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.

Nice course
Course was in very good condition for having moderate rain the day prior to playing. Grounds crew were on top of sand traps to make playable. Only complaint was cart path only but I do understand their decision to keep course in top shape.
A decent round
This course is pretty nice and GPS in the carts are a nice touch! My main complaint is that we lost so many good balls in the rough, it really shouldve been mowed. If you missed rhe Fairway balls were impossible to find. That was really annoying!
Old favorite, not the same anymore
I've played this course for the past 7-8 years, always been a great track and great time. Today was quite different, on hole 5 our group of 3 were hit up on by a single. He proceeds to drive up stare at us and ask "you got a problem?" We proceed to try to let him play through, which he then does not want to while also sending profanities our way. I go to grab my phone to call the pro shop. As soon as I grab my phone he picks his ball up and heads to the next tee. Immediately after, the group behind us drives up and tells us the same thing happened to them. Staff said they got the guys name at least, I was told he a warning. Tons of unfixed divots on greens, raised prices as well. No cart girl the entire 18 on a Sunday. The track itself is still ok but it's clear the clientele has taken a significant step down. Barely better than a cook county/Chicago park district course in terms of clientele. Saw a lot more hackers out there than I'd seen before as well.
Course review
The course was in great shape, fairways and greens were well maintained. The employees working at the cart check in were very friendly and helpful. Great clubhouse and staff.
Chevy Chase
Course was in good condition even with the recent heavy rain. Grounds keeper was on top of the bunkers and course was well manicured. Highly recommend playing here.
Starter rude
The starter is rude he told us that he will cancel our tee time,so we went to the pro shop and ask why he said that to us so the pro shop talk to him and said we are booked and paid already.
Good Course, challenging in a good way
Played at 7:20 in the morning. Dewy grass made roughs thick and slow. Front 9 very punishing for being off-fairway. Good variety of Par 3 lengths.
Good course, crabby workers
CC is a very good course. No driving range, short game area and putting green is for lag putts only.
Course layout is challenging but fair for ALL levels. Course is also meticulously maintained. There also was an employee to meet me in parking lot which was awesome! Unfortunately, after getting into the playing area, staff were having a bad day or the starters and rangers need to think of getting a new job. Crabby, irritated and couldn’t crack a smile or have a conversation. Maybe just a bad day, just didn’t know there are bad days on a golf course. A little pricey, but it is a nice course.
Pretty mid
Course was slow pace of pace. Had to wait 5 minutes at every tee box. Not a great layout. Very tight holes as all 18 holes are squeezed next to eachother on a rectangular piece of land. Kept on good condition though.
