Beautiful Course - Relatively Challenging

The layout of this course is not overly challenging. HOWEVER, even if you’re not playing the back tees, this course is pretty long. Some of the par 4s are very difficult to reach in 2. I hit my driver 260-280 on average, with a few reaching into the 290-310 range. The course itself is beautiful, very up and down. It’s very good exercise if you’re walking. It is extremely well maintained, and all the staff was pretty friendly. Overall, it was a great experience playing there and I will definitely be back.

clubhouse better and the food offered was good too.

the play was steady and the course a challenge,

friendly staff.

A Pleasure to play well worth the drive

This was our first time to play Tuckaway, what a real hidden gem of a course. The hills were challenging, green small but in great condition. We live near Ohare, most the courses near us are quite flat, Tuckaway is not, very scenic, We tee's off at noon, a lot of course get tied up with groups that are more interested in drinking and having fun, than playing golf on nice afternoons, not here everyone, staff, golfers were there to enjoy the game of golf, sure people having beers but no one staggering etc :)

Good course with plenty of elevation changes and good layout. Not manicured conditions but good. I finished in 2:25, thanks to 2 groups who let me play through. Great value for the money.

can’t wait to play it again

The course was in great shape. The staff was very friendly and helpful. First time playing there, the starter was great help telling us about the course and how to play it. It’s a shorter course but the challenge was the smaller size greens. That made for good shot making. Loved it would play it again.
