About
Chevy Chase Country Club (formerly known as Traditions at Chevy Chase Country Club) in Wheeling is one of Chicagoland's top public golf facilities. Thomas Bendelow designed the golf course in 1925. The classic layout remained largely the same until 2002 when a major renovation updated the course and made it more challenging. The layout now has deep pot bunkers lined with tall native fescue that border the generous, rolling greens and undulating fairways. Though it is more challenging than it was, the golf course still offers a player-friendly round. Four sets of tees also ensure that golfers can play to their skill level. The course finishes with its signature hole, a par 5 that features water both left and right of the landing area off the tee. Three massive bunkers and yet another pond all fiercely guard the green as well.

One of the finest
The generous parking area can be accessed with the golf cart, which is very convenient. The proshop staff and the starter were more than helpful and we teed off right on time. The course was in excellent condition and the flag positioning on the nice and fast greens was fair. The layout of the course is challenging but not crazy difficult either. We enjoyed everything except the noisy private jet’s flying over us quite often

had fun
Would love to try this course again. Forward tees were fair for senior players. The water hazards were not in play much except for longer hitters. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
I would make some suggestions to improve the experience.
1. The booking process. I don't mind paying a booking fee, but the extra charge taken at the time was confusing and I thought unnecessary. even though it lowered the payment at the course.
2. Rest facilities. Although there were porta potties on the course, they could have been place more conveniently, particularly at the turn.
3. Amenities. Again at the turn, I would have liked to buy a snack and something to drink.
