Deerfield Golf Club

Everything is good but #1 tee area is pretty crowdy.
Careful golfcart arround..

Course was in good condition. Pace of play was slow. I was on twosome and threesome ahead of us played tips and should not have. Made things very slow. Otherwise was a nice day

Decided to play this course because of the price. Around $30 with a cart for 18. It was mid day on a weekday so it was pretty open and even though it had rained substantially the morning and night before the course was only a little bit wet with zero puddles and flooding issues. For the front 9 it was cart path only but the course superintendent came out to check the conditions and changed it to carts on Fairway. Most courses would have just kept it to cart path only the whole day so I appreciated the attentiveness to wanting to make the experience as god as possible. Will definitely come back again.

Where do they hire a group of inherently rude staff. They are a bad representation of Deerfield as a town. I have played here more than 5 times and every time had some kind of rude unprofessional encounter. Don’t stack your weekend golf on this place. They either gonna cancel your order, start you late, squeeze you for cart money for riding alone, or even close for the day but still allow online reservations and fail to give notice of course closure. Management at this place could use a refresh. Deerfield park district leadership take notice.

We had a foursome yesterday. We were behind 2 groups of women playing 9 holes - pace was awful.
After the women played 9 We were on 11 and the ranger said WE were slow!!!! We told of the 2groups that played 9 as bring very slow. He was adamant We were slow. We finished in 4 hrs 15 min despite the front 9 problems. Don't think we'll be back....saw ranger after and he never apologized.....says much

The course is generally well maintained and the practice area is just okay (stalls too close, not moved often enough, no fresh grass and trying to hit off mud isn’t fun). The greens are especially great for a muni course however. Staff is often unfriendly, ranger never around to speed up slow players and food at the halfway house is just disgusting. At $100 a round for a single player with own cart one would expect a better experience.

The course is nice but was quite frustrating to learn that all players must be at least 12 years old. Even with an adult. Why would you have such a great training facility and kids programs but not allow them to play? I could see if it’s a bunch of little kids with no adults but if the kids can keep up with pace if play and are with an adult let the kids play.

Nice course to play if you don’t want to drive too far from the city

Greens held shots well.. Putting speed was perfect.

I have played Deerfield twice in the last two years and have been treated very well by the staff. The lady in the pro shop and the starter were both very friendly and welcoming. The golf course is challenging, the front nine is significantly tighter than the back . The greens rolled nicely, the par threes have a nice variety, you hit different clubs into the greens.

18! Holes takes 6 hours when half the field is empty and you have 4-6 groups all bunched up together with no ranger to tell the old american peasants in front to play faster. Terrible also greens are almost as slow as old orchard

I’ve played here many times, and it was in by far the best condition I’ve ever seen it. The greens were beautiful. The biggest drawback to this course is the noise and the wall along 294, or else it might be one of my favorites in the area. The practice facility is first rate, and the head teaching pro, Derek, has really helped my game. The clubhouse is small and not worth hanging around.

Course is beautiful condition, great layout, staff very nice. Only issue ordered a turkey club at halfway house. Got 3 pieces of turkey on wheat bread. Nothing else on it.
Definitely give this course a try.
