Fun Course

Another warm sunny day in December.! IB was packed, Pace was good until final 6 holes. Foursome in front of us was brutally slow, no regard for other golfers. Not IB fault, every other round pace has been good. Staff is friendly and helpful. Overall a good experience and round.

This course will tell you exactly how good you are. It’s challenging without the difficulty. I was happy to see the pace kept up and the grounds were beautiful. I’m told fall conditions are far better than summer. And, yes, this place gets busy.

Best Preserve course.

This is probably the best forest preserve course in the Chicago area. The course is in great shape and just challenging enough.
