Great Country Club Feel

I’ve played Ravisloe for many years. The staff is personal and attentive . The course is always in great condition. This Donald Ross course is wonderful to play. The whole ambiance is a country club feel at a public course setting.

Too Much Landscapers

We enjoy this course, no real complaints. Although the one thing that was really bothersome were the landscape crew. Seemingly every hole we approached they were blowing leaves, doing what they do, etc. But every hole it seemed like these dudes were following us, it seemed to be done on purpose. In face a couple times we are getting ready to hit a putt they'd fire up the blowers, I actually screamed at one guy to stop! Never had to deal with this crap before. If you want to be a upscale course have your ENTIRE staff behave accordingly.

November review

Classic Donald Ross design. Back to front sloped greens, mounds abound along with the deep bunkers. So much fun to play. Very walkable. Best public course in the Chicago area.

Poor conditions

It started with booking online with a cart only to find out when I got there that no carts we allowed. Then the range is closed. The starter is looking for us 15 mins before our tee time telling us we are on the tee. The whole course was a marshy swamp. Some holes were under water. We paid $55 to walk and with the condition of the course it wasn’t worth $25.
