Nicely wooded old style course

Played on a humid Friday afternoon and having played here before know what to expect. With all the recent rain, the course was very green and lush. The bunkers were hard enough that I chipped out of a couple rather than blasted. The greens were a little slow but in good condition. This park district course has lots of trees and some water hazards and no home intruding on the boundaries. My only complaint would the the limited choice of tee boxes - 6,800 from the tips, 6,500 from the middle tees, and 5,830 from the close (ladies?) tees which we played and was plenty long for our group. They need another set between 6,000 - 6,200 yds, and a shorter set for woman.

They have a decent driving range, a chipping green, and a putting green to warm up.

Nice course. Greens need some love

I really enjoy this course. I’ve only played it twice but it’s a good course to score on. I noticed a lot of ball marks on the greens that could be repaired. Perhaps they can have one of the workers pick a few greens each day and start fixing them? It will make them much smoother and more fun to play.

Nice course, played many times

I like the course but the pace of play on 7/14 was terrible. I quit after playing 5 holes! Never did that in over 50 years of golfing. I know this is not a problem the golf course can always control. Otherwise, they do a nice job here.
