Tough but Fun
Really enjoy this course. First time out, did not play well. This time shot 91, which is not too horrible from the silver tees. 20mph winds. Plays like a true links course. If you can get thru the first 5 holes without the water eating the balls, you should be good from there. Saw a bald eagle! Big dood perched on a small low branch in one of the small lakes. Will definitely be back. Well kept, great staff, great experience.
Nice
It felt like I was playing in the caribun it's a unike golf corse different than any other corse very challenging but fair
Buecholic course among the refineries and steel mills
Very nice course but a little too tricky for it's own good. Too many blind shots. But a fun course none the less. It's a shame they are aerating the greens this week because they roll great and are already too soft. Totally not necessary.
A very interesting layout. Quite a few tempting short 4's
Played on a perfect fall day. Got paired with two other gentlemen who were about the same skill level.
Enjoyed the course, the tee boxes and fairways were in good shape. The greens were a bit beat up. Not very smooth or fast. I could have spent all day fixing ball marks of other less considerate golfers which really was my only gripe .
Great layout very challenging
This course will give you every shot you are looking for. Lost marsh makes you think about every shot. Great course well play again
Lost Marsh September 2014
Very challenging course. Front 9 in particular. If you aren't extremely accurate, better bring a lot of extra balls!!! Back 9 not as tough, but not knowing the course made it a lot harder.
Fantasy course
Played in extremely poor weather which made a extremely difficult course horrific. Layout reminds me of one of the fantasy courses on Tiger Woods golf game! Front nine is all target golf hopping across islands and back nine moves into the trees a little. Seems every hole is a "signature" hole which is great at first but surprisingly gets a little old after a while. Course conditions great, even in heavy rain. Would recommend to play but take plenty balls, have fun and dont beat yourself up when you shoot high numbers.
Surprise in the Middle of an Industrial Park
As you approach Lost Marsh, you cannot believe you are going to be playing golf on a nice course. The area is not a pastoral setting.
Yet when you get there and go into the gorgeous clubhouse you forget where you are.
The course is tough, especially the first 5 holes. Bring a ton of balls as there is water everywhere.
The staff is generally friendly, even though the person who signed us in was not particularly friendly.
one of the best in the area
Enjoyed this course a lot, lots of different looks, greens in really good shape, the club house is excellent, and the staff could not be more friendly.
Keep the driver in the bag.
What a beautiful course. Great layout. Brutally slow pace at midday Saturday, somewhat to be expected. Great Facility, great staff. I will play here again.
Excellent course
Great course Well kept. Several tough holes.Very challenging course.Greens and fairways kept well,nice staff.I like it a lot.
Good value
Tough course. Played on a Saturday morning. Though I'm a high handicapper, I do keep pace. I don't spend a lot of to me looking for a $2/ball. Can't say everyone takes my approach. Course can do a better job preparing you for shot strategy on a few holes. Live along lakefront, easy to get to, good value compared to comparable course in north suburbs.
A fun yet challenging golf course
Didn't feel like I was in Indiana at all. Beautiful track, good condition.
zig
Course was beautiful and we'll maintain. Only negative was greens we're freshly sanded and putting was very difficult.
Good course - not worth the money
This was about the 4th time I played the course. The staff and clubhouse are excellent. The price is a bit high for similar courses. The greens still had some issues across the course. The rough in on the course is almost too thick to enjoy yourself as any ball that misses the fairway can be near impossible to find. I would play here again, but it would have to be at a cheaper price.
Challenging
This course is tough.....a lot of water that is in play on most shots.
A very nice place to play
I really like this course. It has many challenging holes, some of regular difficulty, and a few that are pretty easy. That's a nice mix for an average golfer like me (12 hcp). There are a couple of greens that have suffered some kind of significant damage, but most are fine. Some holes take some getting used to, because your best strategy for some tee shots and approach shots can hard to figure out (this is true, for example, on 3, 4, 5, 14, and 15). The staff is great. For me, living in Chicago's South Loop, it's the easiest good course to get to -- 20-25 minutes max.
Like a secret garden surrounded by industry
Beautiful and challenging. Be sure to bring extra golf balls; but you'll probably find as many as you lose! You'll use all your clubs here. Make sure you have gps! All kinds of holes at this course, lots of adventure. I scored 3 birdies, 4 pars & 11 "others". LOL! Play here, you won't be sorry.
Surprise find
Great layout, quirky design with target golf in mind. Really enjoyed it, definitely need to come back now that I know the hole layout better.
Balls Deep at the Marsh
Excellent golf course. Played here many times.
The tee boxes and greens are in need of repair but so do all the golf courses that I have played.
The course is well manicured and worth the price to play.
Watch out for the beverage cart girl. She is mean and rude.
