Very slow, but it's golf.

I have played here a lot. The course itself is always in pretty good shape. Only downfall is you will be waiting just about every shot. Even when it doesn't seem very crowded.

I will be back!

Loved this course. As many reviews state it’s a good course for people newer to the sport like me. There was a good mix of open fairways and obstacles to navigate. Course was in good condition and pace of play was fine. I’ll definitely be back!

Good course for confidence building

The course is forgiving. Mis-hits will not get you in too much trouble. Good for early season play or when your game needs some confidence building. Played within 4 hours. Staff is really friendly. Only negative is seeing the beverage cart on the 18-hole.

Great condition

I played Indian Boundary on Saturday 05.28.22. The course was in great shape. Staff super friendly. Indian Boundary is a pretty easy course. Water comes into play less than 5 holes. No driving range. This is my go to course at the beginning of the golf season as the cost is reasonable and it helps me get my swing back into tune.

worst golf experience in america

this is not only the worst course in chicago and the surrounding burbs, but it might be the worst place to play golf (aka spend your money) anywhere. scott, the manager....cannot treat his customers any worse. youre welcome for the thousands of dollars i have put in your pocket scott, years from now, when youre locking up at dollar general, youll be thinking to yourself, "maybe i shouldve beeen nicer"

Nice course slow play

Indian boundary is a nice course with wide fair ways and good greens a fun time just slow play. I usually only go here during bad weather due to the slow play they just need to space out tee times

Indian Boundary in Great Shape

Indian Boundary is in great shape, the greens roll well, the bunkers are dry, the rough is full, the fairways are well mowed. The course superintendent deserves a raise. The pace of play walking at 7.10a fit me well. Well Done!

Cart rates $20, but a good course to improve your game.

Great course to play. Due to Covid prices are high.

But course is good to play.

They do up your game by putting you in a foursome. It challenges you to play better.. will return. Will walk to save $20.

Close-to-Home course that I enjoy

While this course would likely be considered easy (116 slope from the back tees), you still have to hit the ball well, chip well, and putt well to get a good score.

In many ways, it's an excellent way to work on a part of your game you need to improve.

It can get clogged on weekends, but I've enjoyed playing here for the most part.

Too slow of a pace

pace was too slow with old folks taking their time and just playing really slow. We were waiting at least 10 minute on just about all 18 holes.
