College Park Athletic Club

My friends son used to attend college park and went their for taekwondo. She told me the masters weren’t the best and the facility was very small.

I attend CPAC quite frequently. I have kids that train and play at this facility, and I think it is a great place to be and take my kids. The pros are excellent, and I feel that I get a well worth my time experience being a member of this club. It is a top club in my opinion, and I have attended many clubs over the years. If you are looking to switch clubs or looking to join one for the first time, this is a highly recommended club. There is more great things about it, and it offers other things than just good tennis. Go and find out!

This place needs an overhaul. It’s dirty, falling apart, and leaking. They don’t even have enough chairs for parents waiting for their kids to finish a lesson. The instructors are hit and miss. My kid is on the 4^th instructor in a 10 week session. We tried CPAC for the first time because it’s close to our house. There are much better choices, like Midtown or Racquet Club in Lake Bluff.

This club has been a game changer for my son. The entire experience from the front desk, the pro’s, to help in buying the proper tennis shoes has been A++.

I have been playing at and for this club since 2004 and I am a huge fan.
There is a huge variety of classes with amazing instructors you can choose from. Some of the classes are coached at college park and others at Marriott in Lincolnshire. The prices here are a tad higher than at some other northwest suburbs clubs, but this place is well worth the extra buck. The coaches are very very good. Classes are fast paced and very educational.
Not only does this place have tennis courts but it also has racquetball, taekwondo, and a fitness club. What a variety!
The facility itself is very modern, clean, and has many accommodations. The bathrooms/​locker rooms are fanominal. They are always clean, stocked on free tampons, good blow driers, hairspray, free towels, lotions, razors, etc. You want it, they got it. There is even a whirlpool!
The upper level is the main floor and it looks over the tennis courts, on both sized of the building. Amazing views! This is what every club needs. People can cheer from above without being on the same level as you, and everyone has a great view of the game.
The staff is always very friendly.
I give it 4 stars and not 5 because of a few things. The parking lot gets packed and is very hard to get in and out of it. The lighting seems to always make my eyes hurt by the end of my time there… And for some reason I feel like there is something always missing, like a welcoming atmosphere, feel like its missing here. It feels like you come in play and get out without getting that warm comfort.
Whether you are new to tennis or have been playing for years I suggest you try it out, you are sure to like it!
