Love this Course!

A beautiful course that winds through the woods! Plan on seeing some deer! This is a challenging course with numerous elevation changes and is a very peaceful golfing experience. I golf here at least twice when I visit family in the area. Fall golf here is an exceptional treat!!

Weedy

Many nice tree-lined fairways. Poison ivy if you happen to get under any of them. Very scenic location along Rock River and challenging layout.

Beautiful Course

Challenging course, tight fairways, lots of trees and tall grasses. You will lose some balls, but it’s worth it. Nice elevation changes. Fun par 3’s. Reachable par 5’s with accurate drives. Greens in great shape! Worth your time.

pase of play

The lady that checked me in perhaps the bartender sent me of the back nine to start due to league play later that afternoon. She did this for 3 groups starting and it mixed us in with 2 other groups that just finished the front nine. So needless to say there was a lot of waiting with all of us bunched up together.

Such a GREAT Course

Best course for your money! Challenging course with scenic views. Everyone is super friendly. I live in the suburbs area now but am originally from the area and this course would be a $100 dollar course anywhere else. Love playing here!
