The best courses you can play in Glen Ellyn, Illinois

“Dubsdread is about as classic as Chicago public golf gets. A true championship test with a rich PGA Tour history, this Dick Wilson and Joe Lee design still lives up to its “hard but fair” reputation.”

“Great $50 walk. Fescue is overly penal. Impossible to find the ball even if it’s six inches in, despite the fescue being only a couple inches tall. I don’t need to be able to play it but I’d like to at least find it when i know exactly where it went”

“Enjoyable course, great practice facilities. Front 9 much more links than the back but still fun. Worth playing on a regular basis. Blows away many comparable priced public courses in the Chicagoland area”

“Very nice amenities and an amazing indoor/outdoor bar/range set up that should be more prevalent in the area. Course is fun with unique feature and well maintained. Large restaurant and event space, feel of a nice semi private club w muni availability.”

“The Preserve is one of the better public courses in the Chicago area — definitely a fun spot to tee it up. The practice area is great for warming up, with a nice range and short game setup that sets the tone for the round.”

“…the only real challenging hole on this nine is hole 6, which requires a long and precise drive to set up an approach to a long but narrow island green that typically plays into a crosswind, making for a challenging approach.”

“Beautiful course. Lots of wide fairways. The wind is the biggest factor here and can make holes play a lot longer. Very well kept course with nice greens. Good food at the clubhouse too.”

“Such a shame… Arcis golf ruining a Pete Dye design. Really a great layout, tests aspects of your game. But that’s where the good ends and is the only reason it gets the score it does. Course is a free for all, no management bunkers are quite honestly the worst I’ve seen.”
