Best Nile hole golf course in Illinois.
The course is always in great condition despite the amount of play. Very friendly staff and the 19th hole is one of the best.

In the team picture for best 9 hole courses in area!!!
I had never played Tam. I had heard that it is a great course. It did not disappoint. Lush fairways, greens, tees and bunkers. Very impressed. Greens were quick but extremely receptive and rolled true. Not a long course, but awesome if you want to work on hitting a hybrid / 5 wood or iron from the tees.
Staff was courteous, professional and warming. I didn't stop in for a sandwich or libation, but the bar looked fantastic.
