In town for work and got a 5pm tee time. Was able to go out as a single, played 18 in 2:10 mins. For the end of season the greens showed signs of heavy play but still rolled good with good speed. Everything was in good shape for the most part. Really fun layout, would come back.

Had an epic time out there with the Golf With JMO podcast! The course is beautiful and the clubhouse was immaculate. One of the nicest courses I have ever had the pleasure of playing! Great people on the staff at every level. Got treated like a king and can’t wait to go back!

When we booked a 9:20am tee time for $80 a person I certainly didn't expect to be waiting behind a fivesome all day. Interesting to see the other reviews say there's marshals enforcing pace of play then they let this nonsense happen on a day with a full tee sheet. Really had higher expectations from a premium public course, I didn't know the standards were so low here.

The course is in great condition, has a challenging layout, and great service... Mostly. Aside from the one old man who I was unsure was an employee or not that was being extremely rude and belligerent in the halfway house. When you get yelled at and cussed at for not shutting the halfway house door immediately when your hands are full it kind of sours the experience a little.

Challenging beautiful course. Well maintained, good food and seating area at the turn. Full bathrooms half way on front and back. Well worth it.

Bowes Creek is a great facility. Full driving range and chip/putt greens. The course layout is great challenging. Great staff that is friendly and will take care of ya. The only issue I have about this place is the course maintenance. They charge almost $100 for prime weekend. Then you get to the tee boxes or greens and they’re not in the greatest shape divots/weeds all around or even missing/dead grass. I compare a lot of courses to my home course of Schaumburg and they’re priced the same and Schaumburg is in way better shape or taken care better.

Poor experience. Weeds around sand traps, garbage weeds throughout the course. Divot holes everywhere even on the greens? Poorly maintain. I think they are looking for a links environment with prairie grass, but misses as it's landscaped with weeds instead. Thank you.

Hands down my favorite course in the western burbs. Greens are consistent. Fairways and bunkers are perfectly maintained. Layout is fun and different on every hole.

The golf course is spectacular and challenging. Course is kept in great condition, especially the greens. Secluded private feeling makes the experience special. Our group ended up replaying it that day because we were so impressed.

Great course in great condition. Above average price. Just found out they charge a booking fee per player which is a joke and if you prepay and cancel in time there's no refund they give you a credit towards another round. I have never heard of another golf course doing both of these. Therefore I'm staying away plenty of other good golf courses around
