Solid layout

Has 4 tee boxes, length is fair as long as you play to your handicap. Course has seemed to hold water which kept us on the cart path, but no big deal. Some of the cart patchs are in rough shape and need repair. Course is in good condition both greens and through the green.

Great Day

Course is in fine condition. Unfortunately I got stuck behind a tournment and had to quit after 16 holes because there were just too many of them in front of me. I am from St. Louis, and this course is in great shape. I love the bent fairways and greens, and the tee boxes are in excellent shape for this time of year.

Hi slfcoff2,

Thanks for taking the time to write a review about Schaumburg Golf Club. We are very happy you found the course in great shape. We are unfortunately sorry you got stuck behind a tournament and didn't get your full 18 in. We hope to see you back again.

Regards,

SGC Staff

Course in Great Shape

Course is in great shape. Greens are true, soft enough to hold the ball. Fairways in great shape. Some Tee boxes are showing wear and tear, but that can be expected. Most of them are in great shape.
The one negative is someone smokes in the club house. This is the second time this year I've been there and it was the same. So naturally I am not staying in their to eat anything.

Overpriced

Let's see: I used to play here 30 years ago, they lost when they lost their greens, the course was in bad shape, but they still kept charging premium greens fees. So I thought after 30 years it was time to give them another try. I can't say I loved the course, but the course is not bad. They do charge too much money, my cost from golf now was $32 and that was a hot rate. So I would rate this course at about $21 rate. I played on a Thursday 10am and the course was wide open, was happy it only took 3.5 hours to play. AS some other comments have suggested the GPS is still mapped to the old course layout so hard to tell distances. The greens are good, fast, and it is a shame that people don't repair ball marks cuz you see it is going to get bad as soon as the hot weather hits. I am so glad they kept the old number 1 ( I think its number 11 now) nice feature hitting from way up high.

So my only real complaint is the price for what you get. Lower the price to $24 and I will be back.

Trouble in Paradise

First off, this is a very good golf course. We just happen to pick the day of a Junior Golf Tournament and a frost delay of 1.5 hours. We paid greens fees at the golf course, not golf now. Kudos for calling us and letting us know we would be 1 hour delayed. However when we saw what was happening which was the junior golfers were very very very slow and backed up, we asked if we could get a rain check. Answer: NO, so they put us off the 10th tee behind a foursome who were behind the juniors. Played hole 10 in 10 minutes, than waited on 11 for 30 minutes. The foursome in front quit, and the 2some playing with us quit. We played hole 11, went to 12 and the juniors were backed up beyond belief. The course marshall saved the day. He gave us a rain check on the spot. The only problem I see is in the clubhouse they could have avoided all the bad feelings with so many golfers and give rain checks. I would have been happy, and leaving with a good feeling that the course really cares about its golfers. There are so many golf courses around that are as fun to play as Bear Creek I would have chosen to ban the course after this incident; however as I stated the Course Marshall saved the day and I will be back. In fact I played their last week and had a great experience, once we played through the sixsome in front of us.

Course is in great condition

Greens were aerated not long ago, so there are some holes on greens, but not too bad. Overall this course is a nice course. Well maintained. Tee boxes in good shape, especially this time of year. The falls were not flowing and I do like that, but acceptable this time of year. The course is challenging but fair.

This course is kinda Quirky, but playable

For this time of year, the course is in pretty good shape. Greens were recently aerated, so a little bumpy, but not enough to downgrade them. The course is a little quirky, which means to me it kinda criss crosses around the countryside. Hole 4 is a par 3, you drive up to green, but after finished you have to drive back to tee to go to next hole. Some of the holes are very narrow driving. Some holes are quite short, so I would call this a shotmakers course.

The course is usually in good shape.

This course is always in good shape. The greens are really nice, fairways are great. Sometimes the tee boxes take a beating. The course is fair, especially true with what tee boxes you play from. With golf now pricing, and also senior pricing this is a true value golf course. Yes it is quite a ways from the St. Louis area, but the value is there.

Great Setting

Innsbrook is a fantastic course. Although I can't seem to avoid penalty strokes, it is very challenging. Play from white tees, use 3 wood off the tee a lot just to keep the ball in play. The course is zoysia and fairways in perfect condition. Greens get a little beat up, but they are big and usually in great condition. Most tee boxes are great, some need a little attention at the end of summer. In the fall when the leaves start to turn it is a fantastic setting, you might even see some deer and baby doe hanging around. If you get the golf now hot deal this is one of the great value courses. Although it is a fair drive out there, it is worth it. You know how some courses have a lot of bare spots? Well this course is fun to play the ball as it lies, no improvement whatsoever, which should tell you the kind of shape the course is usually in.
