Tamarack Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Tamarack Golf Club is a course that will test your shot-making skills yet it is still player-friendly enough to appeal to all skill levels. Pete Dye designed the course with tight, sculpted fairways and undulating greens that come in a range of sizes. The layout offers plenty of challenges with water or sand coming into play on every hole. The golf course will test your accuracy but it is not as difficult as many other Dye designs. The third is one of the toughest holes. A severely undulating green protected by deep bunkers makes placement vitally important on this par 3. The 15th is one of the back nine's more challenging holes. It presents an interesting risk-reward opportunity with a myriad of teeing options. Water lines the entire right side and the two-tiered green is flanked with bunkers to the front and right.

Course in terrible condition
Fairway bunkers were all washed out; basically rock or mud. Some of greenside bunkers the same, but some ok. Greens were in terrible shape; some aerated with huge holes with no dressing, and some with far too much sand. The greens not aerated were inconsistent as well; some burned out and some ok. Overall trying to determine pace for a putt was impossible due to insistent condition. Many trees were down and in various stsges of cleanup. Tee boxes come nowhere near the yardages on card; one set even nonexistent. Total crap.

Rising like a phoenix
I used to play Tamarack a couple times a year (quite far from my home), but ceased when something caused the grass to die, leaving little more than a dirt track (same thing happened to La Grange CC). As such, I was impressed by conditions. Nice recovery! It is clearly early in the season and I assume more will be done, but we had a good time despite the high velocity winds.

Water hazard on every hole.. on and off the fairways as well as in the bunkers
A course with a moderate challenge, but it is made worse with poor drainage and total lack of maintenance. But it is one course open close to where I live. So I play there ... just to get out of the house, If you do not care about the the course conditions, it is OK to go here

Once a decent flat terrain layout - now going bad
A flat course with water hazard on every hole. Maintenance is just bare enough to recognize this as a golf course. The major issue is sand bunkers. Most of them are mud pits. Previous suggestions for improvement had no effect.

Fairways and greens in good shape. Bunkers are not for the most part. Thin cover, rocks, and more rocks.

Great value
For the average golfer which most of us are this is great value for money! Tee boxes can be a little rough but definitely nothing to worry about and some bunkers are lacking sand depth but fairways and greens are great ! For anyone who is realistic about there true level of golf this works great!

Really nice course
I really like this course, the greens. Fairways and Teebox are well watered. Downside, Many of the sand traps are like rock quarries. Staff is really nice, carts work well and the course is clean.

Rough
Greens were rough. Sand traps need lots of work. Most under repair could not play from traps.
89 degree day and no water on course. Water cooler went empty for over 4 hours. Drink cart had no water to sell. No ice on cart to even keep soda cold. Told they were out of ice at 4:00? Gas station sells bags of ice. Just a suggestion. Crazy day. Easy to fix with good management. Will try again to see if things change to recommend to a friend.

Decent for the money
This place is just ok. The layout is somewhat interesting (not just straight boring holes) without being memorable either.
Conditions were ok. The greens were well groomed and good quality but the patrons don't repair ball marks so they look like the surface of the moon. It's unfortunate.
The fairways were green, lush and great but the rough was a bit rough. Bunkers were rock hard with 1/4" of sand and pebbles. So conditions were a mixed bag overall.
Still, it was not expensive and fairly fun to play. It's the kind of course I won't be trying to play again but am also not avoiding it in the future. In an area with less options (literally hundreds in the Chicago area) this could be great but as-is it is adjacent to much better options.
Point being, for the 36 or so dollars I paid to have a 18h twilight round with a cart, I got zero complaints, but take away a good deal and I'm not that intrigued.

Poor greens, and tee box. Bunkers were a gravel pit.

Save your money
You would think a course charging $35 for a hot deal would be some what decent… nope.
This course is not with your time, save your money.
Sand traps have literal 10 pound rocks in them. Tee boxes are all destroyed and greens are like a gravel road.
