For sure one has to come when the weather is good. The course is pretty well maintained but can be a little boring to be honest. Among the more affordable golf courses around here and among the few that are public and not a part of a country club. It's a full 18 hole course with maintained greens. There's a good variety in the yardage. Among the amenities are carts. Of course any respectable course should have these. Also there's a clubhouse with a bar and grill. There's a menu of golf themed cocktails along with basic greasy stuff like burgers and wings. If wanting to get lessons, there's a PGA approved instructor. There's also tournaments for juniors. Fairly good place to play golf. It's located on Hill Avenue at Montgomery. The course gets crowded at times especially on weekends.

We had our wedding reception in April at the Aurora Country Club, and couldn't have asked for a…read morebetter experience. Peggy Hess worked with us to make everything we asked for become a reality. She was extremely knowledgeable and detail oriented, but also kind and flexible, giving advice and direction when needed, and deferring to our vision for everything else. From the very first meeting, we were made to feel at home from everyone at ACC. From the start, Peggy stressed that her goal was to make our dream a reality. To that end, at no point were we given a list of standard "packages", instead always being asked open ended questions about what we wanted. This could be seen in the dinner selection, where instead of a pre-selected list of dishes, we were asked by the chef what kind of flavor profiles we were looking for, and then given a large variety of options that fit our preferences. In the end, the dinner we chose was phenomenal. The club itself is absolutely beautiful. The drive up is on a charming tree lined road, and guests are greeted with a welcomingly large and warm foyer as they walk in, complete with a large fireplace. Our cocktail hour was in a separate room from the main dinner, yet there was plenty of space available to mingle and move around before dinner began. Behind the scenes, the men's and women's locker rooms provided great privacy and security for the wedding party to change and freshen up. The main dining room is lined with windows giving a beautiful vista of the golf course and landscape outside. The wait staff was extremely attentive and prompt, following our schedule perfectly. This attentiveness didn't end after dinner was finished; as the night was coming to a close, Peggy noticed the guest count was still pretty high (a testament to our DJ, but that's a different review). Because of this, without prompting, she had the kitchen prepare more late night snack bags so that no one would go home empty handed. We are beyond happy with our experience at the Aurora Country Club, and wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a customized selection of food and appetizers, an accommodating staff, and an elegant space. You will not be disappointed.

For a par 60 course I was surprised how quiet it was here. No tee times and no starter but that…read moredidn't really matter. The course was well kept and fairways were soft and distinguishable. The course is compact - miss a fairway and you're likely on someone else's tee box. Honestly, didn't matter to me either. Here's the shocker - for a par three (majority) course, the greens were the best kept so far this year. I've played Fox Bend, Bliss Creek and Phillips Park this season and and not one had greens that were actually playable. No dead spots, greens were soft, actually green and lacked ball marks. Shocker, right?! Give this place a shot if you're looking for a relaxing round and NOT looking to be rushed by pompous $&&holes - I'm looking at you Oswego residents (Fox Bend).

I was super excited to play here. I live 10 mins away i wanted this to be my home course. Needless…read moreto say I will never be back here. I came on Friday June 12, with myself and 2 others. I own a business and lucky to be open during Covid, my 2 buddies both work in the health care industry. So we finally were able to go out and play some golf. The round started off great. It's a laid backed course no tee times just show up and tee off. It's a learners course if you will. It was my first ever time playing here and during Covid. I'm a lil rusty on the golf rules. It was the 12th hole, we just teed off all three of us got in our carts to follow after our balls. I'm the last one to drive off. As I get to the fairway I hear someone yelling and waving their arms at me. So I assumed one of us let a club at the previous hole. Man, was I wrong. A gentleman in a blues shirt claiming to work there drove up to me yelling saying " hey!!!! U aren't suppose to drive through the "tee box"!!! Mind you he is yelling this and stating he works here. Nothing showing that he works there. No shirt nothing. He had a whole bag of golf clubs in the back of his cart. Normally the person working the course will drive around with no clubs on the back of their cart. Not this guy. I again try to figure out what I did wrong as he is talking down to me as if I'm stupid. He point to the tee box and says. " this is a tee box" u can't drive through this. I said so u mean the white markers for distance I ran over one of those. He's then again talks to me like a child and points to the "tee box" do u not know what a "tee box" is. So I apologized and said it would never happen again it was my fault I'm sorry. I don't know why he was so angry and upset. As I drive away to get my ball I can see 3 teenage kids 2 in the front seat and 1 being pulled around from the cart as if he was skiing. I'm on the 13th fairway the gentleman again in the blue shirt came to up to me stating "I wasn't trying to be an a**hole" I felt very disrespected for being yelled at like a child for an honest mistake. So I tell him "yeah, well you were" and drove off. As I get next to my buddy he (blue shirt) pulls up again trying to apologize cuz he felt guilty. As I return my cart I ask the gentleman at the window if there was a worker Out on the course. Before I can't explain anything, he mentions "tee box" and how I was wrong for driving through it. Again I never said I wasn't wrong. I just didn't appreciate being yelled at be someone who claims to be working there. I tell this to Jeff the gentleman at the window. Jeff even started to get rude with me. Not professional in any way what so ever. He even went as far to say we, me and my buddies are rude and wrong for being a threesum group and having a single behind us we should have let him play through. The single he is talking about is (blue shirt) so.... is he golfing or is he working? Not once did blue shirt ask to play through. We didnt even know anyone was behind us it's a tight course. Jeff didn't want to hear anything I had to say about the situation. He was just rude, very short and down right disrespectful. I'm a paying customer trying to get to the bottom of why a random person playing golf is yelling at me for driving through the "tee box" then to find out he really does work there. Who works there yet is upset we didn't let him play through? The worse first experience I have even been involved with. They obviously don't care about there paying customers. They just want your money, play and leave. Don't waste your time or your money here. For 40$ for 18 and a cart u can find plenty of other courses at that price with way friendly employees.

Though the details of the shower had been thoroughly discussed prior to the event, on that day I found myself constantly have to ask to have items taken care of that we'd previously agreed to.

They never offered soft drinks to our guests. This made the event much more stressful to me and the other hosts (although the guests had an excellent time and enjoyed the shower thoroughly). I sent a letter detailing my concerns immediately after the event, but never even received the courtesy of a response.

After our first meeting, we knew we wanted to move ahead with booking. They are very organized and gave us a folder to walk through all components of the booking process. The wedding food tasting went well and on our wedding day, it tasted just like I remembered! Their food choices are extensive. They offer both plated meals as well as family style. We chose family style so we could try multiple options. Jessica was our wedding coordinator, and she was great. She was very responsive to emails. (That was the easiest way to communicate with her). Our day of coordinator was Jessenia, and she was great too. She ensured the room was set up to our liking and kept us organized. I also want to recognize the day of banquet staff, Serrano, Danielle, and Jon, for being amazing too. (There were a couple of more, but I didn't get their names) Cantigny was a blast to work with, and everything I requested for our special day was honored.

There are 3 9-hole courses, each with it's own quirks and challenges. I'd argue Lakeside is the hardest, but Woodside has some insanely difficult holes too. Regardless of your skill level, you will enjoy this place. It manages to honor the game but not be the slightest bit stuffy or snotty. Everyone that works here is hospitable and they have fun. Nice selection of drinks from the cart gals. Bartenders and servers are great, and the food is pretty good. Golf staff are great. My son (now 20) took lessons at the Academy as a kid and the lessons were worth every penny. If you are on the fence about this place because of the cost (it's not cheap)- it's worth it. If you're strapped for cash they have a pretty good twilight deal too. Definitely a bucket list course for anyone in Chicago.

So screw you Mr. Ranger. Get a life. Oh and btw when we walked off the 15th hole, there was nobody on the box AND when we finished the last hole, a long par 5 there was nobody on the hole anywhere behind us...so maybe you should have directed your attitude towards the guys behind us.
