Top Secret…Shhh

Amazing condition! This was my first time playing and I was blown away by the condition and course layout. It’s a true hidden gem, especially for the early birds looking to play at sunrise. Had a tee time for 6:50 and I was the only one on the course.

Decent Walking 9

Slow pace of play but it’s a learning course, greens are in good shape, walking rate is a good deal, blues play just over 3200 and is long enough

Your review is greatly appreciated! We're glad you enjoyed the greens; our Agronomy team works very hard to keep them alive and thriving. Thanks for understanding we are a public course open to all skill levels so pace may be slow here and there.

Hidden gem, wish it was 18!!!

I go here a lot. Great hidden gem, amazingly kept grounds, even in the fall. Se goose poop, but don't be a baby.

Sometimes the pace of play can get hairy, but normally not too bad. Kids golf free with an adult and I dig it. At one point in time we were all learning the game, give everyone that same chance. I go here with my wife since she's loves hitting from the juniors tee box. It's fun, without the stress of needing to go 300 yards.

Overall, A-, not much room for improvement

Average Course

For $21 to walk nine it is what it is. Tee boxes and some of the fairways are beat up but the greens were in good shape, especially for fall golf. Course layout varied enough. I would play again but only to walk 9

Decent country track

If your looking for a Chicago county course with a bit more distance, then this is a decent option. I played on a Saturday and the pace of play was 2.5 hours so don’t expect to fly through 9 but otherwise enjoyed the round.

Nice Yardage

The course as a whole is decent, deep cleaning of the Bird feces in the holes, needs to be done. Especially those close to the water, everyday. I’ve never seen any grounds crew out , cutting or picking up debris.
