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.

Great staff decent course, layout not great.

In my opinion the course is too cramped. Fairways are too narrow and no separation to divide the fairways. I think for the ability level of the average player here there needs to be woods in between the fairways at the least. They are So narrow that on many hole you are risking injury form errant shots coming towards your hole, not the par 3’s, but you have players from neighboring holes playing off your fairway- often times players from 2 holes playing off your fairways OFTEN hitting right at you. Too dangerous. When players don’t know, they lack the ability level and instead of just picking up their ball or just hitting it directly back onto their fairway, they’re trying to Jordan Spieth the ball thinking they’re still gonna get on in two strokes but now they’ve just hit it further down the wrong fairway directly towards us where we’re waiting for them to hit so we can play our second shot. Happened on numerous holes. On the first hole a par 5 after our drives we went down to our balls. At that time we were in the line of fire of players playing off our fairway to their green- players behind them from that same hole teeing off if our direction also and players from another tee box teeing off right into us. We were in the line of fire of not 2 but 3 foursomes. Trying to keep track of 12 players, and their balls was too tall in order. And for $75 around that that’s about double with this course is worth. I would say that the staff is about the best I’ve ever encountered, but that’s not enough for me to come back. It’s too dangerous. And that’s just the first hole. For the rest of the day you have weekend warriors hitting into your fairway on many more holes. Maybe not all but far too many. If there were some type of woods enclosing the fairways I think you would still have the issues but much less.

Slow

Had a foursome in front of us that was very slow. I called the desk twice to have a marshal come out to speed them along. Never happened. At one point there was three open holes in front of them .

The front nine lay out was completely changed since I was there last. USAGHIN did not have the new layout, so since I use that to judge my distance, I had to guess the yardage. Certain fairways were dried up and burnt out. I have had many good rounds at this place but not now

Updated course layout

Course has gotten better over the years..New layout is soooo much better now. The blue tees make the course longer now which is a plus. Changes every hole now..I usually walk but got a cart bc it was close to 100 outside. Looks like they got new golf carts too

Kudos to Management............

After several months staying away, went back to find the overall course conditions significantly improved and the re-configured 3, 4, 5 holes is welcome. Historically wet course conditions will always be a 'challenge' but mgmt. has made great strides!

Great layout for interesting golf

I loved the course layout with interesting golf shots throughout. Good for both walkers and riders (we had both in our foursome). Food afterwards in the cafe was very good, too. I recommend bug spray lots of annoying bugs and some mosquitoes but was tolerable.

It's a short course with uncut tee boxes

I wasn't expecting the length to be so short. I wish "Executive Course" was in the description. Not many average size par fours.

Tee boxes are unkept, fairways are not much different than the rough. There was a mosquito problem on the course - I got 20 bites on all limbs, neck, etc.

I won't be back.

Overall

Good layout was very wet in areas need to raise the course up about 2 feet away from the standing water way to many wet areas . Greens where good , tees boxes need some work again raise them up out of the water . And the bunkers not great rock hard . Needs more TLC the course but would play it again liked the layout and some rally nice holes .

Uuuhhh

What just happened….. 11:20 tee time already behind. U don’t lose balls here, they get stolen. That’s what happens when u hit a good drive. It seemed to be busy for a random Tuesday.

I occ come here bc tee time availability is good and the players aren’t scratch players so takes some pressure off. Bartender made me a couple good drinks!
