Arlington Lakes Golf Club
About
Arlington Lakes Golf Club is situated amid the northwest suburbs of Chicago. Locals treasure the course as one of the area's hidden gems. At 5,331 yards from the back tees, this par-68 layout is on the shorter side but don't underestimate its level of difficulty. Besides the mature trees that frame many of the holes and 14 lakes that come into play, there are more than 100 strategically placed bunkers lurking throughout. The layout also features small, sloped greens that demand accuracy but you can take comfort in the fact that there are no doglegs. With strategic shot-placement and a bit of luck, there are some birdie opportunities available. The shorter length of the golf course will appeal to beginners but it's versatile for more advanced players to enjoy as well.

Good.
This is a good muni. Great for a practice round. Weather has been hot and dry, course plays firm. Price is ok but nothing special.

Expecting more for the price
Not a good value for what you get. Other places nearby where $65 for 18 nets you better quality and friendlier staff. No one was rude but lack of energy from staff makes a difference for that type of money and hype provided.
Thank you for taking the time to review our course. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. We will share your insights with the appropriate staff. We look forward to welcoming you back at Arlington Lakes Golf Club soon.
For the price, go elsewhere
I live right by the course, played it throughout high school for our golf team, and have been here pre and post renovation. Let me make one thing perfectly clear: take your 57 dollars elsewhere.
This is not a 50+ dollar course under any circumstances. Most youth golfers that are somewhat decent could shoot under par here with a 7 iron only. The greens are never consistent. The staff is extremely hit or miss; some are awesome and have great charisma and personalities, others are clearly miserable, rude, and couldn’t care any less about your experience. I am not playing here again until the price is reduced dramatically. I could go play Makray, arguably the area’s nicest and most challenging course, for 7 MORE DOLLARS.
I understand the economy, I understand that inflation is an issue, but this is not a 57 dollar course. No way. Leave this course to the 60 year old retirees that can afford it, otherwise use your money elsewhere.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Your feedback helps us do better. Thank you for visiting Arlington Lakes Golf Club. We hope you'll give us another try in the future.

Windy cold day made the course more difficult than normal. Fun course with problems if you stray off course

Short but Good course
Shorter course however still challenging enough to make it a good round. Very well kept fairways even this late in the season. You can shoot low.
Thanks so much for the great review. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing Arlington Lakes Golf Club.
Fun little course
The course is short but takes accuracy. We played 18 in just under 4 hours on a Sunday. Friendly staff.
Nice course
Enjoyed this course. Not hard, but you have to to pay attention. A good course for hitting your irons.. No cart for drinks on the course.

First visit
Nice track, i was not fooled by the shorter distance. My wife is a beginner and she felt the course was really friendly for someone at her skill level.
The course was in fine condition given it was first week in November. As expected, greens were being aerified so a little bumpy but still playable. Friendly staff, nice facilities, great price… overall great given the time of year. Will play there again,

Unfriendly staff
This was my first time at this course and I was disappointed right out of the gate. The tee time manager was extremely rude and not accommodating to our request. He was condescending to me and my 5 man team. He then proceed to braided us more and wanted to exert his “power” so he told us every rule we broke even before we started golfing, note: we were unaware of the rules we broke based on what the website told us, we apologized but it still wasn’t good enough so he kept going. Needless to say we will never go back again and I suggest this course to no one just based on the fact of how this one Individual treating us. What I will say is the gentleman maning the computers were extremely apologetic to us thus why we continued our 9 hole scramble. But again we will not go back until that gentlemen on the first tee is gone.

Fix that driver slice if you want to stay out of the Arlington Lakes. Majority of the holes had water on the right side of the fairway.

Good value quick pace

Again staff very friendly fairways and tee boxes very good greens lots of ball marks….we just moved our balls an inch or two (not the PGA) and it was fine. 3 for 100.00 on Hot Deal for Saturday afternoon while Old Orchard was charging 85.00 per player🤣🤣🤣 twisted teas 2 for $5 bucks Miller lite or BL 16 oz 2 for $8.00. We will be back! Oh yeah played in 2:45 yeah baby!
