Interesting Course on the South Side

Very well manicured greens and fairways. Many greens are quite small with a few substantially larger. Most have a good deal of slope from back to front. If they were mowed closely things could be tough. The rough was not terribly long, but it was heavy and most fairways are narrow. The layout is very unconventional: the front nine contains 4 par fives, 2 par fours and 3 par threes while the back only has one par five (the longest is 550). Do be careful on number 14 (the only par 5 on the back) from the tee you cannot see down into a depression that is fronted by a ridge. Because of this, you cannot see a pond on the left at about 250 yards from the back tees, nor can you see golfers who are down there. We were hit into by the group behind. There is an old school bell alongside the fairway that apparently you are supposed to ring when you're clear and it's safe for those on the tee to hit but no one in the pro shop mentioned the etiquette.

Nicest Course in the South Chicagoland Area. Price, Service and Condition

I have been playing Lincoln Oaks since 2000 because it is close to my home. New owners purchased course from Lincolnshire Country Club several years ago. Since then, the condition has improved to a "10". Beautiful fairways and greens. New sand in the traps this year and a owner that cares. Sometimes the course seems crowded, but every time I play the round moves along. Great staff and rangers make me feel like they care. Hardest par 3 s in the area. I never get bored with this course. Best Italian Sausage sandwich around.
