Vernon Hills Golf Course

Played just prior to a storm rolling in. Pace of play was good, probably because everyone out there was doing the same thing. Course was in good condition.

Nice, 9 hole course with reasonable challenge for beginning golfers.

Beware of lots of ticks around the rough

Round was good. Course was in good shape. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The only issue was that I made the reservation with a cart included but when we arrived at the course they had no carts. The course was open for walking only. We walked it anyway.

Excellent 9 hole course. Played in late fall so the greens were excessively hard. Good layout for this yardage.

9 holes for almost $40 in late September is a little ridiculous, but I knew what to expect having played there several times. Fairways and greens were in good shape, but pretty rough in the rough and around the greens. Just par 3s and 4s fyi.

Title says it all. Fairways were barely trimmed, greens had weird fluff spots on them from being missed when mowed. Pace of play was not good and no sign of ranger to keep people going. Probably first and last time I play here.

Had a 6:10 tee time, trying to get 9 holes in before sundown. There was a group of 2 older ladies and one gentleman. Took them about 15-20 min a hole. They were never waiting due to a group in front of them. Every time they hit, they’d spend 5-7 minutes looking for the ball. I’m not a good golfer by any stretch of the imagination, so if I’m double and triple bogeying every hole and I’m still on your heels, you’re playing too slow lol. Someone did come out and tell them to pick up the pace, but they still played the same speed.

Can’t beat the price! Staff are some of the nicest around.
