Streamwood Oaks Golf Club

This course should not be underestimated. There are several challenging holes. Course was very wet so played longer than card, and it was windy, so it was a real test. Many regulars play poorly and slow things down - no ranger to quicken the pace - but it wasn't too bad - 2.5hr for 9 holes. GolfNow price makes it reasonable value for the $.

This is a nice course, staff is friendly, I enjoyed my round, BUT! As usual I arrived at the course about 30 minutes before my booked tee time. I have never played this course before, so by the time I got my clubs out of the car, and checked in at the pro shop, it was about 20 minutes before my booked tee time. The gentleman who checked me in said I would have to wait till my booked tee time to tee off, which was fine with me. I went outside and sat on a bench, and saw two people teeing off. Then a man came in and checked in after me, and immediately teed off, which was fine with me. Then after I sat there on the bench and watched him proceed with his round. I sat there for about 10 minutes and no one else was there to golf, so I went back into the pro shop and asked the gentleman if I could go tee off. He said NOPE, because I booked my tee time through GOLFNOW, I would have to wait until it was my scheduled tee time. I asked why, and he said that's their policy for people who book through GOLFNOW. So I went back to the outside bench, and sat in the penalty box for another 10 minutes, during which time not a single person had teed off. Doesn't make much sense to me ? ? ? ? ?

Good course, would play again, BUT. I arrived about 30 minutes before my tee time as I usually do. By the times I got my clubs out of the car, walked into the pro shop, and checked in, the time was still about 20 minutes before my booked tee time. The gentleman in the pro shop told me I would have to wait to tee off until my booked time. There were two people teeing off at that time. Then another man came, checked in, and went and teed off, and then no one was there after that. I waited a while and then asked the gentleman if I could tee off, and he said, NO, I would have to wait till my booked tee time. I asked why was that, and he said it was because I booked my tee time on GOLFNOW. So I sad in the penalty box for 15 minutes, and not a one person teed off during that time. I was told that is their policy with people who book tee times through GOLFNOW.
IS THAT WEIRD OR WHAT? ? ? ? ?

This is a 9 hole, but a legitimate 9, not a gimme. If you don't have time or money for a full 18, you'll get a great deal of satisfaction out of playing 9 here. It has some challenging holes with a lot of water, and some more moderate holes as well. Pace of play can be brutal at times, but this is a great course for beginners to get comfortable with the game. Plenty of women play here, so if you're looking to introduce your wife to the game, this is a great option.

Pretty some hole be challengable. It is flat course. Good walking for senior and female. Some what challengable for senior and female player. For senior advanced player wonderful. Pretty enjoyable 9 hole.

Started off poorly when the staff complained about getting a cheap price through golfnow. Complaining and saying we need to get rid of it. Worst course conditions I've played all year, lost a ball 3 feet into the rough. Not really rough, but 6 inches of grass and dandelions.

Needs more yardage markers. But the course is in good condition.

It's only a 9 hole par 36 course but it is challenging. Every hole has water that comes into play. It makes you think on every shot. Some dog leg holes require precise shots.
