South Suburban Gem

Played here back in the 70’s as a young caddie and it still as beautiful now as it was then. Super friendly staff. Good value for the money.

Teeing it up again next week. Will be here many more times this summer.

Great course

I am one in a group of four guys that have been playing this course every Wednesday for about eight years now. There is a reason we play every Wednesday. The staff is great, the course is fantastic. Was a private course for about 100 years, Donald Ross design, and it shows. Not too long, but not too short. Walkable if you want. A great experience.

Ravisloe review

Always enjoy the layout at Ravisloe…haven’t played here in years…it’s a beautiful place but was quite disappointed in condition of tee boxes and pace of play was absolutely brutal…could not get in rhythm….not sure if tee times are set up too close together or what but our group was waiting on literally every shot…a few holes like that would be fine but not the entire round…very disappointing

First Time Playing

Excellent course

Played the course in mid April and you would’ve thought it was mid June.

Course was in great shape considering they got a ton of rain the week before, course was walking only which was somewhat difficult considering the softer conditions and elevation changes on some of the holes.

But the clubhouse was absolutely insane and I’m sure the amenities when the course is operating at full capacity are insane too but the range and kitchen were closed when I played.

Good course excellent staff

We ( a twosome ) were a little early and they got us out before a foursome so our round was less than 3 hours. The course is in spring shape gredd we nd were fast and did not hold. The staff was really friendly helpful and fun.

Ravisloe is always a great course to play. Wish the early year greens fee was the same for the entire year! Fun as always. Thank you
