South side gem

As usual, the course was in good shape. Clubhouse was clean. Staff was friendly and polite. Mark Haines has always done a good job on the upkeep of the course. Never disappointed when I play there.

Lincoln Oaks

Moderately priced course that offers good variety of holes. It has rolling hills, but is pretty open with not a ton of trees, so it is a forgiving course. We played on a day that started out pretty cold, so there was not alot of people out, the the pace of play was great. I guess my biggest complaint there were the amenities. Although they have an indoor bar and some tables and chairs, for some reason they have closed their indoor grill for the year, so I couldn't so much as a hot dog, which makes no sense to me. Other than that, it is a good value for the money.
