South/East at Arrowhead Golf Club
About
Arrowhead Golf Club is home to a 27-hole course that is considered one of the best municipal plays in the Chicago area. The holes are divided into the South, East, and West nines, which can be played in three different 18-hole combinations. Water hazards appear on 17 of the 27 holes and there are 77 bunkers strategically placed throughout. Each golf course provides a challenging but different round. Although the club opened in 1927, the South/East Course was renovated in 2011. The course retained its challenging character but it was made more playable for a range of skill levels. In addition to the water and bunkers, there are mature trees throughout the course. Arrowhead G.C. also boasts a comprehensive practice facility that includes a lighted driving range, putting green, chipping green, and bunkers.

Arrowhead south west
Great course and staff. Highly recommend. Fast, but consistent greens
Beautiful course
Was able to get it on a hot deal, otherwise kind of expensive for a park district course. Course(s) were in great shape, well watered with the drought we’re in. Group in front of us had a walker they allowed us to play through and we were able to finish 18 in about 3 1/2 hours. Gear sand traps.
Arrowhead Golf Club W
Excellent course, well maintained, great layout, good hazards of water and bunkers placements. Enjoyable scenery with trees and forest preserve along the sides.
Had a great time! Very helpful staff. Will definitely visit again.
Good course but unfriendly staff
Pros:
1. Amazing course with great layout
2. Great course conditon
Cons:
1. unfriendly staffs
2. course maintenance staff interrupt the pace of the game. ("accidentally" push the ball across the course & constantly interrupt the play)
Great layout
Great layout. Fast greens. Excellent conditions. Great amenities with food and drink options.
Best public greens in the western suburbs
Played this golf course (South/West) this morning at 7:20 am after heavy rain overnight and the golf course was in excellent conditions everywhere. I expected the pro shop attendant to tell me cart paths only but they had no restrictions other than the 90° rule. Kudos to the golf superintendent and his staff for today’s golf course conditions. If you have not played this golf course, I strongly recommend it and be prepared to play the fastest public greens around!!!
Great layout variety with 3 - 9 hole courses. Their website can give you a decent overview of the entire golf course.
The East was tight and water came into play. We’re getting late into the season so divots are piling up. The greens are fast with some tricky breaks. The South was more open and a little less intimidating so the Driver came out more frequently than it did on the East.
The Brat was a nice size and the staff were all friendly.
I definitely want to play Arrowhead again.
