Play Black
For a (usually) quick 9 holes go play Black. Three are challenging holes throughout the course. Sometimes play is slow on the weekends but that’s the way it is on a lot of mini courses!

Haven’t played in 30ish years, way better that I remembered
Last time I played here was in the mid 90s. And old school Chicago “muni”, welcome mat tees, no sand in the bunkers and literal trash in the rough. No real difference between the fairway and the collar/rough/collar.
This was a great experience and the course was a lot of fun.

Pure
For the price, there’s no better track within 30 miles. I had no expectations but for $14… the track was pristine. Challenging course but forgiving and unique.
