PACE: There was a full Sunday tee sheet. Despite 10 minute intervals, we waited at least 5 minutes on every tee box.
CONDITIONS: For early October the course was fine. I do agree with the comments below regarding bunker quality. There's not a lot of sand in the bunkers, and they were not in the best shape.
Also, the greens are full of ball marks... repair your ball marks!
STAFF: Very friendly and helpful.
VALUE: Got a deal online, which seemed fair. Their full rate seems to be a bit high given the condition of the course.
LAYOUT: It's a Donald Ross design, so the layout is awesome. Also, IMO the Black (back) tees play further than the yardage on the scorecard. Do consider the hybrid tees.
Raving
This is an excellent course. It was finely cut and challenging. You can use all of your clubs.
Thanks so much for your wonderful review, u314163170282. We are thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your time with us. Please visit again soon. Thanks for choosing Ravisloe Country Club!
Bad value, slow & poorly maintained
The group in front of us was taking forever so we requested a ranger, but eventually had to also call the clubhouse to actually get a ranger out there. We were waiting 30 minutes at the turn because these guys were clueless and looking for balls. We had to pull our balls out of the bunkers because most of them were just dirt and unusable. The greens were in rough shape and needed to be rolled. There was no beverage cart either on the course, so we had to wait until the turn. It's absurd this place is $110 to play. Don't waste your money here, right down the road is Calumet Country Club for $30 less and more fun.
We apologize for the negative experience you had at our golf course. We appreciate your feedback and understand your frustrations with the pace of play, the condition of the bunkers and greens, and the lack of a beverage cart. We will take your comments into consideration and work towards improving these areas. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
WAY TOO PRICEY
Not sure what planet people are living on, but this course is not a $90+ course. $50? Sure. That's reasonable. Even the hot deals are absurd. I've played this course many times over the years for $35, and at that price, I'd play it multiple times a year. Whoever is in charge of the pricing needs to see a head doctor.
We appreciate your feedback and apologize if our pricing did not meet your expectations. We value our customers' opinions and we will take your comments into consideration. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
Best Public Golf Course
From the beautiful club house to friendly staff to beautifully maintained fairways and greens to decent bar menu, I think Ravisloe is the best public golf course anywhere (excluding resort courses).
I play public courses from CA to NY, Ravisloe quickly hit the top of my favorites list.
P.S. - stop by and say hello to the GM, super nice guy Steve.
Thanks so much for your wonderful review, JamesNYC. We are thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your time with us. Please visit again soon. Thanks for choosing Ravisloe Country Club!
Nostalgia
Amazing history and you can feel the course being 100+ years old. Very cool Donald Ross layout. But it needs some money and work out into it. You can tell slowly declining since it was public in 2009

Disappointing Course Conditions
Bunkers were hit or miss on having any amount of playable sand. Greens were pretty beat up from ball marks. Overall the ground was pretty hard and extremely difficult to get a club underneath anything not in the fairway.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced with our bunkers and greens. We appreciate your feedback and will strive to improve these areas in the future.
Nice day , but a five hour round was a disappointment

Played Ravisloe CC for the first time, and I'd have to say it lived up to the reviews. Given it's been around quite a while, the course more than stands up to its newer competitors with the beautiful tree-lined fairways and many well-placed bunkers. All in all, challenging but fair. The course and clubhouse have a cool historic vibe, and the staff was very friendly and informative about the course's history and layout. Will definitely play again, and certainly recommend to others.

Course needs money infusion
Have to be careful driving to clubhouse because you drive thru the 10th hole fairway…
Staff was great & so are golf carts with gps.
For the cost of a round I expected much better layout and condition of the course. Old ball cleaners and most didn’t have soap/water and towels where missing or half torn. Some bunkers had little sand.
Sadly it’s a 1 & done experience to golf at Ravisloe
We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any inconvenience you experienced while driving to the clubhouse. Thank you for your kind words about our staff and golf carts. We will take note of your comments regarding the course layout and condition to improve our facilities. Thank you for taking the time to review our business.

Pace of play was just way too slow. Tee’d off before 9am and was on the course almost 5 hours. For a relatively short course, should be around in 4 hours 15, MAX. Didn’t see a ranger the whole day.
Course was in okay shape. Greens were kind of beat up and at some point hope they are able to redo some of the areas around cart paths.
Otherwise, enjoy playing this track.

Yesterday I played Ravisloe CC a Donald Ross designed course (now public) in Homewood. After all the rain this week I thought fairways, traps and greens were in very good shape. Relative to previous years trend there is now in the right direction and I considered it well maintained. I am definitely going to do it again.
