Crane's Landing at the Lincolnshire Marriott Resort
Rating Snapshot
About
Crane's Landing Golf Club is the centerpiece of Lincolnshire Marriott Resort. Designed by George Fazio, the course winds across 110 acres of preserved woodlands. It is a certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary that offers stunning views of the Des Plaines River nearby. At just over 6,300 yards, the golf course is not particularly lengthy but it still offers some formidable challenges. Water is a prominent feature of the course with ponds and a winding river coming into play on 12 holes. The greens are small and raised and the sculpted fairways are tightly lined with mature trees, demanding accuracy off the tee. Crane's Landing Golf Club's back nine is especially difficult thanks to the river, which runs along the entire left side of the 13th hole and also appears on no. 17, the course's longest hole.

Water will come into play
For $25 through golfnow, this was a decent course. You wouldn't expect it, but water comes into play almost every hole. Course was wide open midday Friday.
Course in good shape
The course was in good shape. We went off the back nine to get some through a little quicker. Pace was good.
Everything was great but the ranger
Course conditions were great and the staff was helpful and attentive. Would have been a five star experience had there not been a craggy old ranger constantly riding up and down the cart paths on the holes we were playing and stopping next to our carts while we were reding off. He wouldn't say anything but just hovered around all the time. The course was playing slow that day because half the holes were cart path only and we were a foursome but at no time did the group behind us have to wait for a shot. We were at least a full hole ahead all the time. The twosome ahead of us was gone but we were a foursome. I just can't see the need to
Great staff
Course was a little rough, but it was early in the season and our weather had been wet. Greens were slow and inconsistent. With that being said, overall experience was good. Staff was very friendly.
Course with in good condition, considering all the rain and cart path only
Friendly staff and very green conditions
Would recommend to others
Fall Golf
Course was in good condition for fall season. GPS on carts was very easy to use and had great options to choose from. Very different course play from front 9 to back 9 based on distance on mid level tee boxes. Beverage specials from club house were VERY expensive and not much of a deal. Was an enjoyable fall afternoon on course
great value
If you keep the ball in the middle of the fareway you'll do fine. Keep you eye out for the water.
Nice resort course at a good price from Golfnow
Played here with my wife, a beginner golfer. It's a rather short course (6290 yds from the tips) but still has some challenge and some nice scenery. It was also good for the wife as she could play from the red tees which was 3641 yds, an appropriate distance for her skill level.
Pace of play was not a factor with autumn golf meaning a rather sparse population of golfers, but the previous time I had played here it was a bit slow (though that was a few years ago so they may have improved). We played in about 3:45.
The greens were not overly fast or tricky, course conditions were overall pretty good from tee to green. A couple of neat bridges that were covered by old rail cars. One of the best cart GPS systems I've used. Nice locker room facilities and a friendly, helpful staff. A decent course that the wife will want to play again, especially on a hot deal from Golfnow.
Well maintained...quick greens..
From the blue tees (6300) front and back nine are night and day..average 340 yard holes on front, but 430+ holes on back....
bad greens
short tight course, greens were fast but bumpy, a lot of undulation ,pins were set on crowns one man in our group six putted you want people to come back be a little more user friendly
the course is well groomed
the course is very well maintained, the greens are in good shape and the fairways are pretty narrow
Overrated preception
Because of the location and such you'd expect a lot more imo for the hype that comes with it. Very short course, I think sub 6,400 from the tips. I get that it was the fall and there usually is a little work going on, but disappointed in some of the rough shape of things would be putting it lightly. Then at the turn just before we hit the 10th hole (was on pace for a 3.5 hour round because it was empty) the put the worlds slowest foursome in right in front of us. We played about a 1.75 hour front and a 2.75 hour back. If this was a $40 summer course then I'd say you're getting what you deserve, but knowing the price for what it is with the distance, layout and lack of challenge. I'd say it's not as good as people think before they play it. Now that I've played it people are coming out of the wood work saying oh yeah I could have told you that about that course. Is it "bad" no, but it's not a good course for a avid golfer.
Tight fairways but playable
First time here. Considering the tough summer heat, the course was in good shape. Greens above average. Stay in the fairway, lots of trees and deep rough.
unkind & rude staffs
Staffs act like army, feeling of commanding their rules with attitude instead of genuine manner. Complained to the manager but no difference.
Good Value
The day was good. The majority of the staff were very nice. They did have a starter that was extremely unfriendly and simply rude. Other than that the course was in pretty good shape and the food was pretty good as well.
