Quaint out of the way GEM

What an awesome find near my back backyards (live in Oak Lawn), they keep course well manicured for a reasonably priced course (and nothing worse than dealing with rock hard sand in the bunkers because of lack of attention, but not here, soft as a .....), though it would have been nice to have sand fill in the cart for us courteous golf ears that actually fill in our divots that can't be replaced in areas. I highly recommend all that want to get in a quick 9, or play a fun 18 that repeats, so worth it!!!!

brutal pace

2.5+ hours for a short 9 hole course is unpleasant. the twosome in front of us were playing the tips and should have been playing the front tees. looking for lost balls on nearly every shot and NO ranger to get them moving. Makes golfing on this course not fun.

Palos Rob, don't complain when the review goes negative. The first rating is for course pace, his was poor and that is what he stated. A ranger might be in order to watch pace of play. These comment help other and can help the course as well if they choose to react.

Challenging 9 holes

First time visit, very challenging 9 hole course tucked away in a neighborhood and is very secluded. Pace of play was very good for a Sunday afternoon and busy. Greens were very challenging and I enjoyed the layout. Price was fantastic and I will return again.

Interesting Course

The course was much better than was expecting it to be. Much tougher than the slope/rating suggests. Good value for the money paid thru Golfnow.

Not worth it

I took my dad out for a round for Father's Day, and was joined with my best friend and his brother. We were paired behind a group that included two people clearly new to golf, and we were left waiting behind them on the tee box for at least 5 minutes each hole. At no time did a course marshal drive by and tell them to pick up the pace of play, or let us play through.

For the price we paid, the length of the course, and the management of the facilities, I recommend taking the time to drive out to the NW or western suburbs to play a round out there.

Do not play

Thought I was playing a full 18 holes. I paid 27 for 9 holes, wow! This course is only 9 holes and it's nothing special. For spending 27 dollars you will feel like you wasted your money. It's worth about 10 dollars. I would have rather played meadows in blue island which is full 18 and roughly 25$ on golf now plus way better course. I recommend finding another course unless these guys drop their prices to around 10-15 for a full 18 which allows you to go around their 9 holes 2 times. Waste of money!

Great 9 hole course

This is a nice course nestled away from the beaten path. The course is both challenging and forgiving, based on which hole you are on. There are many trees lined along most holes and a stream that cuts the 2nd and 9th hole which create a blind shot. Great value for the money, EXCEPT the cart fees at $10 per person. Most walk anyway. Pace of play is usually good and the ranger will come around every once in awhile. No Beverage cart, but alcohol and other drinks available and club house.
