Great Course if you are scratch golfer
This was the first time I played here. The roughs were brutal. If your ball goes into the rough, you will not find your ball. We spend a lot of time trying to find our balls. This was not an enjoyable experience. I recommend this course for great golfers but weekend hackers will not have a great experience.
Great layout but poorly maintained
Many of my golfing buddies and I really like the course layout: long, challenging, especially on windy days, but fun to play.
However, for the price, the course is poorly maintained. The recent practice of leaving all grass clippings along the fairways and around the greens makes for a very unpleasant experience: the clippings tend to hide balls underneath, causing long searches and poor pace of play. But even worse, they get into shoes, socks, and stick all over your legs on weaty days, creating an exceptionally uncomfortable playing experience. The superintendent/green-keeper here probably never plays the course (or golf for that matter), otherwise they wouldn’t have adopted such an idiotic practice.
What happened???
Starboard course cart paths are in awful shape as well as some of the fairways. The green on 17 is full of goose droppings. 18 is also infested with geese. I can’t imagine what the Port course condition is in, if Starboard’s is what it was…
What happened?
Cart paths need to be repaved. The fairways were mowed and left messy with cut grass. The 17th hole green on Starboard was covered in goose poop. The 18th was overrun by Canadian geese.
Course is great but don't understand why they had cartoath only yesterday for all 18 holes. Made the course more difficult and tired all older golfers. They should give people the option of canceling.
Call golf course ahead of time to find out the playing conditions .
Great facility
Love coming here - great facilities, courses, and friendly staff.
Great Course, Frustrating pace of play and golf carts
The course is laid out beautifully, Cart paths have dangerous pot hole throughout. Golf carts have stop working and stranded me two out of the last three times I have played the course.
Nice staff, good amenities.
Overall the course is worth the cost.
Poor customer service. Carts with no power
2nd time in a month that we were stranded on the course with a golf carts that died between the 6th and 7th hole.
Goose waste is prevalent all throughout the 17th and 18th holes.
Course in Great Shape
Weather was great, course is in great shape, staff was tremendous. All good. Despite the lack of rain, the course is playing very well. The rough is pretty deep
In places but the course generally has generous fairways so a premium on hitting it on the short grass.
First timer
I saw some reviews complaining the quality was down and the prices were up so I figured I should get out there before either got worse. While pricey, I loved the course. Everything was in great shape and pace of play was great.
So much potential
I really want to love Harborside, but they make it tough to love them!
~1 handicap who plays here ~10x a year. It's a bit overpriced, but they know they are the easiest course to get to from downtown Chicago that's nice.
The rough is much longer than it needs to be, almost like they are trying to be really challenging, but it's tough enough as it is with the wind. I would not recommend anyone who is over a 15 handicap to come out and play because it's so challenging, and the tee options go from 6,600 to 5,800 or something like that which doesn't leave a good spot for average golfers..
The fairways and teeboxes on one 9 were not mown. (typically they are )
