Great Deal on GolfNow, but otherwise too pricey

If you diligently watch GolfNow you can score a good deal to golf here. Personally, I don't pay the normal rate because there are too many very good courses within 10 miles. That being said, the fairways are generous, they greens are very challenging, the overall layout and the views are outstanding (on every hole). Negatives: common fairway landing spots have a lot of divets, need for greens to be repaired from ball marks, pump out the sandtraps (lost 2) because of deep/muddy water, and fairway repair mixture was almost empty. Finally, the parking spot markings are really tight. When they are re-done, should be wider.

Thank you for your review. What you fail to mention about the course conditions on the day that you played is that you were playing golf at an open golf course while other courses were closed in the marketplace due to weather that affected the entire Chicago area multiple days which included flooding rains, wind damage and tornadoes. 16 tornadoes to be exact, confirmed by the National Weather Service as I write. Your review, failed to mention that.

You also failed to mention you were playing golf at our too pricey facility while other local courses in the area were closed. We had 200 plus happy golfers that got to play golf and got to use carts. We made their day and accommodated many golfers that wouldn't have gotten to play golf that day. You may ask - why did that happen? It happened because the operation and maintenance staff was diligent starting at 4:00 AM getting the course ready for play and moving flooding waters off of playing surfaces, cleaning up tree limbs and branches so you could play golf and take a cart. YOUR WELCOME!

As far as divots and ball marks - here is a friendly suggestion, fix your own divots and ball marks on the course and you'll be a step ahead of many golfers who basically have no golf etiquette or refuse to bend over and fix their divots and ball marks but yet complain if it affects their perception of how golf courses are maintained. Perception and reality are two different things, but that is hard to learn when golfers should actually blame other golfers ahead of them for not fixing their ball marks and replacing their divots. It's called stewardship of the game.

As far as the parking lot spaces in the lot, they are the required length and width and have been the same since 2002.

Thank you for your feed-back.

One of the Beat

This course is always in great shape. The staff is excellent, fun, and professional. Played late afternoon 4:30 tee time and still finished 18. This course is tough, but extremely fair. Highly recommend to golfers of almost any level.

Slow

It’s a fun course and played it before but I alway get frustrated at pace of play and lack of ranger. This round was the worst. Started the back at 5 pm. 3 hrs later we finished 17. We got to 18 with 3 groups on the hole. There was already 2 groups that passed us to quit and with wait of 15 min to tee off we left too.

Great course but large ricks in the bunkers?!?

If they had white sand bunkers would be a 5 star course. In excellent shape but my only complaint is many large rocks in the bunkers!! I don’t even see this at a par 3 course with $15 dollar green fees. Also put some water jugs out there too

Great rayout

It was hard to play because of the wind, but the course was so beautiful that I made a pleasant round.

The course was well managed and the water hazard and sandbunkers located in the right place helped make the rounds more tense and enjoyable.
