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.

Kinda EZ

Very open course. Wide fairways, trees which never came into play and only a couple hole with water. Overall just okay and it took 4 1/2 hours to play.

Good course nice value

The pace was bad people in front were putting out each hole removing the flag and were walking. We were in carts took us 4.5 hours we waited every hole. My sons birthday and he plays course often probably play other places before this again Deerfield winnetka Glencoe wilmette are all good options. Should have someone monitor the pace of play could have let us play through at 10.

Tremendous value

Played a 6am Sunday round here and will definitely be back. Fairways and greens were in great shape. Fun layout that is challenging but not overly so. The early round made for a quick pace of play - finished in under 4 hours. One of the best values in the area.

Like usual, course was great

I have played CC a handful of times and each time it is challenging yet fun. The grounds crew takes very good care of the greens and the fairways are always well maintained. WIll definitely be going back a couple more times this year

Good course with poor pace of play.

Paired with a great group of guys but unfortunately almost a five hour round of golf. Slow play really took away from the experience waiting and waiting each hole particularly on the back nine.
