Bartlett Hills Golf Club has been a favorite Chicagoland golf destination since it first opened in 1929. To keep the layout up to modern standards, it has undergone many changes over the years but it still has the same classic character. At 6,463 yards from the back tees, this traditional layout might not be long but it still provides a fair test. Rather than distance, the golf course demands smart play and accurate shot placement thanks to narrow, tree-lined fairways and several tricky doglegs. You might not have many chances to use your driver but you'll definitely get some iron practice. There isn't too much trouble off of the tees at Bartlett Hills G.C. But greenside you'll be faced with nearly 30 strategically placed bunkers and water hazards come into play on seven holes, which include some forced carries.

Greens were terrible, bald spots and very hard. Tee boxes were a mess, no repairs done, and it looked they haven't been moved in days.

Must Play

Have not played in a few years. Felt like I was putting at a country club. Greens had to be rolling 12+. Fairways well above average. Big driving range. Very well managed

The sand bunkers are terrible. Not enough sand. Some of them were like hitting off a cart path. Also, there were no ball washers out or benches.

Good layout, Excellent Condition

Fun and challenging course. Greens are fantastic and fairways are above average. Finished in under 4 hours
and there was no ranger just a starter. Staff, including maintenance crew were very friendly.. Bunkers are just okay but overall playability is great. Highly recommend this track.

Great course for all skills

Bartlett Hills is a great course tucked away in the suburbs. It has a great layout and holes that range from being on the easier side to requiring more complex shots. Great place for when your game is A+ to go low!

Greens are usually in excellent condition, although sometimes with heavy play the ballmarks aren't repaired by others.

Grounds crew keeps this place in such great shape, hats off to them.
