This place has more crab grass than I’ve ever seen before. The fairways are basically rough. There’s a Grand Canyon running through every single green.

Quick 9 Holes

Still early in the season so the course is a bit rough around the edges. Improvements can be seen taking place. For example the high reeds and bushes have been cut down along many of the water lines improving line of sight, especially on the 9th hole. That has helped tremendously, makes the hole more enjoyable instead of having blind shots. Look forward to playing here again as the weather warms up and the course continues to improve. Really enjoy how this 9 hole track is laid out.

Watch out for the water!

My friend and I decided to play nine holes at Palos Country Club on the spur of the moment. It was a perfect autumn day and we started at 12 noon.

It was my first time there and it had as much water as I had feared. Luckily, I was able to avoid any of that kind of trouble.

The course looked good except in spots where it appeared there'd been flooding earlier in the season and the fairway was bare. Greens were in good shape and fair.

The only issue, which I later brought to the attention of the course and they promised to take care of, was they hadn't had any updated slope or course rating and there was no way to enter a score for the course for handicap purposes. LIke I said, the manager couldn't have been nicer and promised to see that any needed re-rating would take place.

I will play there again.

Slowest round

They allow 5-somes to go out and the pace of play is horrible.

Challenging course with lots of water and bunkers. The fairways and greens need work.

Horrible Shape

The course was completely run down and no markers where the next hole was- I am sure if the course was maintained it would be a great course

Value but could be so much more

The course is beaten up: Tee boxes are weeds, flooding on several holes and no retaining walls in sight, abandoned and unmaintained cart paths, no sand in the bunkers, on the entire course, carts are in bad need of maintenance as well and more! It was kind of sad as it is a very pretty course and at it’s prime would of been amazing to play but lack of proper care is prevalent.
