Comfortable play

Not terribly challenging yet a nice layout.. Landscapers were especially courteous and did a great job at clearing leaves during the autumn season. Well manicured course. Really enjoyed it.

Great design

First time playing here, course was in great condition, greens were rolling smooth, fairways could use some help in a couple of spots. But expected playing this time of year. Got stuck behind 2 foursomes and slowed pace down, otherwise would have been 4 hr round or less

Hybrid Tees Not as Advertised

For some reason the grey hybrid tees were moved back on a number of holes making the course far too long for a senior golfer like me. The advertised length for the hybrid tees is much short then the actual length. For example, one of the par 3s was playing 220 yards!

Need to invest in course upkeep

This is a classic layout - for good and bad. Price point does not make sense for current course condition. Lots of bare spots, greens in relatively bad shape, and lots of crabgrass on tees. We understand that this WAS a private course, please don’t fall into the trap of resting on your reputation, put some of the $$ back into the course.

Playing Ravisloe

Course was in excellent condition overall. If you like sand this is the place for you! Tees were ok, greens were fairly fast and the fairways and ruff were in good shape. Pace was alright but no rangers were spotted. 2 water stations and no cart girl.

Disappointed in golf pass

I had to pay in advance to reserve a tee time. I thought that once I checked in I would be charged the senior rate. The golf pro couldn’t make an adjustment. I was overcharged.

Great Course and Great Value

Great condition, challenging but fair. And reasonably priced compared to how expensive public courses in Chicagoland have become. I will definitely be back.

Donald Ross Gem

My playing partner and I enjoyed the course very much. The greens need a little work as the ball marks were a bit out of control. The bunkers and rough were in excellent shape which kept the level of difficulty elevated. The ranger needs to keep the players on pace when they fall behind which caused our round to go from 4.25 hours to 4.75 hours.
