2nd Round in 2026
Golfed on Sunday, April 26th and the West course was in superb condition! The weather was also excellent so it made for an enjoyable round. One opportunity to improve on is the snack bar closes way too early! The course should look at extending the hours of the snack bar at least 6 pm. Late afternoon golfers do not have an opportunity to enjoy a drink or snack after the round is over and this is a real miss!

Test your entire game.
The West course is much tighter than the Chicago Heights East course but is better maintained & more challenging.
