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.

Good Course

Decent course layout. Fairways well manicured. Greens very fast due to not being filled in with spring/summer grass.

Pace of play very slow partially due to two par three's within three holes.

Course is over priced.

Overpriced

Arrowhead golf course is a great looking golf course as you see it from the outside. Playing it is a different thing in my opinion

They have 3-9 hole courses.We played the East-South courses not the West. On the East course they have 2 par 5’s at less then 450 yards and a par 3(#4) they set the pin in a make it or it’s rolling down farther then when you putted from. To bad the hole is over a water hazard and into a north wind that made it a good looking hole. The south course had a better layout of holes with some tight fairways and a lot of elevation.

I have played much better courses for half the price. Would I play here again? Sure if someone paid for it.

Great Course in Chicagoland Area

Arrowhead is like a home course to my buddies and I. Tend to play the Course several times a month. Greens are fast and true! Was very impressed by the greens as they would equivalent several Private Club's in the Suburbs of Chicago.

Fast difficult greens

Great layout that demands good course management and accuracy. Fast, sloped greens that require concentration and deft touch. Excellent conditions all around. $78 with cart is a bargain for a course of this quality, but normal rates may be higher.
