Great course, under appreciated

Really enjoyed playing here. Challenging with all the water, but not impossible. Nice part of N. Illinois. They had just hired a new management company so the pro-shop was in transition, but the people were so nice. Carts were really nice. We were almost the only ones there. I'd go back for sure.

Midlane, Memorial weekend

The course was difficult. It's been maintained. New carts, this year. There should be a ramp to the club house entrance. Driving carts to your car should be better. The curb ramp should be removed. At $69 for 18 with cart, it's higher than other courses in the area that also have electronics.

The restaurant is poor. At noon there should be a menu for food. 2 hot dogs and 2 cans of beer for $21 is expensive.

Gem in the northwest

It is in fantastic condition. I would ply it again. Greens in excellent shape. It is a tight hard course. Nice grass in fairways. Some rough areas were bare, but very few compared to the whole course.

our round

as a group we liked the layout of the course. the owners need to maintain this place better! cart paths are in terrible shape, no fairway yardage markers we could find! dont play here without a range finder! challenging, fun course to play

my opinion

great layout, water on just about every hole! no easy way to spot the few markers we found indicating yardages to greens. course was in good shape but needs better maintenance protocols. if you dont have a range finder its tough to gauge distances. for $70 per person i expect more. food and drinks in clubhouse are way overpriced! $12 for a hotdog and $8 for a beer? outrageous.

Questionable conditions

There are some decent holes on this course but the conditioning has become crap and the pace of play on a Saturday afternoon was atrocious.
