Lives up to its rep!
Well-conditioned and maintained, the course has long been known for its tough elevated greens and tricky, fast, contoured putting surfaces. It’s all true! Bring your best putter and pitching wedge with you. Nothing else is a challenge here - it’s all short game stuff. No water, no sand. Some seemingly randomly placed mounding close to the greens are a factor, too. It’s a long ways to travel to be frustrated with repeatedly short approach shots and wildly missed putts, but you need to experience the toughness of the Elk at least once!
Great course. Driving range is irons only.
Drove an hour to play here. Great course. Was in great shape. Tee boxes were in great shape fairways were nice. Greens are big and challenging.
Where's the ranger?
Always liked this course. How does it take 4 hours to play only 13 holes, especially after playing the front nine in 1 1/2 hours? I "caught up" with a threesome, behind a foursome, on the tenth tee. Never saw these people on the front nine. We're they inside having a hot dog for half an hour?
Gave up after 13. Rode in to the clubhouse from there and never saw more than a twosome once past that slow group of seven.
Wednesday, mid-day tee time. I hate to imagine what the pace is like on a weekend. Beware.
Great
Awesome as always..... greens were FAST!!!!! My son and I had a blast...
Over all a great day
Staff was great . Food and drinks were good. The day we were there was 80 deg with a heat index about 87. There was no cart person driving around with drinks or food. The ports pitied out on the course needed some help the condition and smell wasn’t good. The only reason I mentioned this we had a woman in our group. Over all o give this place a B for a grade. The greens are very tricky. The challenge was great. I will definitely be coming back.
Good Value
Challenging elevated greens, in great condition. Eliminating the traps made this course “more fun” as it’s still a challenge but not over the top. Super staff.

Really nice course!
Kankakee Elks was a very challenging course. Some tough long holes and the rough was very rough! Not many sand traps , which is good! Greens were pretty tough.
