Golfer Reviews
Geo Dunne Great Course
The course was in great shape We really enjoyed our round and are looking forward to coming back
Great track!
The course was in fabulous condition! Had a great time!
First time
Teed off at 916 and played in a 4.5 hours on the 4th of July. Course is is pretty good shape overall. Rough is not watered and pretty dried out. Overall course layout is great. Have some cool holes with good risk/reward option. Lots of bunkers on this course, most were in pretty good shape. Lots of trees, but fairly forgiving / wide fairways make it playable. No houses on this course, and the holes are spaced out, really nice, many holes you cannot see any other golfers unless they are in front or behind you. Gives it a country club feel. They have Golf Surf Boards which are pretty cool. Greens not overly fast but seemed to roll pretty true. Range had mats - not the best
This is a great course and great layout
Have played here many times over the years and love the course. Course conditions were okay, bunkers have improved but could still use some more work and cart paths need work. Staff very friendly and helpful and I enjoyed the course as always. Great layout.
Fun time
My friend and I wanted to try the new golf boards. They were fun and a different golfing experience. This is not the easiest corse but I always enjoy playing here. Employees are great and on a crowded day we had good movement on the course.
Great round.
The GOOD:
The place was in great shape. Greens were amazing, the sand was well-raked, the pro shop attendant was extremely nice. They have a grass hitting area on the range. They have surf board carts (next time I'll try one.)
Course is quite challenging. A few holes require some thought.
The bad:
A big storm rolled through the night before only left a few fairways wet.
Poison ivy/oak just off the course. I lost half a dozen balls during my round, only one ball was thirsty. Two of the other five were deep in the trees. The other three errant shots were right off the fairway, normal punch outs. After being warned at the pro shop and seeing the signs, I dropped and took the penalties.
I didn't rent a surf-cart! (But that's my fault not theirs.)
Will definitely be back.
Great course in even better shape!
A must play on the South side of Chicago! Course and greens are in phenomenal shape!
Get her Dunne
Get a little wild with some tee shots and you will leave some golf balls in the forest and water for preservation. Keep em straight and know your misses and this is a very getable course. A good value and fun track.
We are glad that you had a great time at George Dunne! Thanks for coming out to play; we look forward to seeing you again soon.
Tough Course - lots of bunkers
George Dunn GC is one tough course where you have to plan your next shot or you can land in their bunkers which has high lips & makes it challenging to get out. The greens were still recuperating from spring aeration & are big & uphill with a lip that will keep your ball from getting on the green. We had to wait on quite a few holes so play was longer than it should have been. The staff is very friendly & the course is in fairly good condition considering all the cold, wind, & rain this spring. Don't miss playing this course or you'll miss a good one.
Great course
The course was in excellent condition except for a couple of things, The areas where the rain water pockets and some of the cart paths need to be repaved. Other than that the course played very well.
This course challenges your game and approach
Staff very accommodating and professional.
Best Forest Preserve course
The best course the forest preserve course, only problem is it usually is a 5 hour death march. There are no rangers or anyone making sure you keep pace. Play early in the day and pace is better. Weekends and afternoons are usually worse
Great course, excellent service!
It's an excellent course layout and as challenging as you want.
We had the whole course to ourselves (It was Dec 26 and light drizzle) so pace of play was excellent.
The staff was very friendly accommodating.
Overall a great experience.
.
overbooked
Don't bother, go somewhere nearby, unless you don't mind the 5+ hour round.
Worth the wait
Had 45 min. Delay in start time due to early morning frost.
Very nice
After slogging through several 5 hour plus rounds at this course finally hit a sweet spot on a windy day and got around in 4:15. Course always suffers from extremely slow play unless you tee off by 11am at the very latest. It's a great track, extremely challenging (130 slope from whites) but there were several pin positions this day which were not remotely accessible for even the most accomplished golfer. Course is in decent shape, the bunkers are "maintained" better than they have been over the years but wish players would treat the greens a little better as there were ball marks all over the place....good green speeds and not too bumpy. Fairways are nice but rough is very short/sparse and course is playing hard and fast due to the lack of rain recently. The forest preserve must get a deal on their natural gas bill with two gas fire pits a-blazing at the 19th hole. It was nice not having to wait on every shot for a change and after a par on the 18th from the longer tees over the water I'll come back next season but gird myself for the usual 5 hour plus slog which is the norm.
Great time terrible pin placements !!!!
Course was outstanding great shape !!! The only complaint was the pin placements on four or five holes Putting pins on slopes where a short putt can end up 18 to 20 feet away from the hole isn't my idea of a enjoyable round of golf I can honestly say it cost my score 8 to 9 stokes and putting is the stongest part of my game !!!!
The course is in AMAZING shape and it's awesome to hear that you enjoyed your round. We definitely recommend trying out a golfboard next time they are at ton of fun!
