The course was in great condition with the greens rolling quite nicely. A little slow playing today as a fivesome was allowed to play in front of us.

Windy City South

Play today with a great foursome: best friend, my son's best friend from out of town, and a new friend who joined us again after playing with us 2 days ago.

Wind 20 plus mph with Gusts close to 40. Greens and fairways in great condition. Wind didn't matter as we played match play per cart and still have fun in spite of the wind.

Kudos to the staff for having a course in great shape.

Good bang for the buck!

Fairways and greens were in great shape! Looks like this course was something special

In its day, but it could use some TLC around the edges (cart paths, rough, etc.).
