Slow play!
Greens were slow and sandy.
THEY SHOULD MENTION THAT WHEN TAKING TEE TIME RESERVATIONS!
Limited sand in bunkers.
Slow play even for a Sunday!
Thank you for your review, and I'm sorry we were not clear about the status of our aerification. Please feel free to contact our GM at info.higlandwoods@forestpreservegolf.com . We look forward to hearing from you.
Wait a couple weeks
Greens being aerated (front 9 last week back nine today). sand on greens makes it like you’re putting on the beach. I’ve played here before and it was real nice. I would say wait 7 to 14 days before playing. Hope it will get better by then
Thank you for your review, and I'm sorry we were not clear about the status of our aerification. We look forward to seeing you again sometime soon.
Soupy and aerated
They must have watered a ton the night before we played. Some of the tees were like casual water. The greens were aerated and a mess. But it’s September and for $35.00 to walk it’s acceptable. I like the layout and it’s close to home so I’ll be back
Thank you for your review, and I'm sorry we were not clear about the status of our aerification. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Thank you for your positive rating! We’re thrilled to hear you had a positive experience and can't wait to have you back again sometime soon.
One of two best public park cook county golf courses
Incredible, challenging course. Long course that is well maintained and a joy to play.
Thank you for your positive rating! We’re thrilled to hear you had a positive experience and can't wait to have you back again sometime soon.
Should have been closed
The back nine were closed to the public today and the front nine greens were full of sand . You could not putt the ball without it bouncing around. The course should have been closed. It was a waste of time and money today. Other than this experience the course has been great.
Good course
Course was great, the pace was a little slow for an early morning tee time.
A Pleasant Experience at Highland Woods
I had a wonderful time at this course. The staff was super friendly and understanding. They wanted to make sure I was satisfied with my experience. The course is a nice layout. It provides the player plenty of room to blast long drives down wide fairways and big greens. My only complaint was that there was no beverage cart and no water jugs on the course. I know these are covid times, but it was a heat index of close to 100 degrees. Something to address. Other than that, I thank you Highland Woods!
Best staff in the county
Pro shop girls were welcoming and informative. I’ve brought many members from my club to this course and they’re always impressed. Hard to find a course where the starter and Marshall aren’t the absolute worst to deal with.
Great course
Beautiful course, driving range, very friendly accommodating staff, love this place!! My golf cart stopped running on the 12th hole and they sent someone out to switch it very quickly. Much appreciated!
Need to speed it up
There need to be a new shorter tee box for the ladies. We're held up by a 4 some of ladies playing 1 tee in front of the whites.
to crowdy
after 3 hours and 10 minutes i skiiped because we made only 11 holes
it is way to crowdy and this is not a first time
Waste o time and money
Ok
Decent course, hard enough - but, pace of play was abysmal. Took over 5 hours to get the 18 in. Terribly grouped 4 somes in front. You had carts just waiting and waiting on several holes.
Pace your tee times and get rangers out there to facilitate pace of play.
Long, Open Course
Highland is a long, open course which makes your 1st few hits down the fairway feel great. The course compensates for this by throwing a ton of sand traps on your way to the green. I myself had quite the beach day. Would definitely try this course again!
Thank you so much for your review! We are happy to see you enjoyed our course. We value your feedback, and hope to see you back in the future.
