Eagle Creek Golf Course

Course was I. Great shape. Beautiful day very challenging

Eagle Creek is an excellent and challenging course. It was in great shape. The fairways were well groomed.

This course has a lot of trees and doglegs. Be prepared to come up with some strategy instead of reacing for the driver all the time. The greens are a little small and there are bare spots in some of the fairways but pretty decent for a course in the country. No drinking water to be found anywhere. This may be a covid aftereffect but its hard to do 18 with what you carry in your bag.

The greens were aerated but in pretty good shape. Will be great in a few weeks

I really like this golf course and have played in the summer. This was first time in the fall and the fairways on some holes were in poor condition. Several had areas completely turned to mud perhaps from the sprinkler system. Also, leaves everywhere. It’s frustrating to lose balls on fairways because the leaves are so thick you can’t find them. Upkeep needs upgrading in the fall.

Monday in September should have a good speed of play. Not so. Lots of two-somes and three-somes that we’re not very good, extremely pokey and inconsiderate. As a single I got stuck behind people who didn’t offer to let me play through. I had to jump holes. Others thought every shot was the deciding factor for the Master’s, requiring a five minute conversation.

This is a terrific course, but when it is crowded they need a warden to move people along so they maintain a reasonable pace of play.

I really liked playing Eagle Creek, really I did. I thought the holes were really interesting, it really tested your game management skills. Lots of doglegs. Lots of elevation changes. I am sure, in fact I am positive, any other year, it woulda been one of my top 3 courses., You certainly do not need your driver. I hit one driver all day...smoked it...cut off a good bit of left to right dogleg left side of fairway...100yds out...last pic is the lie...terrible...disheartening.

Problem is....the condition. It was awful. It looks like the superintendent/greenskeepers tried, but gave up. Many many many bare spots in the middle of fairways, The greens also, bare patches everywhere.(pic 3)...Not a single putt of any length today that didn’t have to travel thru a thin spot. Not one. I guess the “regulars” have given up too. I fixed many ball marks. some cups looked like a few putter heads dove in to retrieve the ball.

I really liked this course, didn’t like the nearly hour long drive to find it in such bad shape. Save your play for next year. I am sure it will be in tip top condition, and it’ll test you...make you think. Well, at least I hope so.

Tee boxes were not set up, greens were in bad shape. Layout is horrible unless you prefer dog legs. Guy behind counter made feel guilty for using golf now. He said he should charge me something because they don't make any money when someone books through golf now. I do not recommend this course.

This is one of the top courses in Illinois. Went back to this course for first time in 15 years. It is a hidden gem! Layout is championship caliber, condition could be better. It is challenging and fun with several par 4 & 5 that you can not use a driver on the tee box. The value is phenomenal, you can not find courses like this for the price. Awesome setting off Lake Shelbyville with plenty of wildlife. It is worth the 2 and half hour drive.

Booked a tee time. No aerification alert and no information that the course was Carr paths only. Tried to play two holes and was not enjoying. Came back asked for a refund or rain check so I can come back and play when the conditions were good was told no.

Sand bunkers and tees need some work. Fairways and greens good.

The area had a lot of rain. The fairways were kinda wet in several spots. Had no problems with the greens. Overall the course is in very good shape.

This course is a great play. Several dog legs and a few blind tee boxes to test your abilities. Great view of the lake on the back nine. Will be returning soon!

Course is in great shape considering the amount of rain

I have played at Eagle Creek many times over the last 30 years. I am grateful it is still open. The course was very wet since we have had a lot of rain lately. All in all the course is in pretty good shape a few suspect greens that have mowing or cart damage. Please get better help in the clubhouse and never let a six-some and five-some play in front of me again. If they do and you ask them to leave and they refuse. Kick them off your course!!!!
