Meadows Golf Club

About
Meadows Golf Club in Lincoln Park offers a casual and enjoyable round for players of all skill levels. For more of a challenge, golfers can try the blue tees while the white and the red tees are more forgiving of errant shots. The course sprawls across mostly flat terrain but there are a few subtly elevated greens to contend with. The layout is situated amidst native wetlands, which come into play on many of the holes. The back nine is more challenging than the front, with the toughest hole being the par-5 13th. At 455 yards, it's not a long hole but there are two large fairway bunkers and an elevated green that is surrounded by even more sand. The best view on the golf course can also be enjoyed from the middle of the green on this hole.

Done with this course.
I gave this place a second chance, won’t be back. Went on a Sunday and everything from the guy at the pro shop (extremely rude) to the types of players (horrible etiquette, pace of play). Extremely overpriced. Would be different if it was a $20 course but $65 is unacceptable for this course. Course is not well kept at all. Avoid
Awesome staff… not awesome course
Saturday 6:50 tee time. 5 hrs…. Front 6 holes are muddy. If cart path only condition, dont even allow people to ride. People were strolling back and forth. If the course becomes walking only except for handicap person…. May be ok. Its a short course. People probably walked more from cart and back. Bunker was as hard as walking path.
Back nine was better. But pace still bad.
Greens were rolling true
Drink girl was clueless. Holding up play because she was driving back up a hole as the group was teeing off. Entire foursome and the group waiting watched her drive up 300 yards. And she asked us if we wanted to get a drink as we were walking toward the parked car.
Oh. Bugs…. But not much you can do in a swamp
TLC
With a little bit of effort and a bunch of money this corse could be a nicer place for beginner golfers myself included!

Poor place of play

Greens suck
Will never go there again.

Hello u000007573879, unfortunately due to the recent rainy weather, bugs are an issue at every course in the area and our greens are the best around. We apologize that you may be upset with the fact that the course is busy and that you cannot have your way. -Patrick

Nice course and good value, but
Overall very happy with the course but played when the league was starting and they just put them in wherever that thought would fit and that slowed things down a bit. If it wasn't league day it would have been fine. Overall good value for the money and the staff are very nice.

Hello, triad. Thank you for visiting us at Meadows Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Crowded course, but it does move. Course actually in very good condition and greens are very fast. Not really challenging for scratch golfers, but fun for everyone else. I'm 71 a fairly good golfer,used to be a 3 but now about 12 and have a fun running around . I play in afternoons and haven't had a chance to rate the bar.

Beware
The course was very beat up on some holes. Starter was very rude. Some of the tea boxes are being worked on but only half the sod was replaced. Would not recommend

Comedy show
I understand they're trying to improve the course but they charge full price for a poorly conditioned course. they allowed a foursome in front of us to play with 2 sets of clubs. So these knuckleheads were sharing clubs on the tee,the fairway and of course sharing a putter on the green when they eventually got on.5 hours for 18 holes because of sheer silliness

We apologize for the pace of play issue you experienced. We always try to keep a great pace when having our golfers on the course. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!

Miserable staff, course in bad shape
Our round started horribly after the two tee times after us were giving carts before us, after paying for carts we were left having to walk while the group behind us were given carts. Our round finished as the sun set. While coming in we were cursed out by a staff member Jay due to coming late, however we were never told to wrap it up or given a time restriction. It was extremely unprofessional for paying customers to get cursed out at the facility.. reading these reviews it doesn’t seem like it’s the first time costumers have been mistreated. Safe to say we won’t be back.

Best bang for your buck
I play the course 2-3 times a year when I’m in town. If I lived in the area it would probably be my home course. Staff Is great, greens are true, and they seem to out more money in to it every year.
