My Review
I was very surprised how nice the greens were as I used to play this course several years ago when my Dad was alive and stopped playing it due to the conditions being very poor years ago. I will for sure go back to play as I love greens that are in good condition. I will the fairways and tee boxes were cut a little lower.
Great deal!
The course was challenging. The greens were very good on the day I played. The fairways need lots of improvement...still have wild grass with white flowers which makes it hard to find your ball. The pace of play was excellent.
Small Greens
This course has some of the smallest greens in the region. Excellent value, it's been nearl 10 years since I last played here and forgot that there are some really nice holes, especially the par5's. The only real negative I have was that some of the tee boxes were uneven and offer some awkward stances when teeing off.
Course was in good shape. Having 3 9's is a really good feature.
This course was great for the money. One of the greens was in bad shape, but I will for sure play this course again.
It is what it is
Its Cardinal Creek. If you have 3 hours to sneak in a round for $20 its fine. Dont expect anything more than that
Not kept up
It was a beautiful day out and not many people were on the course, so that was very good. You'd think that with no one being on the course, that you'd be able to have a fast pace, WRONG! Finding your ball was extremely difficult due to very high grass conditions. If you were not dead in the middle of the fairway, you were spending time trying to find each and every ball. Even when it was in the middle it was difficult to find still. The sand traps were very hard and not kept up with. The price was good, but was not happy with the conditions.
Cardinal Creek - Beecher, IL
Overall the course has a nice lay out, nice club house, and friendly staff but right now the greens ( and I do mean ALL the greens ) are in tragic shape. When your ball drops down on to the greens SAND kicks up and you leave NO ball mark. Plus when you walk up they look like patio paver bricks instead of grass.
I play this course often and have never seen their greens (or any anywhere for that matter) in such unplayable shape. It was impossible to drain a putt beyond 3 feet.
Great place to play!
This is a great course. It's easy to get to, the staff is very friendly, and the course is laid out nicely for the pace of play. All three 9-hole courses are very nice, my favorites are center and south. Rates are very reasonable. Give this course a try, you won't be disappointed!
Greens
I've played this course over the years and yesterday was first round of the year and the course was in good shape the greens were quick and nice.
Great Early Season Condition
We played on the first warm day there's been for the last2-3 weeks and were very pleased with the condition of the course. They obviously have been out there working on their spring cleanup and mowing so the fairway and greens were pretty good. The staff was very helpful I think they appreciated our business. If you haven't played here consider giving them a try.
Play this course
The greens were a little shaggy but it has rained a lot the past week so i wouldn't hold that against. A nice course that deserves more patronage
Great Course
Cardinal Creek has come along way since the previous owners. New owners have brought life back to this gem in Beecher. Staff is very friendly and I would highly recommend this golf course to anyone of my friends, family, and colleagues.
