$33 Steal

I got a deal for $33. This has got to be one of the best courses in the area and to find for that price was icing on the cake. I took one of my buddies from out of town to play and the course is difficult in spots, but it’s in great shape. I’m not a great golfer, but really enjoyed myself despite the difficulties on certain holes. Highly recommend this track for pretty much any price, but it was a steal for $33.

Great course, fairly challenging

A couple ball divots on the green otherwise would be 5 stars. Great layout, definitely have to hit your shots here or you'll be going through a few sleeves of balls.

Over booked, Too slow

What a waste of time, waiting for backed up groups, Played 9 holes in 2:45. I asked for a refund, for 9 holes, because, I would not spend another 3 hours in the heat at Lost Marsh.

They told me to contact Golf Now, and they would call the pro shop to verify I played . Golf now would credit my account, well, Golf Now Customer service closes a 4:00 cst, that is unacceptable. Plus, the wait is forever when you call, made me feel like a real vip, what a joke!

We played on a Tuesday. Course was not busy because of weather. Club house gentleman was very friendly. Allowed us to tee off before our time. Course was in excellent condition except for the greens. Very pitted, but I blame that on the golfers not the course. Will definitely be playing there again.

Awesome Course

Beautiful course & facilities with large practice area and beautiful clubhouse. Course was very well kept. First five holes are wild and pretty challenging but a ton of fun. Only knock on the course was the on-course staff could have been a little friendlier. Clubhouse & starter were great but once we got on the course we had a ranger come and take notes on something on our cart on more than one occasion while we were putting and never spoke to us. Another employee told us to hurry up and catch up to the group in front of us who was halfway done with 2 when we teed off on 1 and a threesome behind our foursome never waited on us once so our pace of play was completely fine.

Windy weather
Used cart

Links Type Feel

1st time playing in a while. Perfect course to get back in the swing of things. Good balance of easy and hard holes. Lots of winds at times making it feel like Scotland, but that was great.

Great clubhouse with views of the course and view of downtown Chicago on a clear day.

Challenge

We showed up as kind of a last-minute decision, but always wanted to play here. It was pretty late in the day and the man working the clubhouse was not shy about showing his displeasure about our arrival. We decided to let his rudeness go because of us showing up when we did. He told us we only had time for 9, which was fine with us. We paid and went out to play the round. We played the front nine and it is a gorgeous course. There is sand and water everywhere so you have to be pretty accurate with your Club selection especially on the first four holes. No complaints at all about the course, it is awesome. Later that night, we found out that we were charged the full 18-hole price per person. I'm assuming it was just an oversight by the clubhouse guy and not him trying to stick it to us for showing up late in the day. Hopefully this can still be rectified.
