Hey, I'm shopping for a gift and want to get someone a few rounds of golf near their home.

What are some nice courses near Roselle, IL?

Depends on what you're looking to spend.

Schaumburg Golf Course is only one town away from Roselle and is my home course. It's real nice. It's not a top 100 course, but is always in great condition and the greens are fantastic...far better than other muni's in the area.

The top courses in the area are:

Pine Meadow

Cantigny

Prairie Landing (Links)

Highlands of Elgin

Bowes Creek

Chalet Hills

Blackstone (A little further west, but great course)

A little further south:

Cog Hill #2 & 4 (Dubs Dread the course they play the BMW Championship on)

Harbourside (2 Links style courses)

Ruffled Feathers (Pete Dye design)

The ones in red are all courses that I have played and would consider in the upper echelon of Chicago area public courses.  The ones in blue would still be very nice, but 2nd tier to the others.

Let me know if you have any other questions, I've played quite a few of the muni's in the area as well.

Wow,

Thanks for all of the suggestions.

Which is the best between Schaumburg, Pine Medows, or Cantigny?

If your friend has never been to Cantigny, maybe he can make time afterwards to see the 1st Division Museum, as well as the flower gardens, and McCormack Mansion. In the museum, there's one section where you're viewing a wall display, and suddenly you're in Normandy.  It's amazing. Those attractions are on the other side of the property.

I played it once, but it's out of my budget. Also have played Schaumburg.  It's very well kept. Rangers were very proactive but friendly  and pace was no problem. Cantigny makes for a good gift.
