not worth it
Course is in need of upkeep. Greens were good but the rest of the course is bad. Weeds in traps and not near enough sand. fairway grass was very poor.
Hidden gem
Love this course. I have been playing here for a few years. Summer mornings are beautiful with the sun rising and the river winding throughout the course.
A Good First Impression
First time playing this course and it was a very enjoyable day. Course was in good condition and the greens were in good shape. Pace of play was excellent with no backups.
Getting better and better
The course is better better and better shape. Staff is friendly and helpful. Best course around for the value. If I lived in Dekalb I would be a member, keep up the good work!
Keep up the great work!
They have been putting in alot of work on revamping the irrigation system, and it has helped with drainage tremendously! There was a few times I played in years prior after a good rain, the back 9 showed it with standing water in a few of the fairways. Seems to be a problem of the past! The greens this year have been absolutely immaculate! Great course! Friendly staff! Plenty of challenges, but can be a fairly friendly course at the same time! Keep up the great work all around!
Getting better despite dry conditions
This course was a disaster a few years ago. They have put in new cart paths and anew watering system. Greens are in great shape and despite the dry conditions course is in pretty decent condition. I highly recommend you play this course and reward them for all their efforts to improve the course.

Course is looking good
Lots of improvements going on so certain holes are rough
Really looking forward to how much nicer it will be with the work happening
Fun Local Course
Great for a nearby course with 18 holes. A little long to walk in my opinion, but nice variety. Also grass is nice and thick which means keep a close eye on your ball so you don't lose it.
Nice course
Out here for work and to be able to play an 18 for $22 including is fantastic! Greens may be very tricky for some higher handicap golfers, but they roll out pure and you can get a decent amount of spin on short irons and wedge shots. I’m a 5.5 handicap and enjoyed the difficulty it provides for all levels depending on tee box used! Recommend and will be returning before I leave here!
Best value for the money
Nice layout greens are always in good shape. Best value for the money in Chicagoland and only 20 minutes from the Orchard exit on 88
Worth A Visit
Cool day, so not many there. Walked 18 holes in under 3 hours. Course was in good condition, except greens had recently been plugged. Will return.
