St. Andrews Golf & Country Club - St. Andrews Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Opened in 1926, in the "Classical ERA" of U.S. course development, St. Andrews Golf & Country Club has been recognized as the oldest family owned-operated golf course in Illinois.
St. Andrews Golf & Country Club was originally built in 1926 as a rival to the Chicago Golf Club. Since then, the club has built its own reputation and stands out for its two championship golf courses and top-ranked practice center. The St. Andrews Course is the club's original layout before the Joe Jemsek Course was added in 1929. It is also the longer of the two golf courses. The club and course draw their name from the famous Scottish club known as the "home of golf," but the course is far from being a seaside links. Instead, the mostly flat layout weaves through mature trees. The golf course offers a challenge with tight, tree-lined doglegs and large, contoured greens framed with sand bunkers. It has a memorable finish with a par 4 that features a water hazard along the entire right side of the fairway.

The course is in excellent condition. I attribute this to the large number of people walking the course. Tee boxes show the activity but divots are well sanded. Greens consistently good.
Pace of play was outstanding. Our foursome (2 walking, 2 riding) finished in 3.5 hours without rushing
There are some large patches of clover in the short rough that will completely hide a mishit ball. (Ask me how I know)

Bait and switch
$19 sounds like a great deal...until you arrive and pay $20 more for a cart. Probably should have paid better attention when booking. Still a great deal though for a nice course and will play again!
