Golfer Reviews
Flat
Nice course but flat with very little movement in the greens. Easy to score well. Areas between fareway's are full of thistles and very high weeds. Answer to that of course is to stay in the fareway., However instead of adding to the charm of the course these areas make the course look cheap and somewhat unkept. A better way to make the course a bit more fun (and challenging) would be to add a few bunkers around the front of the greens. Kudo's to the greens keeper as the greens roll true. The course has three-9 hole courses with regular rotation to make for variety of 18 hole experiences. The staff is very friendly. I would have given the course a 4 star rating if the approach to the greens forced me to be a bit more strategic in my shot selection. You can basically shoot for the front of the green and let the ball roll up on virtually every hole.
Hidden gem in NW suburbs
I’ve played Boone Creek since 2000, and the course is getting better with age. While the layout is pretty straight forward, the grounds crew keep the difficulty up by having longer, thicker ruff and we’ll manicured greens. The pro shop is always very accommodating to help you with all of your needs. I recently booked a larger charity outing at Boone and was blown away by the help that was provided. The bar area is well run, and the food/drink prices are very reasonable.
Boone Creek Golf Course is well worth the trip out to play. You’d be hard pressed to find a better value for the cost at any other local courses.
Greens
Greens were airated. and sanded, they were lightening fast with little break. Made for some putting. Course was in great shape
Outstanding Facility! Worth the trip northwest!
If you’re looking for an outstanding golf experience in the NW Chicago burbs, check out Boone Creek.
They have three great nine-hole courses, earmarked & rotated for nine and 18 hole play, nice driving range, putting green, pro shop and bar/grill for before and after round activities.
The Creekside course was fun to play and beautiful to look at while walking.
Wide open and well maintained
Greens in good shape, rolled and true. Couse is short but fun as pace of play is speedy - completed 18 in 3:30 starting at 0730 on a Sat.
Nice greens, true roll.
Rough tough enough.
Cart girl could use a lesson in golf etiquette. Talking rather loudly while we were attempting to tee off. A couple of times she parked in a manner that blocked the cart path and prevented going around while she waited on other golfers.
Great Value
I really enjoyed this course love how its 3 different 9 hole courses so it can be different everytime you play. Pace of play was pretty good also and for the price you cant beat it!
Enjoyed the round of golf on a gorgeous day! The fairways and greens are in great shape!
Didn’t play. Rained out.
We’ve had several days of rain in Northern Illinois, including all day June 21st. Weren’t able to play. Hopefully another time. I’ve heard good things about the venue, can’t wait to see for myself.
Boone Creek
This is a great course tucked conveniently between Crystal lake and McHenry.
I love to play here when I'm try to make some small adjustments. It relatively flat and easy to navigate for those who walk. This is a great course that easy fairly easy to play.
Conditions
Greens were brown but well tended. Not many ball marks left unprepared.
Pastoral Natural Setting
The beauty of Boone Creek is its natural setting. NO houses with a beautiful creek running through it. Also very playable and fair course for players above a 10 hndcp and challenging for low handicappers if played from back tees. Greens over the last 5 years have really become good and turf is also in good condition.Expansive practice area. Course is fairly flat.Great spot for a social round of golf
