Tricky Course
Overall this course was a good challenge for a weekend golfer like myself. Tight fairways and mature trees called for one to put thought into his game. The only downside was the condition of the greens. Poor etiquette created for some rough greens(unrepaired divots)
Worth the drive
I live over in Normal, but try to make the trip over at least once a year to play this gem. Course is in excellent shape and fun to play. Watch out for the hornets between the first green and the ninth tee.
I love Lick
Heavy morning rain prevented riding cart use. Although soggy, the course was in great shape. I look forward to the next round.
New Back Tees add a lot of yardage and difficulty
Overall course was in very good shape. Green were in good condition, rolled smooth and somewhat fast. Only issue were many bunkers still had water in them, so drainage was an issue. it had been a few years since i last played, and the new tees definitely add a lot of length on several hole. the are a few holes (like #6) and are very wonky, but the rest of the coure layout is good.
They need rangers
I have played this course over a dozen times and find it to be one of the more challenging courses in the area. The layout is excellent and course is generally well maintained. The only reason I won't be back anytime soon is lack of oversight on pace of play. I played in a twosome this week. Finished the front in about an hour and a half until we caught a slow foursome on nine. We got to the tenth tee where we encountered 2 foursomes who had yet to tee off. They were thoughtless and SLOW. Completely ruined the round. We spent the next 2 hrs and 45 minutes waiting on every shot while they chatted and fished balls out of the water. They actually waited and played the last hole as an eight some. I'm all about social golfing if you realize that others are there to move. While I realize that it isn't the courses fault that there are so many inconsiderate golfers, I feel it is their responsibility to have people out there maintaining page of play. If you have time for a 5 hour Thursday round, then this is the course for you
One the finest courses in central Illinois
Course was in excellent condition. Greens were super fast which made for delicate touch to get down in two once on the green.
Great course and in great shape
Great course and I would recommend putting it on your list to play this year. Very challenging
Great course layout
Great conditions. Good pace of play.
Lick Creek is a great course to play!
We had a great day of golf on a cloudy 65° day. Course was well kept and we enjoyed the whole day, despite our poor performance. Guy at the clubhouse was ok, he hardly smiled and barely spoke, but got us everything we needed. Would definitely recommend this course to anyone.
Who knew
Really nice course, and the condition was excellent. Carts are a bit slow and the guy behind the desk didn't like to be bothered to actually do his job, but the course was fantastic.
Great Golf
The greens were fast and true. The course was in good condition but a few of the bunkers needed some work. Great golf and great value!
very nice and great value
I had a great morning and didn't feel like I was being gouged for money.
Tough but fun Course from the tips
It was a pretty neat course. Some great views amd holes. I would however recommend playing from the white tees for your first time on the course before you learned. Playing from the blue tees was a little hard on my friend and I when we are between six and eight handicap. It was however enjoyable to play.I would however recommend playing from the white tees for your first time on the course before you learned.

It was still a lot of fun.

Very challenging course. Several narrow fairways and blind shots. Lots of fun.
Lick is great value for money
Very challenging course with different tees for varying levels of skill. Greens were a little rough. You can tell the course gets some play.
MUCH IMPROVED
PLAYED THE COURSE 8 YEARS AGO AND IT IS SO MUCH NICER NOW. IMPROVEMENTS WERE WELL WORTH IT. GREENS IN EXCELLANT SHAPE.
Great Park District Course in Central IL
Great course for the price. Very challenging, and good condition for how much play this course gets. I would vote it's the best park district course in Central IL.
