Midlane Country Club

Haven't played this course in a while buy will be going back. Deal Time for $25 can't bet it!

This once really nice golf course is in sad shape. Greens, fairways, tee boxes, and bunkers are in disrepair. Owners better invest some serious capital into course or sell it to someone who can. Also, the staff needs to be replaced with people who know how to be pleasant to golfing guests. Sorry to be so negative but this once really nice course has gone “ to blank in a hand basket.”

I have played this course a couple of times, weekends like most courses, gets backed up. I played during the week this last time and it was a very good pace of play. This course reminds me a lot of a Florida course as it winds through a neighborhood (and plenty of water). Greens and fairways were in great shape and the staff are always very nice, would definitely recommend this course.

This course layout is great but the maintenance has gone to crap

From 1995-2002, I played Midlane on a permanent time and was a member that brought some attractive playing privlidges. Bad then, Midlane was easily one of the best courses in the Northern suburbs. Fast greens, lush fairways, weekly events for the weekend players, a nice bar/restaurant and other amenities. I left to join in at Thunderhawk when they opened their doors, but would come back to Midlane a few times a year. You saw a gradual deterioration of this course over time as they sold a chunck of the real estate to developers and shrunk the course from 27 to 18 holes.

What I saw yesterday was a train wreck - an embarrassment of a once solid facility. If there was ever a year that courses should be in great shape with Covid causing the season to start late and a summer with the right amount of rain - this is the year. Midlane has never looked worse. Third hole fairway is destroyed from flooded water that burned out the fairway, now just dirt and burnt out grass. Brown spots all over once great greens that shows that the lack of water must be hurting them. No ranger to keep the pace of play up - resulting in a 4:45 round with two carts and four quick players. We were informed by the beverage cart woman that "last call" before she stopped working was happening on the 9th hole - IT WAS 1:30 PM IN THE AFTERNOON!!! THE MONEY LEFT ON THE TABLE AND THE FACT THT YOU HAVE NO WATER JUGS ON THE COURSE DURING A BRIGHT, SUNNY DAY, IS HARD TO BELIEVE. SELLING MORE BEVERAGES TOT HE CROWDED GOLF COURSE MIGHT JUST BRING INT E REVENUE YOU NEED TO FIX THE COURSE. We went in to grab a bag of waters/beers at the turn and see that the girls working the golf counter and the head pro were calling it a day. No one to replace them but an assistant and a bartender.

I think the Kyatt family may still own this facility. They should look to see if there is a buyer for this once great course, they clearly stopped caring. The layout is a good one and the greens do hold well. It is like watching something in front of your eyes just die over time - very sad. I doubt I will ever be back - I will go to Bonnie Brook, ThunderHawk or Sheppard's Crook. Midlane was a big part of my golfing life for a number of years with a bunch of buddies that I played with. We have all since left - this course does not deserve attention until an owner shows he is willing to get this place back to its better days. Very sad.

Rained 2 inches the night before. Called Midlane for either a credit or a later time. Austin was very nice about switching our time a few hours till the course dried out a bit. We were even allowed to take a cart..

Course was in great shape with no one in front or behind us. We had a great time! Will be back for another round soon.

Great shape. Soft fairways and greens. Soft greens=little beat up but totally worth it.

1st arriving at the place you could see that the parking lot was not even taking care of. Yet alone the bag drop holders are falling apart looks run down .Corse looks run down no real sand in the traps gullies running through sand traps .Not even raked watch out for a wrist breaker. Tough Course to play Great Layout but not fun to play when the condition of the course is so miserable , Greens are torn up plus more

This course used to be beautiful ! But now There’s no sand in any of the bunkers it’s like hitting off concrete and the greens are all burned out brown and full of potholes not worth $45 for a weekday !!! Another good course down the drain !!!

Played in 4 hours and 20 minutes due to very slow playing ahead. No Marshall.

Most tees and greens with divots and bare spots; mowing is OK, but apparently no attempt to maintain the course otherwise.

Too bad, because the layout of this course is really great, with plenty of challanges.
