West/East at Arrowhead Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Arrowhead Golf Club in Wheaton offers 27 holes of championship golf. The entire course features water on 17 holes and 77 strategically placed bunkers. The course is divided into three nine-hole courses that can be played in different 18-hole combinations. The club opened in 1927 but two of the golf courses, South and East, were renovated in 2011, followed by the West nine a year after. The golf courses are all equally challenging but they each have a unique character. The West/East Course starts with the shortest nine but it also has one of the most intimidating water holes, the par-3 seventh, which has a green that is almost entirely surrounded by water. With such a challenging variety of courses, it is not hard to imagine why Arrowhead G.C. is considered one of the best municipal golf courses in the Chicago area.

Solid course
Played the south 9. Love how the course is secluded from houses and roads. Great decently challenging layout. Greens need a little work but it’s been pretty cold so not a big deal. Course drained well as it rained the night before. Will definitely play again and shoot 18 this time.
Great layout, greens need a little work
Great course and fun layout. Greens need a little love but it’s been pretty cold so all in all nice course to play. I’ll definitely be back.
Late fall golf.
Aeration was a few weeks ago so should have been ok. But heavy layer of sand topping on most greens killed putting. SHOULD HAVE BEEN A REDUCED RATE.
That said, this is a wonderful course to play. A lot of interesting slopes and uphill and downhill holes with some greens perched up on the hill. . Some dog-legs makes it interesting. greens are challenging but accessible.
Play this course and you will enjoy your time spent! I’ll be going back!
Staff always friendly. Other golfers have always seemed nice and courteous. Beautiful course .
Masterclass
One of the best course in area with extremely well knowledge and friendly staff. Great health up keep as well
Always Great
Arrowhead is always great. I’ve played all three 9 hole courses and they’re always in fantastic shape. Pace of play is never an issue. The staff is always friendly, Jim the starter is great! Would highly recommend to anyone!
Great Course.
Great golf course. Great layout. Challenging but very fair. Course is in terrific condition. Facilities are very nice and outdoor bar seating overlooking course is cool.
Beautiful course
I’m a beginner golfer and the west 9 was a little tight, meaning the other players were hitting into my fairway frequently and close to me, so it was a bit unnerving for a newbie like me. I would definitely golf here again on the other side. The driving range was great, greens well kept.
Great Course but Gimmicky Pins
The course was in great shape, but the pins were on top of crowns almost all the time. If you were above the hole, putted die pace and missed, the ball might roll 12 ft.

Played 9 hole at first. I liked it so much that I went back and golfed 18. Love the course very challenging and beautiful.
Impressive all around
I should have played this course much sooner had I known how good it was. Beautiful layout and very well maintained. This is a must stop for any golfer in Chicagoland. I will definitely play it again soon.
