Best 9 hole course in Illinois.

The course played short but challenging enough for any level of golfers, very friendly staff and the restaurant is well above average.

This course held the first televised professional golf tournament.

Best nine hole golf course in the state of Illinois, well maintained despite the number of play.

Nice course

It was pretty quiet for our 11:40 tee time. We didn’t need to wait for anyone ahead of us. Finished up In under 2 hours

Nice 9 hole-er

Good pace of play and well maintained. Relatively tight fairways but stay in them and you’ll be fine. I would recommend this to anyone that just wants a nice 9 hole course with good pace and value.
