Odyssey Country Club is a challenging layout that was designed by Harry Bower and two-time U.S. Open winner Curtis Strange. Strange won in 1988 and 1989, putting him in the company of only six others in the century-long history of the U.S. Open. His influence is apparent in all the strategic elements of the golf course as well as the risk-reward options. This demanding layout is not exactly beginner friendly. Staying on the fairways is crucial or your ball will be met with deep rough. Water is also a prominent presence on the golf course. Twelve holes either feature a water hazards or play along the water's edge. Odyssey Country Club's 16th hole is memorable for its tricky island green, which naturally draws comparisons to the famous 17th at TPC Sawgrass.

Sunday morning slow play, which can be expected. Every time I play here it is sloppy course conditions after minimal rain. Bad drainage maybe. But overall not a terrible course.

Friday afternoon

Had a better experience than the 5+ hour round in June. Good pace until 12th hole and then had 2 groups on a tee box for the rest of the round. Rangers were around, but didn't seem to move thing along. Course and greens chopped up due to outing earlier in the day. No one fixed their ball marks. Course played well and soaked up a downpour quickly. Will return!

Great public course

The course was in good shape. Pace of play was good, I teed off at 6:15am, and finished by 9:30. My only problem with the course was that there were many ball marks on most of the greens. Must have been some lazy people playing there lately.

Loved the layout of this course!

Didn’t know what to expect other than the classic Chicagoland Odyssey name. Well, I was pleasantly surprised. It was a really fun course. Interesting enough from championship tees it was nice and long, however, there are 4 separate tee box options that made it great for the family too. . It was a good hybrid of a classic/ modern style course. I am looking forward to playing a more competitive round here soon.

Solid course all around.

The greens were really good. True and firm. The military appreciation is awesome. Wish they had logo golf balls(that’s just me lol) will definitely be back. Starters and staff were top notch.
