Great course to got your game together and it was in pretty nice shape.
Course Conditions Disappointing
Most of the grass was green, but on some holes it was hard to tell the fairway from the rough. The greens were in great shape, the fairways not so much. The tee boxes are the worst. You have a choice of hitting of of a at on a concrete slab or a grass tee further forward. Many of the grass tees are in poor condition, with lots of bare spots and uneven surfaces. This is a good place for practice, but the course conditions leave a lot to desire.
Quirky
Positives: Greens were nice. Pretty setting in forest preserve.
Negatives: Not for the serious golfers. From the back tees, you tee off from maps. Ground very hard. Many par 4s under 300 yards.
Would be good for kids or new golfers learning the game.
Nice little course
This course was great for my confidence. I enjoyed the condition of the course and the play wasn't back up. Very fun short and clean.
2nd time at Edgebrook.
Good course to get you ready for other big courses.
Simple course slower play
A short 4,500 yard course without par 5’s built by the railroad men in 1910. It’s has two long Par 3’s hole number 2 and 6 both at 230 yards from the Mat but from the grass tees they play 200yards.
Yes many holes have a mat or grass tee. It’s a good course for people learning the game.
Also it’s located in Edgebrook so they do not sell alcohol so you may bring your own.
Come prepared.
There was no alcohol in the shop… there’s really no turn around point where you can swing by for more water/snacks.
You have to hit off a mat a few times which is horrible. Plant some more trees and get this course in better shape!
Yes I will play it again!
Not a great place to play
The starter talked and joked while in your backswing. Forced you to tee off even if you could hit past the group in front of you.
This caused a major backup in pace of play and it was LITERALLY the fault of the starter. He may have been on the spectrum so I didn’t want to complain.
There is virtually no way to tee the ball up on the mats you have to hit off
Tough Tee Boxes
Some of the tee boxes are really in poor shape, to the point where you literally need to be creative in where you hit from. Rest of the course is in decent shape.
