Boone Creek Golf Club - Creekside Course

Has 3 nines and they rotate them which gives you a chance to play them all. Great shape and great staff.

The Good: Low-priced, 27-hole west Chicago suburban course doesn't pretend to be an upscale track but has enough challenge and quirk to be a fun track. Decent course conditions and moderately shaped greens that putt pretty smooth. Nice clubhouse and bar complex that includes an outdoor area. Good practice facilities includes a driving range and a huge putting green. Nice mixture of Par 4's that include a few "go-for-broke" holes that are driveable. Good value at under $50 during weekend peak season.

The Bad: Not much variety in the Par 3's or Par 5's. Fairways tend to be very damp. While clubhouse is better than average, no GPS and too few yardage markers. Pace of play is often an issue and the staff is only moderately interested in ensuring your satisfaction.

The Verdict: The Valley and Prairie are the least interesting nines at Boone Creek. Overall, a good option in McHenry county if you want cheap, fun golf.

Best Hole(s): The opening hole on the Valley course is a challenging double dogleg Par 5. The closing hole on the Prairie nine is a tight Par 4 that doglegs left.

Course was in excellent shape. Staff was polite and helpful. Great course to play at a good value. My only recommendation for the course would be to have more than just 1 water station per 9 holes. Bring plenty of water from home.

Course was great! Starter let us out early. Didn't like the 15 inch holes.

The golf coarse was close to home. for the price it fit my need. good golf for the average player. pace was great.the special price from golf now pairs you up with other golfers

lot of greenery trees grass bushes backgrounds. fairways are in great shape.greens are fast.

Really like this coarse it's fun coarse staff is nice and other holders weren't pushy when it comes to beginners

I had alot of fun since it's pretty easy. Short distance, fun, not many trees, barley water.

This course is a lot of fun to play. It's wide open and has relatively large greens. The fairways are in great shape and the greens were in excellent condition. Aside from a small confusion at the beginning with the starter, the staff is very friendly and willing to help. We were paired with another twosome and still got through our round relatively quickly, approximately 4 hours.

Fairway and greens very well maintained and wetland do come into play

This is the first time I have gotten to play the Valley section of the course. I really enjoyed the beauty and challenges of this section. One of the features I like about Boone Creek is that they rotate the three sections of play and you can come often and not play the same course twice. Well maintained course. Nice people.

Friendly staff, very slow pace since there are walkers.

This course is a great value, course is a great place to play and score well. Course is in good shape and the staff is friendly and is a good place to practice your game or even hit a bucket of balls. Inexpensive course and normally pace is 3.5 to 4.0 hours. Nice course to get a quick eighteen in to stay in tune. Will play it again I am sure.

Price was right. Not very well maintained. Dress code non existent.

This is a great course for any skill level. It is well maintained and the greens are very nice. It has a few short and potentially drivable par 4's and a couple par 5's that are great for birdie opportunities. If you are able to keep the ball straight you will have no problem achieving a low score. Even if you slice, the other fairway allows you decent position to the green.

I have been golfing for 15 years now and have never been more man leaving a golf course in my life and I didnt even play bad. Horrible rangers, the pro shop guy could care less about what happened to us. The staff thinks that slow play is playing four hours with a foursome. I will never go back to this place again, they treat you like scum if you go through GOLFNOW.

The staff were not friendly. I hooked up with 3 others and all of us are not good. We were average at best. The fairways are soggy despite the fact it had not rained for awhile negating any real roll on your shot. Clumps of dried brown grass were all over the fairways and the rough was really thick and long making it very hard to get a good shot off for a slow swing. We had a hard time finding are shots in the rough. A pair of rangers berated us for our "slow" play despite the fact nobody was behind us. I HAD A HEATED DISCUSSION WITH THESE PEOPLE. It took us four hours ten minutes. I will never go back and would not give them a favorable review.

This was my first time playing the course and I was pleasantly surprised with its conditon. The greens were some of the nicest I've played this year. The fairways and greens are in great condition. If I had to remark about anything it would perhaps be the lack of a second cutting along the fairways. The rough is left quite high, which does make it challenging to hit out of. It would be nice to have a better lie if you're just off of the fairway in the second cut.

Great place for beginners and experienced.

Staff super nice and helpful.

This course at a discounted rate is definitely worth the trip!
