Slow pace of play

If you like waiting to tee off on every single hole on every hole, then this is the place for you. The bunkers are not raked, the greens have many divots, and the fairways are covered with holes. It would say for the same price go to a different course.

Nice layout but could use some attention to the grounds and signage.

Has a good layout and fun to play. They need to repair or replace all the hole information signs!

Course in decent shape just needs a little attention.

But it is inexpensive to play so that might be the trade off.

Good For the money but…

Good course… lots of trees making a slight ob shot difficult. Tee boxes were rough on majority of the holes kind of hard to find a patch of grass to tee off on. The thing that was the worst is the lack of a ranger. Played as a duo with a buddy and by hole 4 got stuck behind a few senior foursomes that really destroyed our pace and ended up turning a 18 hole game into almost 5 hours

Place just never improves

Course is in bad condition. There are no good spots to hit on the tee boxes. Fairways are rock hard… it’s better to be in the rough as long as you’re not behind one of the million trees on this course. The greenskeeper is the worst part about this course; the pin placements are extremely difficult on many holes. A lot of the pin placements are what you would expect to see on the last day of a pro tournament, not a dive course that is filled with seniors and people trying to learn how to play. This is their way of making the course difficult and it works. Not to mention, the speeds are inconsistent as well. It’s an okay place if you want to have a cheap round, but don’t take things too seriously at this course.

Decent course

Pretty decent course. Hilly. Challenging on a few holes. A little confusing when trying to find the next tee off box as some of the signs or hard to see or not there and the layout can throw off first timers. All in all good price and fair course.

Chapel Hill Rebuild

The course is under new ownership and management and it seems that the improvements over the past two seasons have had a marked improvement. The greens and fairways are in much better shape and it seems that the number of players has also increased. All in all a very good value for the amount of greens fee.

Imagine a course full of teenagers

For $33 it wasn’t horrible. It wasn’t relaxing or organized either. The course is tightly laid out, not much as far as boundaries go, so balls are coming and going into your fairway and beyond all day. Seems to be a draw for the new or very high handicap players, as the general gold manners are mostly ignored. It’s almost a ‘take a penny, leave a penny’ way of golfing. Several times I came up to where my ball should have been only to find another brand of ball nearby with mine gone. Bottom line- the place is up for grabs. Go in with an open mind and sense of humor it still beats a day of work. Inside sign in lady was rude and obviously worn from dealing with the other boneheads who come here.

Good beginner course, but the conditions are pretty bad

Second time playing the course and being the first summer I’ve played golf it’s been a good course to play with little OB and forgiving rough. But tarter playing other golf courses in the northwest burbs this is without a doubt the worst kept course I’ve played at. It’s tough to distinguish the fairways from the rough, tee boxes are about 50% grass and 50% dirt. Even some of the green had large patches of dirt on them. A good course to play for value if you’re a beginner but not one I would frequently come and play time and time again.

Value golf

The course won't bring any thoughts of championship caliber but for $30, 18 holes + cart on a Sunday afternoon is pretty amazing. Some of the greens have some dead areas and the tee boxes are pretty beat up.

Okay for the money you pay

Perfect course for a low price and low key round. Fairways are dry and hard as usual, greens are soft as usual but in okay shape, tee boxes are horrendous. Most lies are tight, so don’t expect to be taking huge divots with each swing. Place is riddled with seniors and young people, both of which don’t have good feel for courtesy or general golf etiquette. Last time I went here an old dude had a heat stroke in front of us right in the middle of the green! But you can’t expect etiquette when you come here. This is a place you come for practice rounds or to drink with your friends. Also a very popular course for faculty outings and leagues… afternoon rounds can be very slow.

Good variety of hole types. Mostly short par 4s but some have a little length. Par 3s of all types, and the longest par 5 in Illinois (from the tips). Some of the greens are very difficult and sometimes they put the pins in near-illegal locations which is frustrating.
