Willow Run Golf Course

This course is a hidden gem. Played it and loved every minute of it. Fairways are pretty close together, trees may get in the way but you will enjoy your round of golf here. Nothing spectacular a good beginners course.

It has been a couple years since I have been able to come out here for a round but today my 12 year old son and I were FINALLY able to.
I called yesterday and spoke to Rich about coming in with him and explained that I’ve taken my lil guy to the range for a couple years and I’d like to take him out there. My thoughts were to have him just tee off at the 150 pin but Rich said why not just do a 2 man scramble. Why in the world I didn’t think of that I’ll never know but it was perfect.
We arrived to a very busy course and went into the clubhouse to check in and after a quick bite to eat we were on the first tee box. 2 hours and change later and I am glad to say my kid is hooked on golf for sure!!! He can’t wait until next weekend to have another go at it so one day he can play his own ball.. Thankfully he was able to save his old man on a few shots when I shot a terrible ball.
Thanks again!!!

Would definitely recommend this course, especially for beginners like me. I have only been golfing a couple years and this is where I started and where I always come back. The prices are great and the course is always clean and well maintained. My husband and I usually golf there on Sunday during the twilight rates with family and friends. Always a good time. The staff is very friendly. It’s a perfect place for smaller golf outings. We do a memorial golf outing every year in June and they are so easy to work with and very accommodating. There are a few smaller courses just as close to home and this is the one we prefer!

Friendly Staff, Mature Trees and a decently priced golf course. This certainly shouldn’t be considered in the same conversation ad some of the local big name courses however for what it is, it sure is a good value.

Terrible experience at this golf course. I purchased a great deal via Living Social & my husband & I were thrilled to golf. Though we never golfed before, we thought with the Living Social deal, it’ll be a great way to start. After arriving to this golf course we checked in with a very pleasurable lady (Rebecca) who gave us great pointers since this were to be our first time golfing. After going out to the course and meeting the starter Art, we were met with rude/​offensive instructions. For example, he repeatedly stressed his ability to «kick» us off the course if we did not follow his instructions. After this exchange, I explained I fully understood the rules & that he may continue with any further instructions. As soon as we began to attempt to play, Art continued to come by via his gold cart to «tell» us to move our golf cart & to step aside to let others play, we complied every time. As we began to «attempt» to play again. Art comes by on several occasions notifying us we need to step aside to let others play. We complied again. After this happening on several occasions more than 4. Art comes by one final time and said «we need to leave the golf course» Complexed as to why we were being told to leave I asked «Why, What just happened?» His response, «you’re just too slow, you need to leave now» There were only 2 other groups that were playing at the time we were there. We let the other groups play thru as we were beginner’s. Upset, disappointed doesn’t begin to describe my husband & I after this shocking exchange.
After returning to the office to share what happened with the originally lady we came in contact with (Rebecca) she says, «she was not to let beginner’s play on the golf course», though the Living Social deal doesn’t state anywhere, that beginners aren’t welcome. Art also knew we were beginners hence, his very offensive instructions to us. Rebecca even went out prior to us making it out on the course to explain to Art that we were headed onto the course & that were first time golfers.
This review is for consumers (Golf Beginner’s in particular) to understand that we are not welcomed at Willow Run Golf Course).

This is one of the best 9 hole courses in the Chicago area. The course is mature and tree lined. It offers a good time for all levels of golfers. NIce course to walk or if you need the much appreciated beer holder get a cart. Course is made up of 2 par 3’s 6 par 4’s and the finishing hole par 5 water on 2 holes. Good place for anyone to brush up there skills or learn and have a good time. Prices are good. Walking early bird rate b4 9am 15.75 with cart 23.25. Twilight rate after 5pm is only 12.25
