Makray Memorial Golf Club

Highly recommend if you want a course to truly test you

I postponed my reservation because of the bad weather, but I was so happy to be able to go to a good place at a good price. The green condition and friendly service were the best!!👍

Loved playing the course. It was challenging and fun. They even offered free bottles of water through out the course. It felt like a country club. Will definitely be back.

Great course in perfect condition with fast greens, and a balance of challenging holes mixed with short par 3 and 4’s.. Good range, pace of play on the weekend was excellent with rangers keeping the pace. Free bottles of water every 6 holes, and a drink cart on the course. Nice clubhouse with good restaurant/bar with friendly staff. For the money, an excellent championship level course.

I'll start by saying this is an excellent golf course, I just want to give a fare warning to those considering playing.

First the greens are by far the toughest I've putted on. Almsot all greens are long and narrow, and slope hard down from back to front. If you go above the hole (and with many front pins this happens often) you have anb extremly fast putt. On 9 (par 4) I was on in two but had a 40 ft putt down hill. I barely touch my ball and it rolls past the hole off the green and into a bunker. If you are up for the challenging greens then this is the course for you, but for a 15ish handicapper, it become a bit unejoyable by the time I had downhill put after downhill putt.

Also the conditions were not what I would expect for paying $100. Much of this could be attributed to the course being played frequently (and golfers not filling divots or fixing ball marks, but most fairways were littered with divots and a few greens were in rough shape from unfixed ball marks.

Overall a great course design, driving range, clubhouse, amenties (they had ice water out on many holes on a hot day). But the greens play extremely difficult and it isn't in top shape, I'm not overly eager to play this course again.

This course was a challenging course for a small time golfer. The par 3s were tough and were a stretch for par 3s. The par 5s were right on and the par 4s stretched us just enough to make the holes a fun challenge. I’d love to play this course again but at the price, I will probably find something closer to home at a more reasonable cost. Overall, great experience!

Fun track! Had a slow group in front of us, otherwise pace was fine. Greens are tough. Fast. Bring singles for the ball dispenser. Really nice folks working at every level there. Great time!

Great course in excellent condition, many challenging holes. Some par 4's are short but all have some feature that make it challenging. Would play this course all the time if I lived closer to it.

Loved this course. It was in beautiful condition, and it has a lot of elevation for a course in the Chicago area. The staff warned us about the greens being much faster than most public courses, and they were right. Very challenging, but this is probably my new favorite in the area!

Makray has a great layout. Great variety of holes and the best greens yearly. Good practice facilities including practice trap and pitching area.
