Lost Marsh

Staff was awesome, especially the starter Tom!! He was engaging and super helpful. Natalie in the restaurant upstairs was AWESOME!! My only complaint would be the greens. Does no one repair ball marks or why doesn't the course fix them? I fixed at least 10 on every hole, the course should send staff to clean them up, it would pay off in the long run

My new favorite

Loved everything about the place. The course was challenging but fair, and the staff/amenities were excellent. Stan the starter was was fantastic and I played 18 in <3.25hours. Can’t beat the place for the price. Will definitely be back.

Good value, beautiful property, friendly staff

Frank in the pro shop is knowledgeable and friendly. Stan the ranger is a great guy and helpful. The cart girl came around several times. The course was in good shape, the greens were a bit used but still in descent condition. The T boxes were pristine. The fairways were great and the rough was penalizing. Overall excellent experience due to the staff and beauty of the property. I will definitely continue to play here

Top 10 in Chicago land

The first 5 holes are truly some of the best holes in terms of views and challenges. Super fun course and if manage to shoot well after the first 5 holes you can go low. Drinks and food are really priced better than anything in IL. Add to your bucket list and worth the drive.

Our Group Loves This Course

Lost Marsh is challenging with plenty of water to navigate with what I call target golf. On a clear day, it has great views of the Chicago skyline.

Although it is a 1-1/2 hour drive from our north-central Indiana home, it is worth the drive to play there several times each summer.

Nice course, but would not play it in the rain

The course was good and we liked the GPS on the carts; however, it was raining on our day of play and there were several holes restricted to cart path only. The cart GPS system will warn you and then turn the cart off if you go into restricted areas. I am okay with restricted areas, but some of the restricted areas are merged with the cart path, so you are following cart path only restriction and then your cart can't move. It happened multiple times during our round, which was frustrating enough due to the rain & wet conditions.

If I play the course again, it will be during better weather and hopefully less cart path only holes.

It’ll test you but great course to play

Went with 3 buddies and pace of play was great. Staff was very friendly and I’ll tell you that the 1st 4 holes are a little rough but it gets easier from there! Great course would absolutely play again

Greens??

I love this place and play it at least once a week but I have to say again and again, the greens stink! People do NOT fix their ball marks and the place doesn’t have staff fixing them either. They layout and staff are awesome but you need to address the green situation or in 2 years you will lose 65% of your normal players

Another great round at Lost Marsh

Greens were in great shape (usually a bit slow) and the course is in great shape (if you dont mind all the geese). Played in 3 hours and they were fairly busy. Love this place. Just get through first three holes and theres lots of good chances for birdies and lots of chances for trouble. Just how I like it.
