Rating 72.9

Arrowhead Golf Club is home to a 27-hole course that is considered one of the best municipal plays in the Chicago area. The holes are divided into the South, East, and West nines, which can be played in three different 18-hole combinations. Water hazards appear on 17 of the 27 holes and there are 77 bunkers strategically placed throughout. Each golf course provides a challenging but different round. Although the club opened in 1927, the South/East Course was renovated in 2011. The course retained its challenging character but it was made more playable for a range of skill levels. In addition to the water and bunkers, there are mature trees throughout the course. Arrowhead G.C. also boasts a comprehensive practice facility that includes a lighted driving range, putting green, chipping green, and bunkers.

Nice Course

Everything is great, except for every time I play there's Always a lot of mosquitoes, and nats flying around. So bring some bug spray. Other than that, the course is great.The east is a little tough, though.

Arrowhead always delivers

Arrowhead never disappoints is always consistently good annd pace of play for 9 was perfect. Our Ranger was on the group a couple groups in front of us to keep pace of play annd stopped to apologize but we weren’t waiting at any hole on a very busy Sunday with beautiful weather. I’m a 15 handicap and absolutely love this course. It’s close to my house a great value for what it offers and the clubhouse is beautiful. Greens were smooth and quick as usual. Def recommend to any handicapper!
