Course is tough; fairways are very poor.

The course is very challenging and lots of water.

The fairways are rough and there is almost no roll or bounce to it.

Some holes were better than others.

3/5 experience due to the course conditions.

Terrible layout

Not a great layout. Several holes you didn’t know which green you were hitting into from 100 yards out. Some holes impossible to hit green in regulation. Very narrow as well, apartments and houses everywhere. Worst part we’re the greens, very small, and also we’re super slow. It was like putting on carpet.

Nice little course

Pretty nice little course. Short but tight, greens are nice and also a little small to make it more challenging. A bit slow for such a short course.

Solid course, good value, nice staff

This course was fun to play. Overall layout is moderately challenging with some really tough holes, but this should not dissuade an average golfer from playing here. Staff is always friendly. Pace of play was the only downside as the group ahead was playing excessively slow and did not let us pass. The round took over 4 and a half hours. Full bar/food service at the turn was awesome but they could use a cart girl/server for refreshments while playing. I will be back.

Disappointed in Old Orchard golf course.

First time I played Old Orchard in many years. While the course was pretty much as I remembered it the pace of play was unacceptable. There were multiple groups waiting on almost every tee. When I say the ranger drive by me I asked him if he was looking into the reason that it was so slow. He prefer it to hear me and drove away. Not the way to run a course.

Not as it used to be, in a bad way

This course has gone through many changes over the years. Not all are for the better. Take a tip from Mt. Prospect golf course, bent fairways and greens cut the way they should be.

A Little Bit of Everything

First time at OOCC. Very scenic course, tons of water, sand and trees. Tight and narrow course ask for straight drives and iron shots. Nice mix of par 5s, 4s and 3s. Challenging greens. A bit pricey, but a nice course overall. We'll be back.

Nice Sporty Course

Old Orchard is always in great condition. Love the Bent fairways. It's like hitting off a carpet. The course can be deceptively challenging. It has strategically placed bunkers and water hazards.

As remembered

The course needs more TLC in the way of greens cut closer and fairways. Including the tee's which are all spongey. Perhaps take a lesson from <MT. Prospect, Nice bent grass fairways and greens.
