Secret gem in Northern Lake County

First off it was a great morning for golf on Sunday 5/22/22. Laura and crew were up early making sure everything was ready for the early crowd. Clean carts, groomed fairways, watered greens and a friendly yet attentive ranger made for a great round of golf.

Perfect Neighborhood Course

We live close to Fox Lake Country Club so makes it easy to hop on the course. Nice course layout, most holes are a little tight, lots of mature trees. My only complaint are the greens and surrounding rough. The greens including the putting green (which is very small) could use a little maintenance.

We will go back - as it is a perfect neighborhood course.

Worth it for the drive

Although it’s about an hour from Chicago, I think taking a drive out here is worth it. The elevation changes were a great experience which is different than a lot of Illinois courses. It just rained hard the day before and the course was actually more dry than I expected. The only con was the amount of worms on the greens. I’ve never seen so many live worms on greens but they were still rolling true and weren’t that slow even with the rain. I’ll be back here for sure in the summer.

Surprise gem up north!

Really enjoyed playing here for the first time. Many elevation changes and the greens were fairly quick. All in all a very interesting course to play and one I will come back to.

Fall Sunday

Course was in good shape and not very busy.

Still didn't get in all 18 holes by sunset with a 1:40 Tee time. Golf Now and course should offer twilight rates somewhere between the 9 and 18 hole rate when afternoon tee times make mid and high handicap golfers unlikely to finish.

Bathroom looked very clean but did not smell clean
