Odyssey Golf Course

Good pace of play. The back 9 was the highlight of the course. It had some nice hole designs, especially hole 16 with the island green and 18 coming into the very impressive looking clubhouse. The front 9 was okay. My foursome was immediately turned off by the state of the greens. They were filled with ball marks, gouges and dry spots. My buddy had a 6 ft putt hit a ball mark, pop up into the air and stop dead. With the golfnow hot deal the course was average value. I definitely wouldn't pay more. There are other courses in the area that are nicer and kept in better shape for the money. Also we were looking forward to a cart girl but instead got a cart boy?!

Overall experience very good. The play moved along and we enjoyed the courtesy cars for the water and refreshments.

Course in good condition. Pace of play was steady/fast.

Not in good shape. Greens need attention. Too many gease, ducks, and other birds living there. Not a bad layout, but they need to correct the problems.

Very nice course. Has challenge for every level of golfer.

I really like this course, I have played it 5 times in the last 2 years and I can say that it is easily in my top 5 courses in Chicago, I have played the Ravines and even that is behind Odyssey.

Nice layout pretty challenging...needs some work on the fairways and greens...Will play again...

The golf course property is located in a residential naborhood with luxurey homes carved throughout the course which was very nice to the eye when playing a round of golf. The back nine has some very challening holes 10, 13,14, 15, 17, and 18 are the most difficult holes coming home.

This course has some challenging holes, requiring strategic shot placement. Well designed layout .

Loved the course, but round turned into torture when a tensome, yes a tensome, slowed play to a crawl. Poor ranger kid had to try to break up the tensome, felt bad for him. Will play again early am to avoid the frat party.

Overall nice layout, greens need lots of work due to unrepaired ball marks

I get it. This week has been blazing hot. I can get by the dry areas. The greens however, Odyssey should be embarrassed. If you're going to keep soft greens, that's wonderful. The problem is that if you don't manage people repairing ball marks, or if you don't fix them as apart of your daily grounds keeping, it leads to horrendous conditions. I've never seen a 6 foot putt bounce around the way these did. I love this course and its design, but it's in the most disappointing conditions I've seen this year. The carts are even beat up, the tee boxes are rough as well. If you pay for than $30 for this course. You'll be angry you did.

I had heard from a friend that the course was in rough shape at the beginning of the season. I saw a deal come across on golf now that could not be passed up. When we got on the first tee, my friends assessment could not have been more wrong. The fairways looked as if I was the first golfer on them, the greens were some of the best in the Chicago suburbs, and you never lost a ball due to the mowing. I would play this course again in a heartbeat even at the normal price of 50$. The staff was great even the grounds crew if they saw you coming they cut the mowers, very respectful. Plus the Island hole was great. Truly a great value.

not a single ranger on the course. super slow play. the entire staff of high school kids. despite record rainfall, the turf is thin and yellowing. the cart was badly in need of repair.

Clubhouse staff, starter, beverage cart staff all very nice. Played twi-light. 1st 7 holes (twosome) 45 minutes. Last 11 holes, after we caught non twilight groups, 3 hr 45 minute. No ranger.
Fun course, good layout. Condition overall ok but a little rough around the edges. Concert at ampetheater in progress during round. Sound very clear during round, no bother, but unusual for golf. Wedding ceremony in full swing about 100' away when we played 18th. Listened to vows competing with ampetheater music while putting out. Strange contrast.
Would recommend twilight or discounted round, maybe not full fare.

Very good course that chalenges all skill levels. There is the right combination of water, trees, and sand to navigate around on each hole. The greens were in poor condition and I have never seen so many unkept ball marks before. This was the only blemish on the course I found.

I have played this course many times in years past and it is usually in pretty good shape. however this time it may have been in the worst shape I have ever seen any golf course. there were weeds and dandelions all over the course even in the fringe. I couldn't believe how bad it was especially given the somewhat premium price they are charging. Should be discounted until they get the course in decent shape. Barely playable in it's current condition

No easy holes. Some holes are longer than listed because of dog legs. Almost impossible to roll up to greens because of thick grass around all greens. Greens vary in size with some small and hard to hit and stick. Greens are neither fast or slow.

the course was in excellent shape, the greens were fast and true, the pace of play could have been faster, but other than that the experience was good

Once again thanks to the starter who zipped us to the front so my wife and I play as a twosome. We play fast but she's always more relaxed when it's just the 2 of us. Thanks again!
