Friendly staff and nice layout

Always love playing deer creek. Great value for the money and the staff is always a 10. Unfair to judge course as it was cart path only after two days of heavy rain. However they had just rolled greens and they were in great shape. We will be back!

Early Season Golf

The course is much better than it was last week. Grounds are firmer and greens are faster. Looking forward to how it will look later in the season. Shared a great round of golf with good friends.

South side gem

The course is in good shape for new year of golf. Greens are still dormant, but rolling pretty well. Bunkers need raking, and rakes need to be put in bunkers. Many deer tracks, and foot prints in them. Overall, the course is good and pace of play is alright.

Still Early

Great value for the money, course conditions will improve as the weather improves. One of the toughest finishing 4 hole stretches in the area.

Course conditions

Was nice to get an early March round in. Course was in surprisingly good shape being so early in the year. We dont get many 65 degree days this early in March, so it was nice of Deer Creek to open up. Challenging course but you can do well with good iron shots.

Local course

Course was in good shape. Traps were water covered and lacking playable sand. Greens were a little slow compared to previous rounds.

This track is a gem.

This track is a gem. Meticulously maintained, even when the leaves come down. The greens are true as can be, but still not easy. Freshly paved paths make for a smooth ride. In Chicago, that's a priceless oddity. Thanks again, can wait to be back.
