Needs sand

Course was overall in good shape as far as greens Fairways and tea boxes.

The traps were basically dirt, which was disappointing

Great Views

The course is in the middle of the Forest Preserve. Layout is beautiful. Tees, fairway and greens in good shape. The abundant bunkers were in rough shape. Almost no sand in any bunker. It was tough figuring out how to hit from hard pan surface.

Great round

Started with a 6am tee time and it was an amazing day. Cours is great, staff is great, sand is bad. The sand was more like grainy dirt.

All in all though this is a great course.

Terrible sand.

I lived near oak forest my whole life and would play this all the time. This course could be amazing if they just figured out the drainage and fix the bunkers. Every single bunker you CANNOT play out of. They need to eliminate 3/4 of the bunkers and just keep the green side ones maintained. I will not be playing here again ever till this sand is fixed. You can’t play golf by taking it out of the bunker every hole. Kind of pathetic.

Excellent course for the money

The course is somewhat challenging, with numerous sand bunkers in Play. Water is in play on 5 holes. Overall, an entertaining course. However, the bunkers need attention - many of them have mud at the low points. There are numerous divots that need filling.

Course layout great. Sand traps in awful shape but it’s still early in the year. Cart paths could use some work. For the price on a Saturday it is good, fix the sand traps and it would be great.

Decent course, sand needs some work

Played 18 and decided to keep going for only a $17 replay rate with cart. Course was very fun but pretty wet and was cart path only so the pace was a little slow. The sand didn't get raked and few traps actually had rakes so we just dropped off to the side. Looking forward to coming back when it's a little more dry. Staff are also some of the friendliest I've come across.

Love this course

GD is one of my favorite courses in the area for the price. Many challenging holes but not hard enough to scare off any beginners. Staff is super friendly and cart service was top notch. The only improvement needed here is the bunkers. Overall 9/10.

It was a day after it rained so it was cart path only. Grounds very nice. Semi difficult course which I like because it lets me concentrate more. Some crazy doglegs.
