Tanna Farms Golf Club
About
Tanna Farms Golf Club in Geneva offers some of the best golf that the Fox Valley has to offer. The layout meanders across prairies covered with wildflowers and weaves through lush wetlands. The course begins with the stunning signature hole. The par-3 opener has an island green that sets the scene for this thrilling and memorable round. Although it's a seemingly short course at 6,510 yards from the back tees, what it lacks in length it makes up for with plenty of other challenges. Besides the first hole, there are a few other tough par 3s, including one with a postage-stamp sized green. There are some daunting par 5s as well. Tanna Farms Golf Club is not a lengthy course but the layout is generously spaced to offer breathing room between the holes and the undulating slopes and subtle elevation changes make it pay much longer.

Great Fun Course
Fabulous layout with lots of hazards to keep it interesting.
Great course to take my wife and son to
Fun Course but Maintenance Needed
I always enjoy playing Tanna Farms. It's a fun course that makes you think about each shot starting off with a very short Par 3. If you're an accurate shooter, you'll do well on this course, however, if you're not, bring many golf balls because you'll likely lose a few. The course does need some maintenance especially the tee boxes, which were chewed up. Also several greens appear to have had some disease or something based on large bare spots. Finally, the cart paths are in need of repaving. They are pretty beat up.
Tanna Farms
Course- greens and tee areas were very poorly conditioned. Especially on PAR 3 holes
Layout- lack of signs is confusing to first time golfers. Especially at hole 8. No halfway house at hole 9. Course design is overly complicated for the poor conditions
Staff is friendly
Far local drive from NW suburbs.
I won’t recommend nor play at this course again.
Good, Tough Course
Pace of play was very slow (5 hours for the 3 of us to finish the round due to very slow group in front). Would recommend a ranger on the course to help pace stay on track. Greens were pretty rough for this time of season. Fun course, but beware of very little room for error on the majority of the course. Would definitely play again.
Greens were in terrible condition, not just a few but almost all of them. I've played this course 1 or 2 times per summer for the last 7 years and the rate, plus the course is very reasonable but I won't be returning.
Tanna Farms
Course had a unique layout but was virtually unplayable due to massive puddles and standing water. Tee boxes were in rough condition and greens were incredibly inconsistent regarding quality and length of the grass.
Good Track for the Money
I am a 13 Handicap. Only including that for reference to your own expectations of how a course should play based on your own handicap and experience level.
Course layout is fun, I hit every club in my bag. Everything was well maintained. Greens were super slow, but I played during a 2 week heat wave and it’s understandable that they are growing them out to save them from dying. There is no range, so don’t show up early to warm up.
Tanna Farms
Beautiful course, great for target golf. Not a great course if you aren't a multiple time per week golfer I wouldn't recommend. Greens were in rough shape. Overall a bad day golfing, is still better than a good day atvwork. The price point got my attention as I was taking my son out for his second time on a course. (he has been taking lessons for a few years).
