The conditions were superb tee to green. Greens rolled true with significant undulations on most. The bunkers were well manicured as were the bent grass fairways. The 100 year old oak trees provided shade as well as helped shape the contours of some of the holes. Overall, a hidden gem, and a course I plan to play again soon.

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.

First, the positives: the course itself is in great shape. Fairways and greens were…read morewell-maintained, the layout is challenging without being unfair, and there are some genuinely beautiful holes. For pure golf, Cantigny can deliver. The problem is everything that happened between shots. We booked three Friday morning tee times with varying numbers of players in each group. At bag drop, the host seemed less than thrilled by the arrangement and appeared confused about where bags should go. Maybe coordinating three separate tee times was complicated. No big deal--it was a brief interaction, and we moved on. Check-in was smooth enough. At $128 per person with a cart, though, expectations are naturally a little higher than your average muni. Then we arrived at Hole 1. Since golfers can be routed to either Hillside or Lakeside, there was a ranger directing traffic. Unfortunately, he seemed completely overwhelmed by the existence of golfers showing up for their scheduled tee times. Two other groups parked in front of him, and what followed looked less like tee-time management and more like air traffic control during a thunderstorm. We arrived 30 minutes before our tee time and were ready to go, yet nobody seemed sure where to send us. Eventually, we were directed to a tee box and instructed to wait 10 minutes after the group ahead of us teed off. Fair enough. Then, moments later, we got yelled at for not teeing off soon enough. So apparently we were simultaneously too early and too late. Quite an achievement. The group ahead of us was painfully slow. Every hole became a front-row seat to their entire golf experience. We watched every drive, every chunk, every search mission into the rough, and every putt from three different angles. I'm all for golfers of every skill level enjoying the game, but at some point pace of play becomes a group project. What made it frustrating was that we were constantly waiting on them while the ranger seemed fixated on us. I've played a lot of golf and have never seen a ranger appear this frequently. It was like having a very concerned wildlife photographer tracking our migration patterns. Every few holes, there he was. The funny part? We were a threesome of ladies hitting fairways, keeping pace, and generally doing everything golfers are supposed to do. If you're looking for the source of slow play, maybe don't start with the group standing around waiting. The ranger attention continued all day. By Hole 17 (Hole 8 on Lakeside), we were told to hurry up because an outing was starting in 12 minutes. Interesting. If the course knew an outing was scheduled, perhaps that should have been factored into the tee times they sold. It was hard to understand why the pressure was being directed at the group waiting on every shot instead of the group creating the backup. Then came another memorable moment. After a quick bathroom break heading to Hole 10, a van was blocking the only path to the next tee. We tried finding an alternate route and immediately got yelled at again--this time by entirely different personnel. Consistency is important, and Cantigny's staff certainly demonstrated consistency in that department. Initially, I wondered if some of the treatment had a sexist element to it. Later, after speaking with others in our group who experienced similar interactions, it seemed more likely that everyone was receiving the same abrupt treatment. Whether it was sexism, bias, or simply poor customer service, the overall experience left a bad impression. Also, the cart path only on multiple par 5s... NOT COOL! In summary: beautiful course, challenging design, excellent conditions, and a layout worth playing. But for $128 a person, I expect to spend the day focusing on golf, not participating in a live-action customer service obstacle course. Cantigny? Been there, done that, bought the overpriced tee time, and won't be back for a sequel.

* Please note this review is for a wedding and not the golf course *…read more When touring potential wedding venues, Cantigny stood out to us almost immediately. They were friendly and not pushy. 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.

For the annual "EKGs for EGK" charity event, I joined Nichole C and a couple friends for a shotgun scramble on 9/29/19. Bartlett Hills Golf Club is located just off of Route 59 & Bartlett Road in Bartlett, IL. Bartlett? BARTLETT!! It had rained heavily the previous day, so the course was soaked but our spirits weren't dampened. The sandpits became small ponds, and the small ponds turned into large lakes. Soggy greens screwed up my short game something fierce. The fairways were pretty f*cked up and many were unplayable in certain areas. Shout out to the woman with the salty language who drove the beverage cart (you da real MVP!) They had a decent selection of craft beer in cans for $5, plus the usual domestic swill, some nice imports, and even White Claw for those who hit off of the ladies' tee. The halfway house looked like it could benefit from a fresh coat of paint and other touch-ups. Course itself was of moderate difficulty, nothing too crazy. We only played half a round on the front 9, so I can't comment on the back 9 holes. Bartlett Hills is definitely more a low-key country club than challenging like Cog Hill. Afterwards, we adjourned to the banquet hall area where our group enjoyed a hot buffet, raffle, and silent auction. Food was more than decent: burgers, brats, baked beans, macaroni salad, coleslaw, and desserts. Staff were on-the-ball (golf pun for the win!) and they took great care of us throughout the event. * TL;DR * You know what they say: a bad day of golf is still better than a good day at work. Well, I've had some pretty awesome days at the office......and some damn lousy days on the links. Despite the fact that the rain really affected play (puddles would literally swallow our ball), we tried to make the best of it. I'm really glad we attended the event hosted by Tracy K -- both my fiancée and I walked away with sweet raffle prizes! In fact, our whole table cleaned up nicely with more than half of us taking something home. I'd be more than happy to come back next year, albeit in more favorable weather conditions. ((For those still not 100% sure where Bartlett Hills Golf Club is, I'm guessing it's located in Bartlett County within The United States of Bartlett. That's just a guess, though))
