Could be a great course but there is no difference between the fairway and the deep rough. (Grass way too long) even in the tee box

Layout is awesome but there was no maintenance at all

Green was like fairway and fairway was like ruff areas,

Dont waste your money, until they have some maintenance done on course

This course is still being groomed into better shape. I played it yesterday. The greens are cut, they play a little slower than Deer Creek. The fairways are cut but the grass is in poor condition.

THIS IS NOT A COURSE in Tournament Condition. But if you are a Beginner or want to just get out on a course that isn't crowded. It's fine.

The new management team is trying to get the course back and now has new equipment.

YOU can definitely get on.

One staff person said fairways were a bit long. Problem was, you cant tell the difference between fairway or rough. Person stated they were still recovering from rains. Heavy rains were at least 3 weeks ago. They must have had their mowers stolen. Because no one is tending to the course. Greens were in good shape, but really slow. Hope this isnt the norm for this course now because its a really good layout and fun to play. Have played it at least five times last year and was never like this.

Tried giving them another chance, but again they were closed. This is the second time this has happened to me. I tried supporting my local course, after my last round, what a joke. The fairways, not rough was cut. You can lose a ball on just about every hole. The last in the office told me that they hadn’t cut the grass because their lawnmower was broken. I thought she was joking, did I find out how serious she was. It is unfortunate how bad this course has gotten

this course shouldn't be open in its current condition. I felt like someone stole my wallet on the way to the course every time I book is literally stealing money I went there on Father's Day weekend and could not have been any more disappointed. The bar is not open no golf equipment to buy in the clubhouse T's golf balls Etc they still had strict covid restrictions even though Illinois is fully opened up the fairways are as long as rough the rough it's 5 in + long in places you can lose a golf ball on almost every hole the greens were tore up.... don't go here

I learned to play golf on this course 30 years ago. It breaks my heart to see it in the condition it's currently in. The grass in the fairway is as long as the rough and the rough is more than ankle-deep. The bunkers have grass growing in them and are 50% submerged due to The recent rain. It is my hope the course will experience a comeback as it is now under new management.

I love this course and was sad to see that it was in poor shape today when we played it. The people who run the course indicated that they were having an equipment issue, and realized they have a problem, and appear to be taking steps to rectify it. I give the young man I spoke to credit for acknowledging the problems (uncut grass and general neglect), and I will definitely give the course another chance later in the year. I really want this course to be what it once was!

Grass was extremely long. Seems like it has not been cut all year. Every hole you did not hit the fairway on you had to spend 10 minutes + trying to locate your ball in the grass. Played here many of times and the conditions are gradually getting worse. Not someone to complain but man was it rough

I want to start off by saying that the staff was very friendly & welcoming, even went as far as to offer us free water bottles. The course design & layout is great with loads of potential. Unfortunately, the conditions were extraordinarily poor. The greens, fairways, & rough were not cut... they look like they haven’t been cut in sometime. The bunkers were half weeds, half sand. Many of the greens had loads of bird poop, ant hills & long grass...every inch the ball would bounce. The rough is as high 6-7 inches in some areas which can make your ball impossible to find (which also affects pace of play) & very difficult to get out. Long uncut grass makes for snail slow greens & fairways. With all that said, I still managed to have my best round of an 87. If this course put the proper TLC that it deserves then it would definitely be worth the price I paid & would definitely come back, but until then, I’ll have to pass. If you plan to golf here, call ahead & check if there roughs, greens & fairways have been cut!

Very disappointed with this course. From top to bottom, this course was in terrible condition. Fairways were not cut clean. Outside of fairways were also uncut. Sand traps had over growth of weeds. Greens either had patches of dead grass or actual weeds which made every putt bounce.

Although a decent layout with ample tee box choices, the course has obviously been neglected over the past year since last here. Fairway grass is long. Fairways have clover, fescue and other invasive weeds infestation. Sand traps are overrun with weeds and otherwise very “un”-sandy. Greens have weed growth, are long, and do not roll true. The rough grass is impossibly long and balls just a few feet off the fairway are buried. Finding rough balls takes forever and contributed to a much longer than necessary time of play. It’s too bad, but U.P. Is off our play list for the remainder of this year. Not worth the reasonable $24 hot deal rate.

Course is in excellent condition. Greens a little too firm. Rough is challenging. New owners doing a great job with maintaining this golf course. This place deserves more play!!

Absolute great course. The play is a little slow on Monday mornings because of league play...
