Probably my favorite course

I'm pretty new to playing golf here in Chicago. this course is my favorite by far, the tees, the greens, the whole course in general is a fun one, played alone and with friends, this course is a great starter and for anyone. coming back here multiple times and still love it as much as the first time.

Fair Course

No bunkers and only 2 holes with water hazards so a pretty wide open and forgiving track. Fairways and greens in good shape. There’s also no starter here which is odd so people just figure out what group they are with…

Dirty course.

Other than geese crap and twigs everywhere, it was great playing in February. How about cleaning up the course somewhat !

Thanks for coming to play during an early exit from winter, great to have golfers in Feb! We're starting our spring agronomy and cleanup regimen earlier than expected. Come see us again soon!
