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.

Nicks Jist

I canvassed the Baer 9 hole on foot & it was a good way to get my steps in for the day. Maybe I should invest in one of those rolling golf bags?

Rude Warden

Warden hassled us every hole on the back 9, telling us to hurry up or be kicked off. We kept pace and finished 18 holes within 4 hours. Despite nobody behind nor in front of us, he kept coming by.

Solid course for the money.

Schaumburg golf course is one of my favorite courses. For a municipal course it is manicured and has greens that are some of the best in the area. It is always a fair test and a course I never get tired of playing.

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.
