Eaglewood Resort & Spa
About
Located just northwest of Chicago, the Eaglewood Resort & Spa opened for play in 1932. It is a classic championship golf course, built during a time when the long drive was unheard of. The 6,017-yard layout seems short by today's standards, but the course still offers a formidable challenge. It features rolling fairways lined with century-old oak trees and wildly undulating, difficult-to-read greens with varying speeds that fluctuate depending on the weather, season, and even time of day. There are generous landing areas but they are bordered by deep, strategically placed bunkers that are just waiting to swallow even slightly errant shots. The carefully sculpted and plentiful bunkers are a prominent feature of the layout. Eaglewood's scenic landscape also has three lakes that come into play on eight holes.

Course in Good Shape
Eaglewood was in pretty good shape for early in the season. The bunkers needed some raking but fairways and greens were in good shape. Remarkably, the greens were very slow, which is not usual for this course. In mid-summer, the greens are incredibly fast. The course has no signature hole and only has a couple of holes where water comes into play. The bunkers, however, are deep and can be challenging to get our of. If you can get a deal for $35 or less than it's worth playing. If it's over $40, I suggest looking at alternatives.
Good beginner coarse. Coarse is short, fairways are forgiving. Greens were super slow today. Great coarse to begin the season.
Outrageously slow due to 5-somes
Despite notifying the pro shop (they promised to send someone but never saw anyone and nothing changed), we witnesses at least two groups of 5 on the course and the one in front of us was extremely slow besides and habitually parked their cart in FRONT of the green and also ignored the 90 degree rule in effect. They were at least 2 holes behind and at one point there were 3 groups waiting at one hole. Fairways were not closely mowed and had considerable bad spots. Greens were inconsistent speeds.
No drinking water on course. Ball/club washer on cart had no water in it.
We apologize for the issues you experienced during your visit to our golf course. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration to improve our services and facilities. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Beautiful
This was a fun and exciting place to play. Never lost a ball ! I’m from Tucson ,Az and we don’t have courses like this back home. The Ruff was thick and hard to hit out of but the fairways and greens were immaculate.
Always a good round
I've played this course about 10 times over a few years and every time it's in great shape. The staff is friendly and helpful. The pace of play can get bogged down on nice days, but overall it's fine. I'll be back.
Beautiful Day
Perfect weather, course was in nice shape, not crowded. Much hillier than expected. Makes this course different from many others.
Eaglewood Resort GC
Course is in great shape and we enjoyed our round. Will be back soon. Thank you.
Great Course
It in a resort. length wise bit short, but if you
play from back, its OK.
Some Greens are very difficult
Course conditon is very good!
Great Couse
It is the resort. Course condtion is pretty good
We played from back tee which is reasonably
challenging even distance is short comparing
other courses. Its very nice course
Putting is bit difficult espcially downhill.
Pace of play was a little slow. Not sure what can be done to fix it because the holes are very close to each other. Wasn’t a bad place to play but is a little too expensive for what it is.
