Excellent for the value!
Great course, plenty challenging but fair as well. First 6 holes can be brutal w/ the high intense winds that blow out there, really tests your concentration but a lot of fun. Clubhouse is very nice, staff was very accommodating, and food wasn't bad either. I'll certainly go back and absolutely recommend this course.
Overbooked course
Played this past Saturday - tee'd off at 2pm and did not finish until close to 8pm. The course booked a shotgun scramble with 2 4 some's per hole and also overbooked the other tee times... very frustrating.
Thank you for your review. We realize pace of play is very important to your overall experience. We will look into ways to improve with our staff. We hope to see you back for another round!
Challenging public gem
This was my first time playing this course, and I was totally blown away by the clubhouse amenities and the layout of the course itself. This is truly a great place to play, and it's reasonably priced. It will challenge your ability to manage your shot selection on every hole. I'm definitely booking another tee time soon. Check it out on Google earth.
Thank you for your excellent review! We are so happy to hear how much you enjoyed Lost Marsh and we look forward to seeing you back for another round soon!
windy
a great course to play, very challenging,but even more difficult with the wind blowing
Thank you for your review! We are glad you enjoyed your round and hope to see you back for another soon!
Hospitality
Whoever the grumpy non welcoming old man at the first tee was started us off on the wrong foot. 1st time ever at the Marsh was an employee rude & not friendly.
Thank you for your feedback. We are so sorry your experience fell short with regards to customer service. We will be sure to address with our staff. We hope to see you back for another round soon!
Over priced but good
Greens in rough shape and had a hard time finding tee box distance marks. Pace was slow but still ok. Great facilty and easy to get to. Challenging course that will test your accuracy.
Thank you for your review! We hope to see you for another round soon!
Great course. Very competitive.
First five holes have water in play. On top of that the hole are "links" styled with prairie grass all along the fairways. A real challenge but the course is worth playing for the great conditions. Staff was very cooperative and the clubhouse is phenomenal. Had a great time.
Thank you for your great review! We are so happy to hear they you enjoyed your round with us so much, and we look forward to your next one!
Don't sweat the start.
Doesn't play as long as scorecard says. First 4 holes gets your attention. But after that, birdies can be made. All but one par 5's are reachable. It's a fun and fair course
Thank you for your great review! We often hear that Lost Marsh is a challenge, and congratulations on a great round! We hope to see you back for another round soon!

Low handicap golfers only
This course is in great shape however I would only recommend it to better golfers due to design and wind.
Thank you for your review. We hope to see you for another round soon!
Loads of Fun
Great layout. Must play some position golf to score well. Lots of water to play over and around. Greens were slow when we played. View layout of holes if this is your first time playing as you have a number of blind shots to make and may have to use a different club to get to the best position.
Overall a fun and challenging course with great value.
Thank you for the great review! We enjoy a challenge too! We have a free GPS available on our website - LostMarshGolf.com - if you would like to utilize it for a bit of a competitive edge!

Very Glad We Played Here
We played 18 here on a Monday afternoon and had a great time. The course is challenging and fun. There are plenty of opportunities to clean out the bag, sending a few balls into water hazards. The views are beautiful, the holes are unique, the condition of the course was excellent. If I lived here, I'd play it often.
Also, the pro shop and ranger staff were friendly and helpful, and the restaurant staff was attentive and prompt. Highly recommend. Really, this course is worth coming to.
Thank you so much for such a great review! We love hearing about golfers' experiences and are so happy that yours was enjoyable all around! We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to your next round!

Thank you for the review! We hope to see you for another round soon!
diamond in the rough
first time played it and was awestruck by the challenges, even without the danger of water all about. it was well worth the drive from Frankfort Illinois to play it and I hope I can convince my playing partners to make this a must on our travels.

beautiful
First time playing this course and it was as equally challenging as it was beautiful. Course was in excellent condition, except for too many ball marks on the greens (which I blame on the golfers more than the course management/employees). It was a extremely wet and rainy day, but had a wonderful time. The course was exceptionally challenging and tight, and gave ample opportunity for precision and creativity - not my strong suit, but great risk/reward opportunities and played fair. I would highly recommend
Thank you for the great review! We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed the course - and the challenge! We look forward to your next round.
Great Course
This course was awesome. The front nine is built around a ton of water providing challenging target-style golf (to play it safe you can leave the driver in the bag). The back nine has it's challenges but it has far less water and is a little more forgiving if you hit a bad tee shot. It is very well maintained with great fairway grass and quick greens. All in all this course was great for the value, not too crowded, played at our groups own pace, and I will definitely play there again.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a great review! We are so happy you enjoyed the course and we look forward to your next round!
Very fun course
Lost Marsh is a golf course that challenges your decision making. The course is in very good shape and has lots of water.
Thank you so much for your nice review! We take pride in offering a challenge and strive to keep our greens in great condition. We hope you come back for another round soon!
Unique and Challenging Layout
Played here on a Saturday at Noon. The drive from Chicago only took 30mins.
The course conditions were excellent from tee to green. The opening 6 holes are very difficult due to water harards and tight fairways. There is a real mix of wide open fairways and very narrow fairways.
The first 9 holes took 3 hours and the back 9 holes was 2 hrs 30min. So the only downside was a 5.5 hour round. The food and drinks are priced generously.
Thank you so much for your thorough review! We are so glad you enjoyed the challenge and your experience overall! We look forward to your next round!
Thank you for your review and recommendation! We look forward to seeing you back for another round soon!
