Needs Better Accommodations
Played Marovitz for the first time, and though I liked the course, it is lacking in basic amenities. In the men's room, signs are posted that several toilets are closed because of a falling ceiling. The clubhouse looks like it hasn't been renovated in decades. The course is always crowded, so there are people waiting at the first tee, but there are no benches for them. Zero. Can the Chicago Park District find a few benches and/or picnic tables? The greens were in good shape, and though the fairways were dry from lack of rain they were still playable. This is the busiest course in Chicago, so I would hope that the Park District can make some improvements.
Nice Course, Rude Starter
Always like playing at this course. My group was at our morning tee time on time and the starter made us walk up to the middle of the fairway to star the round, he was rude and didn’t answer our questions for why we had to do this. Hope others haven’t had a similar experience. Hopefully this was a one time thing.
Great after work round
Great place to play 9 holes after work. The course was in great shape, very easy to find errant balls. They had sprinklers on while we were playing which was troublesome at times but otherwise a perfect round
The starter is extremely rude
The course is very nice, especially for the price and located beautifully right off the lake. The starter they employ, has been rude, mean, and extremely.intense any time we have played there. The guy takes his job WAY too seriously and needs to do something about his anger problems. He yells at people and is very inappropriate. Seriously, reign this guy in, he screws the whole thing up to use his words.
Solid 9 holes at the right time
Sydney is a really solid 9 hole course with some great lake views. The course plays to a fair length even though it's not the biggest piece of land. Considering how much play it gets, they do a nice job maintaining the course. Staff has always been friendly too. Be sure to go early though as pace of play gets slow pretty quickly within the day.
Terrible
First of teeoff never mentioned course was having construction and second not a word about greens being punched dime size holes. So over all it wasn't a good experience
