I Recommend This Course
Hidden Chicagoland Gem
There are lot of legendary golf clubs in Chicagoland but this one deserves love like several others get. Ruth Lake CC offers challenges off the tee and on every approach. Equal parts fair and challenging with greens that run like the 100m Olympic Finals. I love this course and need another go at it…
