About
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.

Aerated bouncy greens
It's early in the season and i thought the the course was pretty good for April. They should have let us know though that the greens were aerated and sanded just a few days before. Therefore the greens were bouncy and unpredictable for putting. Courses need to post this information on GolfNow so that players know the condition.
Beautiful course layout, great for a long walking 18
Course was in great shape especially for the rain we had been getting. Only complaint is the carts have GPS connected and will shut off if your in an area you are not supposed to be which would be great but the GPS is not always accurate, I was on cart path twice and the cart shut off and made me back up to the "correct area" it wanted me to be. But other than that wonderful course at a great price from GolfNow!!
Good course/Bad Updates
Nice little track. Great pace of play. Not sure how the greens play because, not one staff member mentioned that the greens were aerated earlier in the week. Other aerated courses had alerts on GolfNow, but this course did not. So before you book, I would call to make sure that he course is playable.
Great Value
What a great day to get out for only the 2nd time this season. The course was nice, the staff was great and the weather held up. My only disappointment was the fact that they didn't serve food after the round and with the masters tournament going on just seemed like a missed opportunity for the club to enhance the golf experience.
Great Shape in March
As always met in parking lot and given a cart. Pro shop staff friendly and informative. Course was being readied for spring play with raking, mowing and general clean up. Lots of new sand in bunkers. Fairways mowed and greens sanded. Fun but challenging course due to par 3's from the tips(190-210) the day I played.
This course has great features
Course conditions Very very good.fairway and green is
so nice, can't complains. thank , I will play again.
Course condition
So many leaves on the course. Sometime it hard to located ball & very busy
Pretty decent course
Not overly challenging, this is a pretty fun course. Most holes are fairly easy-straight and not too long. Some bunkers come into play, and a little bit of water. GPS on the carts was great!
Love it! Wish I could get there more often.
Challenging and fun from the back tees!!
Good course. Good drainage.
Weather has been raining but yet the drainage and course was in good shape. Would play again and again. Friendly staff. Recommend.
Decent Course
The course would be above average if some of the turf issues. The greens were in relatively good condition they rolled pretty true.
It is not an overly challenging course, but for $19 it beats working.
Good test of skills
The holes are varied and require a number of different challenges to be faced if you are to tame this facility. Fun and tough at the same time.
It was okay, but not worth $50
Staff was grrat service, but not well maintained field. I would play $30 not $50
Course beat up
Used to love this course, but now the conditions are very poor. No ranger and no beer cart person.
Disappointed.
Starter was super friendly. Beer cart came up hole one. After the second hole, we waited on every shot. No rangers came. There was no drinking water. We never saw the bevvy cart again. Not a difficult course, but I would not recommend it to anyone. I had higher hopes about this course and it missed on everything.

Agreed about the notification of aeration on Golf Now. I've seen some courses post it in the fall and usually the rates will be cheaper than normal. Sucks to pay full price for sub par conditions when it easily could've been avoided.
