Foss Park Golf Course
About
Foss Park Golf Course has a convenient location in North Chicago that is an easy drive in from the city. It's a public course that is known amongst locals for being one of the area's best golf values. The layout is wide-open save for three holes that are framed by towering mature trees. The golf course strikes a good balance between being challenging and playable. The fairways are narrow and demand accuracy but the massive greens are more forgiving. Each hole offers a variety of different playing options, which makes the course appealing to a wide range of skill levels. The golf course has plenty of sand, plus water hazards come into play on several holes. There is also a driving range and large practice putting green available at Foss Park G.C.

Lack of customer service
Didn’t play when I found that carts were not allowed. Tee off has no customer service. None. Had to play at another course. No help. No phone number. No nothing.

Nice course mean staff
I arrived 20 min prior to tee time but they would not let me check I . They said they were on a frost delay so they would wait to check Everyone in after the frost delay why?
One the frost delay was over I asked if we could start on the back because 15
People were waiting to tee off the front the man working as the starter was aggressive and said absolutely not.
So we Waited an 30 min to tee off.
The play was slow and remember to bring 5 dollars for the key deposit you get it back after you 4.5 hour round if you remember
Ok course just unprofessional rude staff

Turtle Central
Terrible outing. Tee boxes were so long you needed 4 inch tees. Course wasn’t in bad shape just tee boxes were too long or too fluffy. The REAL ISSUE IS PACE OF PLAY. UNLIKE ANYTHING I HAVE EVER SEEN. There was a Six-some on 1 green and literally 4 groups on another hole from tee to green. I took pics but I can’t upload here.
