Great value, fun round

The conditions are very good, with the exception of the sand traps which are nearly unplayable around the greens. in addition, it seems as if almost no one repairs their ball marks at this course. Several putts during the round had to go through someone's unrepaired ball mark.

Best Course in the South Suburbs for the money

By far the best 3 and challenging 3 hole finish in Chicago area. Best value hands down. Beats a lot of course that cost more.

Great shape and round

Greens were immaculate and pin placement was challenging. Fairways were great except 2 holes which were almost too soft given the rain. Ranger did a great job making sure pace of play kept up. Very happy I played here.

Nothing special

The course is fine, but having played other courses nearby recently (Balmoral and Tuckaway) this course didn't stand out. It is mostly flat. It was in decent condition. The greens were fine. I just was unmemorable. Great value for weekend but I won't be back.
