Rating Snapshot
About
Senica's Oak Ridge Golf Club sprawls across gently rolling terrain that was used to guide the design. The resulting layout blends in almost seamlessly with the natural landscape. The golf course is routed through forests of mature oak trees and around five sparkling lakes. The back nine plays along a meandering creek. Water hazards come into play on a total of 13 holes and there are nearly 50 bunkers strategically placed throughout. The golf course demands a fair amount of accuracy but it's not overly punishing if you're errant. The final hole plays from an elevated tee, requiring a carry over the creek in order to reach the green. In addition to the golf course, Oak Ridge also offers a practice facility with a driving range, two practice greens, and a practice bunker.

This course was in good shape after a full week of rain.
After a full week of rain it was is great shape. Greens were soft of course. The place is always busy but still move at a good pace. It was sunny 80 lakes were full and creeks were flowing beautiful!
well groomed
This is one if my favorites, absolutely gorgeous course.
Good Course for the area
Holes 1 through 13 are open and you have room for misses. The last 5 holes are played among mature Oak Trees and miss areas get smaller. Wish the whole course was like that. Greens were fast. Pro shop guy was very friendly and since this was my first time gave me a yardage book.
I will go back.
Good course, bad day
Greens were being aerated, and we had to play the back nine twice. We didn't find out until we started on the front nine, once at the start and again after the first (back) nine. We had bets with carries going, and the natives got restless (our foursome). Twice we had to stop playing a hole before finishing, and certain players were in position to win had we been able to finish. There were on-course communication problems with this situation, involving the maintenance workers. One said something to the effect that nobody tells anyone anything around here. Tempers got a bit raised by some of us, which doesn't make for a good day.
:)
But anyway, it is a challenging fun course. It is a first shot golf course for sure! If you are playing the correct tees, you cannot just hit driver on every hole. If someone knows out how to play the 12th, please let me know!!! :)
We spent a lot of time looking for balls in the rough. But it has been very rainy. In normal times, I would hope they keep the rough lower than it was, because the course has enough defenses otherwise.
For Chicagoland golfers, I would say this course is Big Run Lite. Not as difficult but the same type of terrain and shot values. We plan to go again.
Great value course
Great course, great condition. Have golfed here a few times and recommend it highly.
good bang for buck
nice course for the money,very well maintained and great clubhouse,everybody from pro to fellow players were incredibly nice,would play again
Very nice course and challenging
The course was in great condition and I had a lot of fun playing there. Some holds were very tight and narrow so you have to hit it straight. It's a beautiful course especially for the price.
value
great course for the money, we got caught in a monsoon and were called off after nine due to severe wind and lightning.
Great course
Love playing here!! Golf now makes it possible. I will play here again.
Beautiful
This is a truly beautiful course!
Bent grass fairways, perfect greens and amazing sand?!
Many dog-leg holes keep you on your toes!
Great elevation changes.
Awesome club house.
Had a great time and even though there are many tough holes it is fair and beautiful! Would do it again and will plan to!
Nice bent fairways with great greens
Played the course the day after 3 inch rainfall and high winds hit the course. They lost 12 trees due to the storm but we were still able to play the course with no problems. Challenging back nine. Nice greens and fairways. Will play again.
Great course in good shape
Great course. Front 9 pretty easy but back nine is challenging. Great value for the price. Will go back.
Awesome course!
Course was in fantastic shape! I rated food good because a response was required but the restaurant was actually closed. Staff was very friendly. I would definitely recommend playing this one!
Great course value
Played course numerous times. Course has great back nine. Food and staff is great.Course a great value and experience.
Best Course in the area!
In my opinion it's the best course in the area overall. We'll maintained, fun, and challenging for the well seasoned golfer. Yet, still not totally frustrating for the weekend hacker like myself.
Trees need trimming..
The overall maintenance was okay but not great. The real problem is that there a number of trees with branches overhanging the edge of the fairway that should be trimmed back10, especially on the back nine.
Nice course that needs a couple truckloads of sand.
Nice layout, smooth greens and in great conditions for October. The only complaint I have about this course the the traps are mostly dirt. You need a wedge with no bounce or you will be scalding every sand shot.
Very nice course
This course was in good condition and it was a beautiful day.
Fun course
Very forgiving course. Friendly staff and bar/restaurant has good food at reasonable prices!
WELL MAINTAINED COURSE
BEST COURSE WE HAVE PLAYED THIS YEAR. OPEN FAIRWAYS AND WELL MAINTAINED GREENS THAT WILL HOLD YOUR BALLS AND RUN TRUE.
