This course was in moderate condition.
Pace of was horrible 4 1/2 hrs for two people ,foursome in front playing slow would not let us play thru.No Ranger
Bummer
Joe Louis used to be ol’ reliable. You could always find tee times, pay a decent price for what you were playing and the cons were an afterthought. Not anymore. We played over the weekend and left after 12 holes in 3+ hours. The rangers do what they can, but there’s no way around it. If you’re looking for a 6 hour round and a 15 minute wait on ever tee box then this is the course for you.
Back 9 needs some TLC
Great course, but the back nine needs help. Especially the green on 14. But overall I like playing there. Wish they’d keep the grill out longer lol
45 min wait
Tee time at 10 . Had to wait till 10 50 to tee off. Staff rude that when we asked what the delay was. 6 hour round. Never going back
Good course, slow pace of play
Like all Forest Preserve courses, it's in good shape. However, there was a cluster of groups waiting to tee off on the first hole, and it didn't get any better from there. This is a course where driver isn't always (or even usually) your best option, but try telling that to everyone pulling it out on every tee box and hitting their ball either into another fairway, into high grass, or out of bounds. Five hours to play the round was not fun.
Love Joe Louis
We had perfect weather. The course is not overly challenging. I actually got my best 9 hole score on the back 9. I do love coming here.
Solid spot
Great place, good price. Nice staff. I even left my phone and they held onto it for me!
Terribly maintained
This course is in such poor shape I will probably never play it again unless I get word they have turned it around. I would blame the Supt. But it’s likely not his fault. I imagine Cook County is not funding the course with proper staffing levels or capital needed to properly maintain a golf course
