Good shape, but extremely slow

The course itself played pretty tough, and was in good condition. If I were able to come out during the week when less people were on the course, I think I would enjoy it a lot more. However, I played on a Saturday afternoon behind a foursome that was more concerned with chugging beers on the tee box than keeping up with the group in front of them. No marshalls ever spotted on the course to speed up play either. Pretty unacceptable to play 18 holes in just under 6 hours...

Not a $70 course

Used to be a premier course. A lot of bad spots and diseased grass. Maybe a $45-50 course. Super sad for what was a gem.

Beautiful course at a value price

A hidden gem in Chicago’s southwest suburbs at a very reasonable price. If you love playing golf in a rich setting with nature then this one will fit the bill. Well manicured with challenging sand and water hazards. This course is a must play!

Greens are punched

We booked a deal time but there was no aerification alert on that confirmation nor on any course times. Greens have just been punched and are in rough shape. I would stay away for at least two weeks. Otherwise, course was in good shape. Operator should do a better job of alerting customers of aerification.

Challenging course, lots of wildlife

Really nice course layout, very challenging with a lot of bunkers and tough pin placement, but the conditions are generally very good. Greens were recently aerated so really tough. Lots of wildlife, including deer and coyotes, which is fun to see. Biggest problem is that they really pack people in and pace of play can get pretty slow.

Great public course

Aside from the greens being aerated recently, the course was in good shape. Some of the sand traps had large ponds of water in them. Fortunately, I avoided those traps. Would recommend this course to anyone looking for a challenge.

Pray for some rain or turn on the sprinklers

Very slow, but could have been from the very windy conditions. Tee boxes and greens very hard from the lack of water. Sand traps could use some sand some were bare. Always a great layout, cart lady was on top of her game. There were also a lot of dandelions on the course. Good value.
