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.

Quiet but windy
Overall you get what you pay for. We paid $30 for 9 holes with a cart. Overall the course was in the kind of shape you’d expect for early in the season. Greens were of wonderful. We pretty much had the place to ourselves.
Young lady who appeared to be the only person working was great. She was pleasant and helpful.
Getting better
I’ve played this course periodically over the past 40 years. In the past it was good but after years of flooding from the DP river it got really bad.
But they have turned the corner. They are getting better and the course is more playable than it has been in recent years. They typically have good deals and the course is not overbooked.
I hadn’t played it in years and I just played it for the second time this March.
Right now it’s a little rough from the winter but it looks like it’s bouncing back well.
I intend to play it again soon.
Don’t.
Course was in horrible shape. I’ve seen Edgebrook after a storm in better condition. Not to mention getting hit into multiple times and staff doing nothing about it
Opening Day
It was opening Day. The tee boxes and fairways were ok. The greens were too hard and ball bounced more than it rolled. Hopefully it will improve as it warms up.
BAD
It is criminal how much they charge to play at this course. Greens and tee boxes are so beat up and the fairways are patchy.
Horrible shape
I play a lot of golf. This was my 346th round this year. This course was by far, the worst conditions on any course I’ve played in years. The tee boxes and greens were torn up and the fairways were horrible. I was shocked based on the fact that it’s a Marriott course which I consider to be a quality hotel chain. My wife and playing partner felt the same way. We will not be returning, even if the round was free.
Greens were patchy and inconsistent, fairways were also inconsistent, some where spongey and others were rock hard.
Needs TLC
I have played this course a handful of times over the last year. Unfortunately, the conditions continue to deteriorate. Grounds are very hard, tee boxes are not managed or backfilled and the greens are almost bare on some holes. This really could be a nice course if there was some effort to maintain it correctly. Having said that, you get what pay for, which is why they continue offering groupons to generate business.
