Had a great time.

Course held up well after several inches of rain . Very pleased with greens after 10 day aeration.25 dollars on golf now . Great deal. Great time.

I cannot give it a complete rating because I gave up after #10. Granted, it was a picture perfect Sunday for October in Chicago so the course was very busy. The course itself is in perfect condition from tee to greens. My one complaint about the course, which would probably improve the pace of play somewhat, would be to cut the first rough a little shorter as the ball would just disappear as soon as it landed making it very difficult to find your ball.

The course was in great shape but going into early October shooting on a Thursday and it was a little pricey !!!

Will not rush out to play again. Slow Saturday round (understandable) but did not finish. No sign of marshal, but again crowded weekend golf. That I can stomach if the couse is worth it, this course is not. Not my cup of tea. Very crammed in feeling. Too many short sub 400 yd par 4's, cheesy dog legs, flat terrain. Hole 16 is clearly the nicest, most interesting hole imo. At least we got to play it before night fall. Won't play again any time soon. Way too many other nicer, better value rounds to play.

Started off a little slow, but a call to the ranger got things moving.

Course was in great shape and the greens were very challenging.
