Nickol Knoll Golf Club
About
Ever since opening in the mid '90s, Arlington Heights Golf Club has been considered one of the best par-3 golf courses in Chicagoland. It is certainly one of the most unique with three holes that feature vertical-drop tee shots and two holes with uphill tee shots to the green. Although this nine-hole course is only 1,163 yards the large bentgrass tees and greens provide the feel of a full-length course. The layout has nearly 30 bunkers strategically placed throughout and water comes into play on two holes. From the elevated tees you can enjoy a panoramic view of the area, including stunning vistas of the Chicago skyline. Whether you're a beginner looking to get some practice or a scratch golfer who wants to get in a quick round, Arlington Heights Golf Club is a fun and challenging option.

A great little course
Got an hour to kill? IIf it is not busy this is the best way to spend it. Course is fun, lush, and , well, just fun to play.
Great Golf Course
I wanted to go out for a nice quick round of 9 holes. This is the perfect course.
Fun par 3
Alway a fun little course.
But the tee boxes were terrible. Little grass and patchy. Green conditions so so.
Should be reminders for pace of play. Foresome ahead was very slow and one player taking a lot of second shots on duffs.
Needs water and more
Could be a good short course but needs some work. Spray weeds and take better care of the greens/tees.
Help
Course was hit with a fungus or disease which has killed the Bermuda grass on the tee's and some parts of the greens. Some water would help as well as some lawn maintenance.
Satisfying course for practicing.
Excellent for training the short game. Good conditions in general except for some dry areas.
An hour well spent
Course is a bit dry, right now, with extremely fast greens. Otherwise, a very inexpensive and enjoyable hour to play.
Par 3.course
Badly needs water. Greens burnt out. Usually a very fun course to play but far too dry at the moment.
The greens are pretty fast.
Good course all par 3s fast good exercise walking uphill. Pretty easy course.
