Good value for the money

I used to play this course on a permanent tee time years ago - when this was one of the top courses in the area. It is not maintained nearly as well as it has in the past. That said, the price for this course was fair.

Still a good layout - greens had good speed but the players who normally play here really hurt the course by not fixing divots and ball marks. Not the courses fault - that is what you get when you drop your prices.

Nice little course hidden in the Gurnee area. Great layout, well bunkered with water in play on seceral holes. Greens ran fast and true. Pro shop guys were outstanding.

Issue with biting flies near the water hazards, bring insect repellant. Other than that, no complaints.

Plays long enough from the tips, and clever elevation changes around greens make accurate irons a must you really should try this course.

Good Test

Overall nice layout and in good Condition except that they over water ! Tee time was at 8:40 and there still was standing water in the fairways Way too much watering

I understand it is hot but over watering causes its own problems

Pace of play is average. Never saw a ranger and they could use one Played in 4:15. A little too slow. Played another course on Tuesday about the same time and played in 3:06. - threesome both times

Problem is not only theirs. Many courses think 4:30 is a good time.

Live about 50 miles away so have to get a great deal to come back here

two negatives: women's tee boxes are very small and no beverage cart service during the whole round. Value rating based on hot deal tee time.

Great Course-Midlane CC

First time playing the course. Talked with the Pro at time of check in and he gave useful tips about certain spots to be in off the tee. Greens ran very true, just a tad slow, but we were an early tee time 6:10. Condition of the course and the layout are challenging. Only complaint is there is no water stations on the course and we did not see a beverage cart until the 17th hole.

Will return.

Not user friendly

Course is challenging and in good shape. It was a very hot Saturday afternoon; there's no water on the course and we did not see a cart once. The pace of play was horrendous; no ranger, 4 groups piled up, we actually left after 16. We had a great deal but will not come back.

Great layout, just needs a little TLC to become five star

I've golfed this course quite a bit and I like the value I get as its a great layout. Just needs a little bit more groundskeeping maintenance and some more sprinkler yardage markers. The one thing I haven't really tried out but will next time is the practice facility as it looks excellent. Other than that, its one of the best values on golfnow.com and I'll keep coming back.

Sloped Geens

Must admit even after playing this course fair amount of times, the greens remain challenging. Not only are the pins placed strategically but the fast greens get faster as the sun dry up the morning dew.

Midlane is not the most difficult course but it definitely can be challenging. Need to be ring A short game in order to put up a decent score.

It was $35 w/ cart for weekend...can't beat the price.
