Sporty course and a hidden gem
I haven't played the course in several years, but was enticed by an unbelievable Hot Deal. The only drawback is that there is no driving range, but our foursome stopped at Mill Creek's range which is on the way. This is a very interesting layout with elevation changes, lots or prairie grass and several water holes. It is very scenic (only a couple of holes with homes that do not come into play). The fairways are blue grass (instead of bent which is typical), but the course was in great shape and the greens were true. We finished in under 4 1/2 hours even after letting a twosome play through. We played the white tees at 6,208 yards, but even at that relatively short distance there are some very long par 4's and it was challenging. We had a great time and the 2 guys who hadn't played it before were both pleasantly surprised at the quality of the course for such a small green fee (including cart). This course is very walkable, since it's not spread out, but there are a couple of steep hills to climb on 9 and 18.
Great day of golf
I played with my son who is home from college for the summer The course was in great shape. More elevation changes than expected for the area. The course is fairly forgiving Great value.
great value
course in great shape,no goose droppings anywhere who do they do that?P ace could have been better,but we had fog.Overall can't beat the value and the staff. Hats off to the course superintendent,wonderful job.
Outstanding course for any level player
First time playing this course and it was really spectacular. Nice undulating terrain, some blind greens, narrow and wide fairways in great shape, it definitely plays long. Greens were in great condition, large and challenging. Wish some players took the time to fix their divots, but overall in great shape.
Enjoyed playing this course, beautiful and great value. Will come again soon.
Course was well maintained
Course in good condition considering the lack of rain. Not a real difficult course but have a few challenging holes.
fun course
Hughes Creek is a fun course to play! There are some nice elevation changes for some challenging shots. The course layout seems confusing with some zigzagging around on the back 9. but generous fairways for forgiving shots fun for all levels of players. Front nine doesn't drain well so don't expect much roll after a heavy rainfall. But looking forward to playing there again!
Worth it
Course was in good shape and was done in 4 hours. Worth the price and will play again in the future
Very Nice course at a reasonable price
Simply a nice kept secret out in Elburn. They have a great staff of people working there and the food is excellent!
Nice fairly straightforward track
First time at Hughes Creek - late season and was able to scoot around in 2.5 hours. Course was in decent condition and didn't notice any recent aeration marks on the greens. Nice challenging uphill finishers for each nine towards the clubhouse. Back nine plays very long with back to back 400 yard plus par 4's (12th & 13th) from the white tees. The par 4 16th was my favorite...some very interesting holes intermixed with what I'd term average flatland design. Enjoyable, playable and decently maintained.....just not a course that makes we want to play it all the time/everyday....a nice once a year adventure and I'll place it on the list of possible plays next summer. 3.5 stars in my book but the green fee must be $30 or less for me to consider.
Greens aeration
I wish we would have been told that the front nine greens were going to aerated and we had to play the back nine twice. I would have scheduled another day.
Great course
It was only our second time playing the course and definitely going back. Course is in great shape and everyone friendly. Very enjoyable day.
great Value
course is in excellent condition, lots of work going into tees and bunkers, should keep the course in great shape through the fall
Excellent Course.
This is my favorite course. It has wide fairways and excellent greens. It is hilly and has great views The staff and food are excellent. Great value for the money.
