Glencoe Glof Club is in great condition Fairways & greens are the best on the north Shore. Challenging layout for seniors. Bombers might find course a bit short for their games. Great value for seniors at 26$ , walking, Monday thru Thursday

Would travel: 0-10 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, Best course in the area

It's May so most courses are in good shape and so is this one. Gets slow as the season goes on. But it's a nice public course for the money. The staff at the clubhouse are not especially helpful. But they get busy so I suppose that's teh excuse. All in all, a good public course.

Would travel: 0-10 Miles
Bottom line: I would play again, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing

Old course with alot of big trees. Some tight fairways and smaller greens make for a good challenge. Pretty good conditions. Fair price for the course.

Glencoe is a beautiful, well maintained, fun and challenging golf course. The clubhouse and proshop are dated, and need total remodeling or replacement. The quality of the restaurant is the worst. I just enjoy playing golf there.

Would travel: 10-20 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Ranks with the best in this price level

A traditional well maintained north shore of Chicago course, with old tree's and narrow fairways. Greens usually in good shape. Nice place to spend an afternoon

Well tended older layout. Undulating small greens a good test. Old trees and botanic garden nextdoor provide a nice backdrop.
