Schaumburg Golf Club - Tournament/Baer Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Schaumburg Golf Club is a 27-hole course that is divided into three nines: the Tournament, Baer, and Players. The nines are played in three different 18-hole combinations that offer a variety of different challenges. The nines have unique designs but all the courses share an undulating terrain and well manicured tees, fairways, and greens. Due to the quality of the design and excellent conditions, the course has been host to numerous events over the years including the U.S. Open Qualifying and Illinois Open Qualifying tournaments. The Tournament/Baer combination features plenty of water on the front nine, while the back nine is more forgiving but still dotted with strategically placed bunkers. Schaumburg is a popular course not only because of the design but also because of the country club setting at public-course prices.

Country club level golf-muni prices
Schaumburg GC is hands down my favorite course in NE Illinois. The course is almost always in great condition. Greens are fast but soft, letting you actually stick shots on the green. Fairways manicured and cut close with challenging rough, rewarding you for keeping it down the middle. With exception to some water hazards and backyards, very little OB on the course. Meaning if you tend to be inconsistent off the tee, this course won’t leave you running to the pro-shop to buy more golf balls at the turn. Hole length and layout is fun with very little curve balls, but not boring or dumbed down. Course will challenge high handicap players due to length of certain holes and pace of greens. But all players will enjoy their time due to the quality-to-price ratio. If you are a local you need to play this course at least once or twice.
slow play
Beautiful day to play, unfortunately we were behind pace 8-10 minutes by hole 4 and then ended up 25-28 minutes behind the whole back nine. Needless to say not 1 RANGER to come assist or lend a hand with relief, but there was plenty of wasteful spending of cart staff sitting near parking to stop E-bike riders from penetrating the course. Head staff guy at end of round during my Rant to him said he apologized and they needed to do better but unfortunately they FAILED. 77,000 golfers passed through the course last year which is well over $3-4 million just on golf, so if you raise your prices then we the Golfers expect better results.......DO BETTER.
Always great
Schaumburg seems to always tick all the boxes. One of the best overall courses in Chicagoland.
Great Muni!
Schaumburg is one of my fav municipal/park district courses in the area. Having 3 9s is a great bonus to keep it fresh. Course was in great shape with only minor areas under repair. Greens rolled perfectly. Range with top tracer is also a nice perk.
Nice course
The starter was especially great on the Baer course. The course is always fun and challenging. The holes were a little raggedly around the edges though. Don't need to make putting any harder.🙂
One of the better public course options in Chicago burbs
This course has 27 holes and a fantastic layout. Tight, target golf rewards good shirts but is not overly punishing to the occasional wayward shot. Clubhouse food and drink options are fantastic. Practice area is a bit small. Bunkers, fairways annd tees are well maintained and greens were fast and firm. A fun round.
One of the better public courses in Chicagoland
I save 5 stars for private or superbly manicured with memorable golf holes but this is definitely one of the better ones. Still early in the year but top notch facilities. I’d give it 4.5
Good start to the season
Considering the time of the year, the course was in very good condition. We played the Players / Baer combo and there was very short waits on Par 3s throughout the day. The toptracer range was also really nice to warm up, but beware that wayward shots enter playable areas on both sides.
It would be helpful if during check in or the starter lets the group know if the halfway house is open or not. We had to go inside of the restaurant and redirected to the bar for food and limited snacks. We ended up backing up the 10th teeth for a few minutes as we waited for our drinks.
Overall a very good experience considering the season.
