West/South at Arrowhead Golf Club

About
There are 27 holes of championship golf available at Arrowhead Golf Club in Wheaton. The course spans over 220 beautifully wooded acres with not a home in sight. The holes are divided into three nines that can be played in different combinations. Throughout the entire golf course, water comes into play on 17 holes and there are 77 strategically placed bunkers. No matter what course you choose, you'll come across several challenges but they can all accommodate a wide range of skill levels. The West/South combination has several formidable water holes, including the seventh hole on the West, which is nearly an island green, and the South's par-3 fourth hole where you will have to carry a massive lake. In addition to the golf course, Arrowhead boasts a practice facility with a lighted range, putting and chipping greens and bunkers

Greens Are Back
I reviewed this course in April and said it was “borderline unplayable,” largely due to the courses obsession with ever-faster greens. Well, perhaps someone listened. I played again in August and for the first time in three years the greens were not cut so short that the sand under the grass was exposed. The greens were, in fact, nearly perfect. I shot 77 and I can’t blame any of my mistakes on the greens. Last time I registered my complaints with a staff member, he shrugged me off. In private, I think he took my concerns to someone in charge. Thanks for listening to your valued and concerned customers and making changes for the better. The course was borderline perfect, just like my drive on the treacherous West No. 6, which set up a tap in birdie.
Great Course
Course is challenging yet forgiving (wide holes). Fairways carry fantastically and the greens are fast. Had my longest drive on West hole 9, drove the ball 10 yards from the edge of the green! Will definitely play this course more in my future.
On an off note, the screen in my cart that tells hole number and yardage died 3/4 way through the round.
Favorite golf course !
Organized, clean, lots of amenities, course conditions top notch
The course was in great shape, and we had a great lunch in the restaurant afterwards
Country Club quality
I live in Glen Ellyn so I play Village Links often, and this was my first time at Arrowhead this year. I must say the Greens, Fairways, and Traps are phenomenal, country club quality. The East course is the best 9 as the other two are kind of back and forth par 4s.
The outside halfway house is convenient, but they gave me a cold Brat and a warm beer which I didn't notice till I was on the East #1 tee, so I didn't want to go back.
This place is a little pricey at $89 weekday rate, I got it on Golfnow for $70. Make sure you practice putting before playing bc the greens are lightning fast. Great course!
Need more staff.
Let me start by saying I really like Arrowhead, the layout is awesome with a nice mix of gettable and challenging holes. The issue here is pace of play and more importantly the wait at the turn. With three nines and a patio area that is adjacent to where everyone makes the turn or stops after 9 holes for refreshments; having just one person working the turn station is not enough. The line was 6 deep and most of those people were just hanging out after their round. No chance for anyone playing 18 to grab and go. Nice place otherwise.
Amazing course
Amazing course with challenging holes
Greens are extremely hard and rolling fast
Expect greatness
You know what you're getting here every time you play. Great course with great conditions, a friendly staff, and a good time.
