This course is a tough course.

Was golfing with a heart transplant recipient that I paid for two golfers with a cart. But I had a head cold so I asked if we could have a second cart so not to put the heart transplant person in risk and was charged an extra fee for the golf cart. Was told that’s the policy. If I could’ve canceled the tickets without losing my money, that’s what I would have done.

It's Golf

Just go and play there if you have never been. It's a decent course. Hole 11 is a little different, but if you play it right, it will be a nice par or better...maybe worse. Just go and play.

Great course!!

This time playing was very nice. The weather was perfect and the course played very well. The greens were 90% perfect except for 1 or 2 greens. Overal, this course is a hidden gem everyone should play.

Conditions and OverBooked

They need to do a better job taking care of the greens and tee boxes because they look absolutely atrocious right now. They overbook tee times, needs to be spread out 20 minutes apart in order to be realistic about pace of play.

Needs help

I have played this course several times over the last 2 years. This course is a hidden gem in Mchenry County. In my opinion, this course could potentially be the best course in McHenry County if they advertised more. It does look as though they don't have lot's of money to put into the course because it's a little run down. The club house is run down as well. It's really is a shame compared to other courses in the area how they staff this place. There are weeds growing in a bunkers while I seen the grounds crew screwing off. 4 of them to fill divit boxes on the tees? Not my place to ask the owners to put a little money into it. If I were a betting man, I would bet this will be up for sale in the next few years. It's a challenging course and I will be back.

Nice Course

Nice course! Hole 11 is odd but a good challenge. The tee boxes were very hard this time of year. It was difficult to get a tee in the ground. Shut up...I'm a strong guy! Just golf there.

Nice natural beauty and wildlife. Greens were pretty rough with a ton of ball marks. Several were tricky. Great value. Not crowded.
