Great course

Played in 3 1/2 hours. Waiting a little for the golfers in front of us but had no one behind us. Course was in great shape. Only issue was that the halfway house had an open sign but no one was there. The day warmed up and it was a perfect day to play.

Real nice course

This course is really nice but the greens are fast and bendy. I 3-putted the first six holes, and Im not that bad of a putter.

Great place for the $$$

Shorter par 4s but almost every green is elevated making hitting the green crucial. Greens are Incredibly challenging with crazy hills and valleys but the speed is consistent on each, making it more fun than frustrating. You really need to be accurate with your 7-sw when hitting into the green.ma. The whole course is well manicured. My new favorite.

It’s been many years since returning to play Mt. Prospect GC and wow!

They have made significant changes, all for the better too.

The practice areas are by far the best in the area.

New layout is nice

First time playing after the renovation, it’s a bit pricey for the course but probably one of the better courses in our area. Tough greens! Course was in nice shape.

Felt Like a Private Course

My first time playing this course, and I will definitely be back. I'm about a 14 handicapper and challenged myself from the tips today, and this course delivered a good challenge. Although some tee shots require good accuracy, it is still forgiving. Course conditions were great, although the greens were recently aerated. Course is tucked into a neighborhood away from busy roads, so had all the feelings of a private course. Highly recommend! Will be back.
