Not worth it.

$77 for a weekend round…not worth it. Made me wonder what I was paying for. Old carts, average fairways, no bunkers, sub par cart paths. Mind you people were crammed on take course like Pringles. Not worth it at all.

Beautiful gem close to Chicago!

This course was surprising. The club house, grounds and cart paths are dated and in need of serious repair and upgrade but the course is very nice. The staff were nice and helpful also. There were some very unsavory players we ran into that were jumping around the course but hopefully an anamoly.

Need a Full-time Starter

Please don’t charge $75 / round and now have a full-time starter. We played late morning last Sunday and there was no starter out there for the 45 mins we warmed up and then teed off. I didn’t think much of it until we had to wait for 10 mins to tee off on the second hole and that then carried forward through the entire round. Definitely due to groups aggressively going off first tee before their tee time and everything backing up.

Love the course, love the staff, but please don’t charge us $75/round for this kind of experience.

Not too shabby!

Pros: Good layout. Elevated tees are nice. Fun short par 4s.

Cons: Tee boxes need work. Drainage isn't good. Course can get sloppy. Pace of play can easily get to 5 hours.

Closed

Waiting for refund.

Course was closed.

Golf course said they notified GN, so they don't know why they let me book.

How do I get my refund, golf now?

I tried calling and got caught up in a circle of automated nonsense.

Booked a round

Course called and said they are closed from weather. We don't know why golf now let you book because we called them.

Tried to cancel but less than an hour from tee time so couldn't.

Called golfnow and can't get a real person on phone and you kept sending me in circles of no help.

Cmon man.

Where is my refund?????

Too many people

No one playing this course is a professional… this is not a country club. The times NEED to be more spread out! Tee times separated by just 8 minutes is a joke. Nearly $60 play here and it was never worth it. You’re either waiting for every shot or getting rushed and there is no in between. Im a mid-low handicap and my pace of play is never an issue yet im being rushed on this course so they can push as many people through as quickly as they can to make as much money as they can. Its pathetic. Instead of ensuring a nice experience and making sure their customers are happy… once they have your money, they don't care. Very sad because this is a nice course with a nice layout but i never felt welcomed on the course from the first hole on. I wont be back till they change the times.

Course crowdedness

They let way too many people out too quickly. Caused course to be extremely over crowded. Waiting 15 min between each hole.

Great Players Course

Player friendly layout with enough hazards to encourage a little thought but enough space to allow even 20+ handicappers to avoid big mistakes if they’re careful. Well maintained course and pleasant round!

4:45 hrs to play 18 on a Monday at 10:00

Challenging course with lots of hills but didn’t care for the cart paths running through the fairways and pace of play was poor.
