Course conditions were very good, especially considering the previous day's heavy rainstorms. Always enjoy playing here; it's a nice challenge, and the staff are friendly and welcoming. The clubhouse outdoor bar is great - good club sandwich! Green fees during the season can be high, but this is one of the better pay-and-plays in the area.

Fun Course

I started playing this course in December 2020 - January 2021 when our family came down from Chicago for a couple months during COVID and loved it. Twenty-Seven holes each unique and the price was fair. Price bumped up a bit in 2022 to $90, which seemed a bit pricy, but still played it several times. Now the course is charging $145 before noon and $125 after noon. If you can get a hot deal take it - but the course and conditions aren’t any better than they were a couple years ago. But the place is still full everyday, so the economy must be way better than people whine about.

Beautiful day

We throughly enjoyed our round of golf at University Park. The conditions were great, the staff was very friendly and accommodating, and the couple that we were paired up with were enjoyable to play with. I will certainly recommend this course to friends, and be back for sure.
