Standard public 9 hole course
Well kept greens and fairways with pretty bad sand traps and a fair amount of on course land that looks like a construction area. All skill and etiquette levels in attendance. We ended up behind a group of 6 with a 2-year old, allowed to all go off together because only 3 of them were playing. They ended up having 6 play while sharing 3 sets of clubs, taking photos of their baby on the green for several minutes after they were done with the hole and really just ignoring the fact that other people were on the golf course. Always a gamble when you play here. Win some and lose some. In general though, the staff is nice, the course is approachable and tee times aren't too hard to come by.
We apologize for the pace of play issue you experienced. We always try to keep a great pace when having our golfers on the course. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!

Solid course
Went this past weekend with a buddy of mine. Early in the season but the course was really wet. Outside of that really nice. Not overly hard or long but the wind definitely makes it more challenging.

Exhilarating Spring Golf
Albeit some early season conditions, a picturesque, well-designed and fun course for golfers of all levels.

Soggy and Windy
Willow Hill is a former garbage dump that sits way up high (you can see downtown Chicago) and has no trees or other shelter from the wind. A steady 25 mph wind made the course more challenging than usual. The current owners have made a lot of improvements to the course the last two years, but it has a lot of drainage problems. The fairways were soggy in many spots and there were puddles in some spots, It's March, and there was a lot of rain and snow recently, so conditions should improve as it gets warmer and drier.
Hi Krystal! Apologies for the drainage issues on the course! As we head into the Summer season - this should improve! We hope to see you back soon!
9 hole perfection
Greens are in great shape. Play the blue tees to get the full experience, they are fare in terms of hole length. I have also never seen the city skyline like that before. Bring some out of town friends for a quick 9.

Fun course, better than expected!
Played this course for the first tine Sunday morning with clouds early and a touch of rain when we played the thrlird hole. Temps in low 60s. It is about 30 mins from my home in the city. Very unique setting above a former trash dump. Once atop the mountain you feel like you're on another planet. Condition was very good with supple fairways and challenging greens in excellent. Great treetop views of surrounding Northbrook. Nice little clubhouse with drinks.
I booked late Friday for Sunday morning... there were many spots open depite a good weather forecast so I was suspect. However, it is a fun course in good shape. We'd play again for sure when heading up north from my home.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing Willow Hill Golf Course.
