In summary

South Shore Golf Club is appreciated for its well-maintained greens and fairways, offering a scenic 9-hole course with views of Lake Michigan and the city skyline. The course's layout is noted for its tight fairways, providing a fun challenge for golfers. While the club's amenities, such as the cultural center and event spaces, receive positive remarks, some visitors have experienced delays with tee times and golf cart availability, leading to slower pace of play.

Played May 23, 2025. Nice little course with tight fairways and small greens. It's short length wise but you better hit it straight. Greens and fairways were solid. Walked 9 holes in less than 2 hours. Good place to get a quick round in if you're visiting.

Nice option for a quick 9 holes if you want to stay within city limits. Given the price point, this is a solid value. Greens and fairways are well maintained. Some solid and pace of play was quick, took us just over 2 hours to walk. Three holes are narrow and require accurate tee shots to avoid apartments, cars and people outside the course. A few bunkers are loaded with pebbles which is no bueno.

The architecture on the cultural center is spectacular to welcome you into the drive. Barely a pro shop if that matters to you. Short course is tight in spots, amazing amazing scenery. Good pace of play, and a fun nine.

Nice course overall and very pretty with the skyline. However, the starter was not managing tee times. We tee’d off over 30 min late and the pace of play was extremely slow. We were waiting on every hole. We will not be coming back here.

Unfortunately we waited over an hour for two golf carts for our foursome. Had a 10am tee time, and didn’t tee off until after 11am. Never experienced this ever. The fairways were extra long, unless this is on purpose, it wasn’t the best. It appears they pay zero intention to tee times. No golf starter. The location is nice along the lake front.

It's a good course with some good view. If you need to shake the dust on a 9 hole course or just get a bit of a challenge, come here.

First time out, amazing 9 hole course with some fantastic views of Lake Michigan and the skyline. Pace was great, and the greens were in good shape. Absolutely returning.

Nice 9 hole course, but location & club are the real stars. Regional Special Olympics golf event held there.

I booked a tee time here for my husband’s birthday and I thought it would be fun to ride along with him and have a few drinks while he played. Turns out it was not a very good course for that. When we checked in there were no carts available so we had to walk. They also only had 2 drink options - beer or seltzer. Aside from that, the course was beautiful and it was a good price. Got my steps in and still had fun

Excellent Service. One minor flaw due to the above average rainfall in Chicago. There is a hazard on the fairway of Hole number one!
