Springbrook Golf Course sits next to Dragon Lake in Dupage County Forest Preserve, boasting some of the finest views of all the open space and trails Naperville has to offer. The course is a local favorite that is both challenging and playable. It's tougher and also considered more scenic that Naperville's other municipal course, Naperbrook. The rough can be a challenge to get out of and there are also strategically placed bunkers lurking along the undulating greens. It's a golf course that will test all aspects of your game but it's not overly difficult for high handicappers. Players of all skill levels can approach it with confidence. In addition to the golf course, Springbrook also has a practice facility that includes a natural turf range, two practice putting greens, and a short-game area with bunkers.

Beautiful layout

It's been 15 years but it is still a nice tough course. I jumped on as a single and the guys I played with were really slow. Two guys walked and I drove with the other guy. Who was on his phone all day. It took 5:15 minutes to play yikes.

Best Municipal Course Around.

Played this course on a beautiful Sunday afternoon and although we had to wait a little bit to tee off, about a 15 minute delay, it was wonderful! Everyone was super friendly and as far as municipal courses go Springbrook is the best around. It surpasses a lot of private courses including the much pricier Bolingbrook Golf Club. The course is challenging but not impossible and it really provides a great challenge for golfers of all ranges.

It has changed.

I've played this course probably 50+ times and it was always my fall back public course because it's decently long and a little challenging.

However, during the winter they cut down a lot of trees and really changed the way the course plays. I personally liked the challenge, and I thought it would speed up play, but it didn't. My tee time was 1:02 and didn't tee off until almost 1:25. And the round was right at 5 hours. Rough.

The new upgrades to the clubhouse and stuff are nice though.

Great Course in Naperville

If you're looking for a quality, well kept and challenging course, well look no further. Springbrook is a great course located in Naperville. It's challenging, but not too difficult. It's also long enough to make it worth the money. The greens and fareway are in great shape, and you can be in and out within 4 hours on a busy day. I recommend this course to anyone that is looking to be challenged and have a good time.

ranger wrecked it

Have played here many times. Course was in good shape. Never saw the drink cart despite it being fairly hot and sunny. Was expecting slow play since it was a Friday afternoon but we finished in 4:20 despite having a couple in our foursome that took their sweet time lining up putts and weren't playing ready golf.

My gripe is that the ranger, was pretty rude about asking us to pick up the pace and catch up to those in front. We were playing faster than the 4.5 hour guidelines despite having a full foursome playing by the strict golf etiquette rules. This really wrecked the round for me. I hate to feel rushed on the golf course and we weren't even playing slow according to their own posted guidelines. I have a sour taste now for Springbrook and will look elsewhere.

Chances to recover

The condition of the course was excellent. If you miss to the right as many golfers do, your second shot many times can still be in a spot to recover. This was very helpful in building my confidence in the game. I'm new to golf with only 6 rounds under my belt. I scored a 94 and for me that's a new low score. It doesn't mean there weren't any challenges, but some of my mistakes weren't thrown into a spotlight. It's a nice course and thanks to Golf Now I was able to find a great tee time after a long week of work.

Last time I'll play there

Starter argued with me that I didn't have a tee time even after I showed him my paid receipt. Once the clubhouse set him straight he didn't admit he was wrong or offer anything close to an apology. Normally I wouldn't mind but he was overall rude.
We were a two some following a threesome. We played as a 5some for a couple holes and then made us split up. The course was slow to begin with and that made it even worse. They didn't seem to do anything to speed up the slow groups ahead of us either. Took 3 hours to play the back.
Nice course but not worth the $50+ price tag. Many other courses in the area for better value
