Ravisloe Country Club

Great course. But a 5 hour round. Much fun to play.

Played a few days after a brief squall had gone through the area. The water still had not drained as drives were plugging and the areas around the green were a bit soggy. Other courses we had played in the area had none of these drainage issues.

You could tell the course was designed years before carts were invented as most tee boxes were right next to the previous green. Made for a very fast round (3 1/2 hours on a Sunday). The course design still holds up even after all these years, you have to play from the fairway or your approach is blocked off by trees and you have to be positioned on the correct side of the fairway if you don't want to be navigating bunkers. The greens were very sloped, putting from above the hole is not recommended!

Overall the course design was everything we expected, but for a semi-private course, the conditioning was a bit disappointing.

This place lacks in the service. You are no longer a country club. You need the public to want to come in and play. The public has numerous choices for great public golf. The course is average.

You won't find a more beautiful course that is open to the public in the Chicago area. Slow play is an issue here though.

This course is worth it even at $60..,but if you can get a GOLFNOW tate even better. The greens are challenging and kept well.

Great course.. Very fair but challenging.. Great value and wonderful condition.

The course is beautiful. You forget you're in Illinois during your round. Great layout with very challenging sand traps!

Ravisloe never disappoints. Great course with a challenging but fun layout. If you enjoy golf in a park-like setting woth old mature trees then try this course. One small complaint, and I find this everywhere, people need to repair their ball marks. I dont blame a course for this, but i fixed two to three per green. Also a great patio off the 18 green to enjoy food or drink after round.

we were four playing this course first time was worth a drive I will go there again

Always a fun play Ravisloe was in really good shape.....hardly anyone was there for our Wednesday early afternoon round. Country club experience. My only complaint is that the fairways were over watered so the course played very long. Ravisloe will host the IL Senior Amateur in September so expect the course to be well maintained the remainder of the season. This is track that's stood the test of time and will return again and again.

The pro sent off a 4 hole shotgun outing prior to our tee time. Same pro was rude when we asked about what was happening. Ends up 2.5 hrs to play the front, better on the back. Starter tried his best.

Too bad. Great course in great condition.

I guess good customer service only applies to outings...

Pace of play was terrible. It was great for 4 holes and we were told by the starter that only couple of singles were in front of us but as we approached the 4 th green a foursome showed up on the 5 th tee. We waited on every shot after that. We were told by workers that they were members and do what they want.

One of the best public courses I've played in the Chicagoland area. Great value. Course was in great condition. Not overly long, so it's easy to walk. It's a little tricky to get to from the city, so allow plenty of time.

The cart we were driving ran out of battery and we had to call to get another cart delaying things for a bit. Luckily the group behind us had a cart die too so it worked out. This shouldn't happen. Other than that it was great

I have been golfing at Ravisloe since it went public. I love this course layout and I just enjoy the overall facility. The people are great and the prices are very fair. I generally tee off very early, so the pace of play is sub 4 hours. I've played later in the day where the pace of play is a little over 4 hours, but I think the course marshals are pretty good at doing their job, which is managing the pace of play and not just riding around the course and shooting the bull with everyone.

Ravisloe was the best course I have ever been to in Chicagoland. Definitely worth the trip!

If you get the chance, you've got to play this Donald Ross designed beauty in Homewood, IL. The course conditions were emaculate throughout. A true challenge greets you as you play a course that's been testing golfers for 114 years!

I truly was a great track. Not too long but greens were tough and bunkers were deep. Enjoyed playing there and look forward to going there again.

Atmosphere, grounds, and condition like the private club that it was for so many years. Flower gardens
similar to some of the finest private golf courses.

The course still feels like it is a private club. The course is in great shape. Very good layout that you can score on if you bring your putter (challenging greens).
