Unbelievable
Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice shame on you. Course manager has no customer service etiquette. If it’s Pouring down rain BEFORE we tee off, usually a course would offer a rain check or a refund. Not the case here, he told my foursome we should have rain suits! Two of which were ladies. The course was empty and I couldn’t get a refund or a rain check. Never teed off and lost all funds for our foursome. Unbelievable.
Much improved!
Played this course a lot growing up because it was the cheapest option around. Now, it’s not only a cheaper option but the course has really improved! We’ll cut and maintained. Great job!
Possibly better than ever
Grew up on south side. Played Burnam Woods as a kid and high schooler 45 years ago. Another friend and I went back to play Burnam and George Dunne. Both courses were in great shape. Burnam has very small greens, but they were fast and true. Tee boxes and fairways were cut well and played quick. We had an 8:20 tee time and were one of the first groups off. Played in 2 hours and 50 minutes.
This is one of the original Forest Preserve courses. No bells and whistles but 18 tree lined holes of golf with small greens. If you’re learning or teaching someone to golf, this is a great place to start. Workers were all working hard and very friendly. It was good to see they have taken good care of an old friend!
This course needs lots of attention.
I live in the neighborhood & been coming here for the last 15 years & never have I seen it this bad! Course has overgrown grass & clippings everywhere, overgrown tree brush, bad dips throughout course.
There's is so much POTENTIAL at this course with simple TLC.
It definitely is not worth the $35 golf fee Forest preserve is charging. I guarantee you a little TLC goes long way for more customers to spread the word & come back.
Much better then last year
Course was in much better shape then past years. Enjoyed the clean lies in the fairways.
Course is in great shape!
Golf course was in great shape so early in the season. Kudos to the GM and staff!
Need some help
Fairways like fields, I play other forest preserve courses and I wouldn’t go back to this one.
