Chevy Chase Country Club (formerly known as Traditions at Chevy Chase Country Club) in Wheeling is one of Chicagoland's top public golf facilities. Thomas Bendelow designed the golf course in 1925. The classic layout remained largely the same until 2002 when a major renovation updated the course and made it more challenging. The layout now has deep pot bunkers lined with tall native fescue that border the generous, rolling greens and undulating fairways. Though it is more challenging than it was, the golf course still offers a player-friendly round. Four sets of tees also ensure that golfers can play to their skill level. The course finishes with its signature hole, a par 5 that features water both left and right of the landing area off the tee. Three massive bunkers and yet another pond all fiercely guard the green as well.

Always a fun round

CC is a nice sporty course that’s not too demanding but fun nonetheless. Plenty of length from the back tees at 6,600 yards. Always in good shape. If they improved the quality and the quantity (too much) of sand in the bunkers there wouldn’t be much negative to say about it.

Golf review

The course was very nice. We got out a little early and played in about 90 minutes on the front and then caught up to a group and it was a couple hours for the back. It was in good shape and our group really enjoyed our round as well as the 19th hole after.

good course missing some essentials

i enjoyed my round of golf. great grass to play off of, a friendly starter greeting us on the first tee, and a nice GPS system in the carts! my main complaint was the lack of a concession cart, or a halfway house. would’ve been nice to have access to beverages in the middle of my round. they didn’t even have water stations on the course…

Disappointed

We had a morning tee time and had taken work off to golf a nice round of 18 and planned it for weeks. To my dismay the course was having work done to it and we had to play the front 9 twice. I wish they would have let us know ahead of time as I would’ve moved to a different location for my round. Nice day but a disappointing round!
