Demanding course

The person who checked us in had zero personality but maybe that is normal here. The course was in good shape. No beverage cart is odd but I asked at the beginning and knew it already before the round.

Great golf!

Great course for any level. Pace was excellent. Greens were in great condition & not too fast despite dry conditions. Staff was friendly & helpful! Couldn't ask for more from a Friday afternoon of golf!

Surprisingly Good and challenging

Great course to play, the staff is all very welcoming, friendly, and appreciative of their guests. The course is enjoyable, it’s challenging but open enough if you’re not a fairway golfer. I’d say the only complaint would be some greens had small patches of dead grass from decease or funguses that I’ve seen on many courses this year, overall it wouldn’t stop me from returning to play Black Rack again. I’ll be back again this year, even though I’m 50 miles away.

Favorite Course

Blackbrook offers an amazing value and experience for the cost of the green fee. The course feels like home, especially the back 9. The par 5’s and long par 4’s are some of my favorite holes to play anywhere. They also have the best driving range in Lake County.

Need more organization

I was excited to play here after getting a great deal and my BF having a great experience in the past. Unfortunately, the staff was very unfriendly, there was no starter and things just seemed very unorganized. The front 9 was very slow as we were behind a couple and their small child, which ahappens, we are all for children learning to play. So we thought the pace would pick up at the turn when they dropped off. This was NOT the case as several groups of young guys were started in front of us in the back and things were super backed up. We didn't even end up being able to finish our 18 because the round was just taking far too long and groups stacking up.
