Great value
Did a hot deal where I only payed $30 for 18 holes and I was very happy with the quality of golf for that price. Will definitely be going back soon.

Fun course, playable with challenges.
First time playing this course. Tough time of year to play because everyone seems to have sanded and punched greens. The only real negative that seems to me to be preventable was the way the holes in the greens have been cut. Most definitely had donuts around the hole, so you need to be very aggressive with your putts. Nice layout with interesting holes with elevation changes. Would definitely play again.

Fun Course, Good Value
I play Lake Forest often. What I like: tight layout, improved greens and tee boxes, can be quick to play depending on time of day ( early), easy to get tee times, Stephanie, the cart attendant.

Great Course!
The layout and everything else is fine, pace of play rarely a problem. Course conditions got 3 stars not for lack of effort, it's been very hot and there's been a TON of rain Jake and his crew are doing an awesome job! Keep it up!

Good Value
Fairways were alot of hard pan, greens were bumpy but I think they must have just been aerated. I did enjoy the layout of the course though. Had a ton of charcter. Lots of doglegs and a par 3 that felt like it had a drop of 60 feet or so. I wouldnt mind playing again for the money.
