Rating 70.3

The 27-hole course at Schaumburg Golf Club is divided into three nines that are played in different 18-hole combinations that range from just over 6,000 yards to 6,700 yards. The Tournament, Baer, and Players Courses all provide a unique set of challenges but they share the same great conditions on their tees, greens, and fairways. Schaumburg has been host to numerous events since opening in 1928, including the U.S. Open Qualifying and Illinois Open Qualifying tournaments. It is a popular course since the club offers country club amenities and quality with the affordability of a public golf course. Schaumburg's Players/Baer combination starts out with a few tricky carries over water on the front nine and a more forgiving back nine. There are strategically placed bunkers throughout the course, however.

Good condition and pace of play, but not a HOT DEAL

I played the Baer/Players course and enjoyed the short length, condition, and pace of play. I didn't realize the course length and walking-only fee until I arrived, so I may not play the course again. There are other quality courses closer to me for the same green fee + cart fee. It's not a HOT DEAL as promoted.

Great Experience

The staff was very friendly and helpful from check in, to on course beverages to bar/restaurant after the round. We played the Players course and the signage could have been slightly better in terms of directions for a couple of the holes at the beginning of the 9. The starter did explain the zig, zagging thankfully or I would have had no idea where to go.

One of the best in the burbs!

This is consistently one of the best courses in Chicagoland….even during a drought! The course is always in fantastic shape. I shot my personal best for 9 holes (41), so it was a good day. The layout is great and allows you to use different clubs. I played the Players course, but Tournament and Baer are always in great shape as well.

Best conditioned course I’ve played this season

The greens and bunkers at Schaumburg GC are among the best I’ve played all year. I paid $45.00 with a small bucket to walk. Their Senior rates are 55 and older. The only downside was the pace of play. We had an 8:30 Monday tee time, we were the fourth group out. We didn’t get off the course until almost 1 PM, which on a Monday is unacceptable. We waited on every hole! That was the only disappointment
