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.

It was in very good shape. Took 4:10 for 18 holes. On a Sunday that’s a good pace

It’s a good track for all golfers. I wish some would play the correct tees

Please fix ball marks on greens. I fixed at least 5 on e e every hole

Playable

A very gettable course for anyone. Greens are very slow so good for begging players because your putting won't sail on you. Very tough for better putters because ball speed is so slow wether you chip up or putting.

Solid, Enjoyable Course

There is not too much to say for this course other than it had some unique holes, provided adequate challenge, and was in good condition. It was a bit overpriced and I thought the pace of play was a bit slow, but all things considered it was enjoyable.
