Hidden gem with fantastic greens
First time after driving past it hundreds of times. Not overly long, but a good challenge. The bunkers were great and the greens were quick and true. I will definitely be back to play it and not screw up the 11th hole, 2nd shot can only be on the green or right which can't be seen from the fairway .

Greens as described, fast. Love pretty much everything about it. NOT FOLLOWING COVID PROTOCOLS
Staff when entering pro shop was indifferent at best. Great course. Super fast and true greens. Well taken care of. RAKES IN BUNKERS, STAFF NOT WEARING MASKS IN PRO SHOP, etc.

Starter is very rude
Showed up 5 mins to my tee time with my partner. There was a 2 some ahead of us already at the tee box and the starter was NOT at the first hole (no idea where he went). Once the 2 some teed off, my friend and I drove up the the tee. As we drove up, the starter finally decided to show up. He them reprimanded us saying we were supposed to start with the 2 some ahead of us because there was a 3 some behind us. He was very rude about it and was expecting us to do his job for him (again, he wasn’t at the first tee).
Very unfortunate as this was my first time playing at this course, which I enjoyed, but was otherwise ruined by this starter who wasn’t doing his job and was slowing down the course.
Some of the best greens in chicago
Have played a bunch of public courses all summer and none of the other courses had greens comparable! Can’t wait to play here again - open fairways and minimal delays on the pace of play

Nice course!
Played on Labor Day weekend and got 18 done in 4:20. Good pace on the course, little to no wait times on tees. Friendly staff. Course was in good shape; greens were well taken care of.

Good course, quick play!
I had a good round - pace, company, and average score. Easy to book through GolfNow. Paid for the cart only.

Poor condition course
I have played this course around 5 times over the last four (4) years and it used to be in outstanding condition.
Not this time. The fairways were pretty bad. Very hard turf and uneven with some weeds. For the amount of money they charge for green fees it is not worth it.
Maybe I'll give it another try in a couple of years.
Hi jumbo823. We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the teams in charge so they can work to make changes. Thanks for visiting Wilmette Golf Course. We hope to see you again in the future.
They have great greens!
So, this course has great greens. It's tree lined. Pretty simple layout. Nothing offensive. But their fairways are a mix of dwarf bluegrass and some sort of corse fescue. The ball doesn't sit up & chipping is difficult given your wedges stick. So your technique has to be on point. Overall it was a pleasure to play here, enjoyed the challenge. But doubtful that I will return, given other courses have bent grass fairways in our area.

Good course, not so kind staff
Never felt so un-welcomed at a course before. Started off the day having to argue that we had purchased a cart with the tee time on Golf Now which they wouldn't honor until we showed them the email receipt. Not so kind staff - our group was rushed and passively-aggressively pushed along (being only 3 mins behind schedule) after the front nine. We had a group behind us, but did not once have them come close to waiting behind us.
Good course, not so great experience with the staff.
Nice course. Hard greens.
Nicely maintained course, but the greens were in desperate need of water - at times it was somewhat like putting on concrete. Although, there hasn't been much rain.
The pace of play was slow, not sure if there was a league a few groups in front of us.

Still in style
I learned how to play golf here 30+ years ago - it’s still a great test. The course setup is very fair to the player and gives you plenty of options off the tee. The food is good and the beer is cold! Congrats to Jamie and crew.
