Village Greens of Woodridge

The fairways were infested last year and this year they have not recovered. Fairways were like the length of normal rough. Sand traps had no sand in them and they will filled with water and the course made no effort to drain them. The greens were not in much better shape than the fairways. Avoid this course. It’s a shame because the layout is nice but the conditions are almost unplayable.

Course was in terrible shape. Fairways and greens browned out. Pace of play was fine but ranger was a jerk. He told us to pick up our pace on the 13th hole because we were a hole behind the group in front of us even though we were 15 minutes ahead of pace and 1.5 holes in front of the group behind us. When I pointed this out to him, he didn’t care and insisted we hurry up. Stay away. Not worth it at any price.

Can’t tell the difference between the fairway and the rough here. For $40 a round they should be able to buy lawnmowers with adjustable blades. Also the starters are very disrespectful. Made us skip several holes so the “better players” wouldn’t have to wait. Sorry I didn’t know this was Augusta national.

Good municipal course and excellent value, you can afford to play 2 to 3 rounds a week and you wont break the bank.
Course is in average condition, mostly due to obvious effects of very wet spring. Greens in good shape. Ruff could use mowing to promote ability to locate ball more easily and keep pace of play.

This course can be fun and the back nine is scenic but right now it is in terrible condition. It’s probably due to the amount of rain we’ve had recently. The lack of a ranger was problematic because we had three youngsters (walkers) in front of us who did not understand golf etiquette and they had a fivesome in front of them. Needless to say I will not be returning soon .

I wish they would knock down that cafeteria, and build a real bar area. I end up going next door to grab a beer after l play.
This would pay for itself in time.

A net on both sides of the parking lot would also, be good. ...my car was hit by golf balls twice.

The cautions in the course description are rather unsettling, but the course is ~90% recovered and is very playable. Only a few areas of a few.fairways are affected.

Outstanding value on a hot deal rate, but not such a value at the non-discounted $40 rate that was posted on our day of play.

The course is straightforward, the fairways wide, greens large and simple so a mid to high handicapper can thoroughly enjoy the course.
It won't challenge a single digit handicapper, but it's a great property for the average golfer.

Gave this course another shot after a few years away and I should have just played the mini golf next door. The Golf Now rate of $25 was what sparked my interest to try this course again, and even that is too much for the shape this course is in. Anyone who pays full price to play here is crazy when there are so many decent courses in the area. Worst tee boxes and fairways in the area by far and I do not think they have raked the sand traps all year. I understand they dealt with a fungus a few years ago, but they have had plenty of time to turn things around. It’s only a matter of time before this course is turned into a subdivision.

This course is not in good condition. It appears the wet Chicagoland weather has really hurt this course. Every fairway and all roughs need immediate mowing!

Course was horrible playing conditions. We booked online and expected the course to be at least in average Chicago Park District conditions. This was not the case as the course was in disarray from the rough to the fairway. I would not recommend this course unless it was free of charge. Totally unacceptable to hit a great drive down the center of the fairway and still unable to locate your ball due to brown debri and cut grass shavings everywhere. I definitely was not satisfied with my experience.

Course in horrible condition. Tee boxes like hitting from rough. Fairways torn up.

Beautiful day, decent course, great value. Course was in great condition given all the rain lately. Bunkers were the only drawback as some were barely playable, but overall it was a solid play.

I’ve played this course numerous times and always enjoyed it. Today was a different story. It looked like their greenskeeper quit. The grass has not been cut all year. The fairways looked like rough, and the rough looked like a tall-grass hazard. No rangers out to keep pace of play and many walkers out. Overall a terrible experience. I would normally recommend this course to anyone but not after today. I will not be back.

Fairways are full of holes and the grass is missing in many spots. Drainage is terrible. The greens were covered in debris so putting was impossible

The course was extremely wet due to heavy rains in the past week. The fairways are also being reseeded so there were many bare spots as we were warned. As soon as the new grass grows in and the course dries up this will be a great play.

The course was in very poor condition, might still have the fungus from previous years. Needs a lot of work on the fairways and the tee boxes. The pace of play was slow for an 11 am tee time. Sand traps were in (understandably) poor conditions due to all of the rain. Hope they turn things around because it is a nice course. I would not recommend playing there at this time.
