Eaglewood Resort and Spa

Eaglewood is well kept, interesting, thought provoking, and challenging. This is a much more difficult 6,000 yard course than usual!

We played on a Wednesday morning and it was especially busy- have a 30 person outting. The pace of play was a little slow because of the group in front of us but we didn't mind. What did bother us was the multiple tree trimming crews around the course having no regard for the players shooting or riding to the next hole.

Eaglewood can, at times, be a long round, but usually it's a good experience & value. Don't be fooled either. It's a short course, by anyone's definition, but your have hit shots throughout the round. All in all, it's a course worth playing.

A little short at only 6000 yards but base some nice holes on the back 9

This is a beautiful rolling golf course. Lots of sand and trees. The club house is very nice and the food is excellent.

the course was very nice challenging greens. the pace of play is very slow but I would defiantly go bad most likely during the week when its not so busy.

Their are no water drinking stations on the course. You will die of THIRST or have to buy their bottled water. Their roughs are too high. If you hit one into the rough, you are going to spend a lot of time looking for your ball, because it buries itself below the norm.

Pace of play was ridiculously slow. None of the course staff seemed to give a rats.

All in all, Eaglewood is a nice course that is reasonably-priced and close to my home (within 5 miles). It's a fairly easy course with not many obstacles to avoid when playing. I understand that most courses are just getting ready for golfing season, but it seems like Eaglewood had fallen far behind in that process. Granted, they DID provide each of us with a free hot dog and can of beer due to the greens being damaged from the recent winter, however we all would have rather paid for the hot dog and beer in order to avoid watching our putts jump and bounce off of the holes and blemishes on the greens. Also, the grass didn't seem to be cut very well, as finding our golf balls after a hit was quite the task (and we didn't hit into the rough very often). It was an okay experience and yes, I will probably return to golf. However I am still hoping they step it up a bit and get their course truly ready for their customers.

Short track , condition of greens are rather poor on some holes , but management is aware of this and discounting play.

Very nice facility overall and for the high handicapper this course is going to make you feel great , few places to get in trouble and a score in the high 80's is obtainable.

Fun place -

The greens were in very poor condition, many others courses in the area are much better.

I did not like the greens because it was very slow and had a disease.
They offered free food but it took me 15-20 min. to get a hot dog, that's not good when your trying to keep pace.
Some holes to tee box where close together.

A beautiful course with the rolling terrain and big trees. It had a hard winter on the greens but they are coming back slowly.

Had a pleasant day of golf. The course is short for long players but the layout and scenery makes up for it. Greens took a hit this winter but looks like they're coming back well. Will have to come back and play once the greens grow in.

While it was car path only, the group ahead of us had several holes open in front of them. We waited on the tee and the fairway every hole.. A ranger came by several times but never talked to us and appeared to never talk to them.

It rained the previous 2 days, and have had bad weather recently. Course is in surprisingly good shape. Though, the greens are a bit rough. Great course overall.

the greens were completely horrible to be honest. could hit a putt without it hopping 50 times left and right before it got the hole. had probably 10 birdie looks within 20 feet and made 1 of them cuz it cant hold the line at all. everything else was pretty solid though for the $. anything over $30 here is a waste of money forsure

The course has boasted of renovations. I asked when I checked in, and was told some of the greens had been redone. My assessment after playing here once last year is that two greens have been redone, while many are still diseased. Some fairways, too.

This course is pretty much only good for practicing, and only if the price is $25 or lower.

The course is beat up right now... a lot of the greens are in bad shape but I teed off at 6:40 in the morning for around 30 bucks with a cart which I thought was about right for the course. I wouldn't pay full price to play here though until the greens are back in shape.

The green complexes have to be the absolute worst in the chicagoland area if not the state of Illinois or even the entire midwest. I would guess that 14 or 15 of the greens were not playable. It was a horrible experience to hit the green and not be able to even find any type of path that actually had grass between the ball and hole. I asked the Director of Golf Operations about the course 's overall condition after the round and instead of an explanation or apology I was personally attacked and told I had no right to even ask about the conditions or get additional satisfaction. The Golf pro was completely rude in every way possible and could not even have a polite conversation or reach any compromise on a future date to play at a reduced rate. The customer service was the worst I've ever experienced in any type golf setting!!!!!!
