Beginner/Intermediate 
Pros: - Nice, small park that is well maintained. There are other activities here, but they do not interfere with the DG side of things too badly.
- Great tee boxes, good baskets and signage.
- Pretty decent elevation changes on some holes, at least for the course's location. A shorter hole has an upslope which makes it play a lot longer than the 285' posted. The next hole has a nice downslope, which makes it easy but enjoyable.
- Lots of trees scattered throughout almost all fairways, or near the green, make accuracy very important. Almost every hole has a line through the trees, so it is not overly difficult either.
- A lot of holes favor a certain type of shot; like a RHBH or a RHFH. Helps to mix things up a bit.
- Hole 3 is a good challenge. It is a 90 degree wooded dogleg around a restricted area fence. There is a line if you want to overhand it over the fence; otherwise you have to play around the fence. I usually just hyzer it and lay up. But, if you are feeling brave, there is a line...
- One of the baskets is very susceptible to mud; they have put in bricks/steps so you can retrieve your disc without stepping in the mud. Thanks!

Cons: - Some of the tees are very, very close to the previous basket. Make sure to keep an eye out for overthrows, especially on tee #3.
- Just one or two of the holes having some more length would go a long way. If you are able to get it out to 350' consistently, there won't be much of a challenge here.
- Even with the various shots needed, it still is a little bland. I am pretty comfortable with BH and FH, so none of the holes are really challenging.

Other Thoughts: - A good all around course, but nothing really stands out to make it a destination spot. People I play with have very differing opinions, some like it, some dislike it, but nobody hates or loves it.
- Only navigation trickiness is getting from #5 to #6, the tee for #6 is on the other side of the small park.
- Trees help to keep the wind to a minimum, even in the open, which can be a nice change from the usual windiness of the Chicagoland area courses.

Other Thoughts: A great beginner course with enough variety to keep you entertained for the short time you'll be there. Usually I'll run through it twice just so I feel like I actually got a solid round in. It's built around a park with a few ball diamonds, tennis courts and playgrounds, so there's always traffic you'll need to deal with.
I end up here quite a bit as it's right by Woodfield mall. Nothing will help clear the idiocy of 13 year old mall-bunnies away like a few rounds of DG.

Pros: The course is in a small park with some minor elevation changes, and scattered trees and brush. There are some areas of the park with denser clusters of trees, and the course makes good use of these to add some challenge. Though the elevation changes are limited, most of the holes play up or down at least a small hill. None of the holes were completely wide open and simple, setting this course apart from the design of many other Chicago courses.
There was good length variety here. There were some ace run holes, a longer hole that lets you drive if you can get through or over the trees, and holes in between that offer a chance for an ace for experienced players and are reasonable for newer players.
There are great concrete tee pads on all the holes, that are very large and in really nice shape. The hole signs are in good shape, and show the hole layout with the distance. The course is extremely easy to follow, with no navigation issues at all.
I was pleasantly surprised by the design of this course. It's a small multi-use park, but the course doesn't really play into the other areas of the park, and only one of the holes endangers the walking paths throughout the park. There is more challenge here than it first appears.

Cons: The biggest issue on this course is the traffic it gets by non-players and inexperienced players with no sense of course etiquette. There were many people wandering around on the course rather than staying on the walking paths. They seemed to be oblivious to the course, and weren't interested in paying attention when asked to move or at least watch while you throw. The other players on the course were mostly people with one disc who wanted to throw on you on every hole but refused to play through.
The walking path is in a dangerous spot on the second hole, and makes for some waiting if there are walkers out. There are a couple playgrounds that aren't really in play, but could be with particularly bad throws. The third hole plays around the corner of a restricted area, looks like an easy way to lose a disc.

Other Thoughts: This is a great beginner course. The lengths are reasonable, but the holes aren't just wide open. There aren't many places to lose a disc. More experienced players will be surprised at some of the challenges on this course, and will likely have a fun quick round here.
This is one of my favorite Chicago 9 holers, and it's definitely worth a stop if you're in the area. Don't drive way out of your way for just this course, but there are some other fun places to play in the area that make it worth a look.

Pros: Park is very well taken care of and not to hard to find. Easy to shoot par once you have been playing for a bit. Even though some shots are marked par 4 I count all as a par 3.
some shots are very technical and will make you change up your shot. But nothing to fret about.

Cons: only 9 holes.
holes are short.
A lot of the "college crowd"
too many other things going on(walking paths, baseball diamond) also one of the holes is posted by the road, so just take a little off alright.
There is also a playground in the middle/side of a few holes..ahhh

Other Thoughts: All in all this is a decent 9 hole course. I lived about 5-10 minutes away but would only play it when I didn't feel like driving 20 minutes to another course.
Would like to see some bathrooms

Pros: Large concrete tee pads for each hole.
Very well manicured park.
A nice mix of attractive trees on every hole.
Baskets are all in great shape.
All but a couple holes have trees placed in ways that make you shoot accurate and low.
Nice signs with distance.
Excellent flow from hole to hole.
Very good use of the available land.
Beautiful little park.

Cons: Only a couple kind of long holes, but you can use the hole #2 tee box for an alt. tee location for holes #6 and #8 and add some distance.
Other Thoughts: Playing here has helped me improve my accuracy quite a bit. Would love to have a back nine, but not enough room, so a lot of people just finish hole #9 and walk right back to tee #1 for another trip around....

course is so so 
Pros: not to much to say here quick little 9 hole course
Cons: basket # 2 is missing all that is there is the metal pole. hole 3 it a joke snice they moved it a few years back. way to many high school kids they dont know anything about disc golf groups of 10 + people wont let a group of 2 people play though
Other Thoughts: dont go out of your way to play this course its not worth it i live a mile away thats way i play it here and there

Good For Beginners
Pros: Well marked and maintained. Very easy to play.
Cons: Very easy to play. The "par" scores were extremely generous.
Other Thoughts: A nice course that can allow beginners to get some practice in without racking up some atrocious scores. More experienced players may not find it challenging enough.

First Impression Pros: Nice, clean, cement tees.
Cons: Most holes are crazy short, and only 9 holes.
Other Thoughts: I just moved up to area from FL, lots of courses there, and I am surprised to see how short, wide open, no hills, few trees, there are at all of the courses within 10 miles of Schaumburg. And, most of the courses are 9 holes, never seen that before.

Very nice 9 hole course
Pros: - Great concrete tees
- Good signage for every hole
- Beautiful park, mature trees and bushes provide challenging lines with most holes
- Minor elevation changes make for some interesting holes
- Good signage for every hole
- Beautiful park, mature trees and bushes provide challenging lines with most holes
- Minor elevation changes make for some interesting holes
Cons: - High non-golf traffic with walking paths, baseball field, and playground equipment.
Other Thoughts: This is a good 9 hole course that emphasizes control and accuracy instead of distance and power. The course is well laid out, with excellent cement tees for every hole. Good signage gives par, footage, and general direction of play for each hole. There is one opportunity to lose a disc, which is a blind shot on hole three. Otherwise, there is a very good use of mature trees and bushes to force the player to use a variety of accurate shots on the course. Non disc golf traffic could be a problem on some days, with the park being multi-purpose with a baseball field and some playground equipment possibly being in play. Hole 9 finishes close to Biesterfield Rd, so some caution should be exercised to prevent a trip out onto a busy road.
All in all, a fun course for beginners just stating to play as well as veterans needing to place to practice their short game. Well worth 30 minutes to play a round.

Pros: Very nice concrete tee pads. Well mantained park. Easy to navigate. Great course for beginners. Tee signs are a plus.
Cons: Lots of park activity for example
-playgrounds
-baseball field
-only street parking (unless you live close enough to walk)
Very busy
Short holes I only brought a midrange and a putter longest hole is about 327 feet
9th hole basket is right by the road and is a short hole if you over throw you can either land on a busy road or hit a parked car.

Other Thoughts: You have to play pretty heads up here lots of beginners with very inaccurate throws. My unlce live like a quarter mile from this course I play it when I visit him (short walk) Great course for beginners and for better players is good practice.
