Aerated and expensive

Greens and fairways both aerated and sanded. Greens were in awful shape!… And they still charged full price. Don’t waste your time/money.

Greens Not in Good Shape

Pace is play was good for a weekend and the fairways and tee boxes are in good shape. The problem was the greens. A lot of marks and gouges. Not sure what happened as the greens are usually in good shape.

Poorly Managed

Course was very slow. Grass on the tee boxes was pretty long. Greens varied significantly in speed. Course isn’t in especially good condition and wouldn’t be particularly challenging if it were. Still better than other nearby public courses, but it’s far from a golf destination.

Bad Fairways

Wilmette golf course has been invaded by Tall Fescue. There are thousands of clumps in every fairway. Additionally, fairways are very shaggy!
