Mr

Superintendent needs a gold medal. This place is in incredible condition. Thanks for all the hard work. Maybe you can open a kitchen for relaxing afterwards.

Rejuvenation

This course was garbage 3 years ago. They have clearly spent money to better the conditions of the tee boxes and greens. The fairway and first cut could be cut lower or more frequently but the course is challenging for beginners and GIR golfers

Welcome Back Hickory Hills CC

I don’t know what ownership spent to rejuvenate Hickory Hills CC, but it was worth it. Congrats on a great job. Greens outstanding, fairways good and look to soon be even better, tee box solid.

Thank you to all that cared enough about an old school golf club to make it even better than those good old days.

There are mountains and hills that are hard to see in Illinois, so it was a very new and pleasant round.

Improved!

I have always enjoyed playing HH as it is so different when compared to most northern Illinois courses, but I really think the grounds crew has done an excellent job.
