Midlane Country Club

fairways and greens in great condition ... they are watered every day when needed. Challenging with water on 14 out of 18 holes, but fun for all level of players.

The fairways are like hitting off a carpet and the greens roll true. The greens are also very soft, they hold your aproach shots well. Seemed to be a lot of people not repairing their divots on the greens, fixed alot of them.

Played this course a few times and I don't have any complaints. Greens roll true and fairways that are as good as can be in the current hot and muggy conditions. Tee boxes were a bit worn sprayed with unreplaced divot marks(only negative).. Can be a tricky at times with the front 9 having water come into play quite often and depending on the day the wind is a factor. Great little risk/reward track. Bring an extra sleeve of balls if it's windy. 18th is geourgous hole and the epitome of the risk/reward hole. Get a decent drive off and the green is reachable in 2 if wind is not big of a factor.
The practice facilities grass range(tin cup) style, pitch and chip greens, and putting greens are all in great shape.
I recommend it especially when there's a deal on it.. Good luck.

Just a gorgeous challenging course its one of the nicer places I've played this year. Staff, carts, and amenities are outstanding definitely looking to play there very soon.

What's not to like! Great course, lots of fun to play, good conditions, reasonably priced, nice staff.

The staff people were very nice and the course was in good shape.

Always a challenge. Nice facility, but needs mulch bottles on the carts so you can repair the grass after shots. Scorecard could use better yardage marking.

We'd never played Midalne before, so our expectations were based on GolfNow reviews (which proved to be mostly spot on). This is a nice facility with ample and quality practice areas, and a challenging (but fair) golf course. The course was in above average condition, however I thought the greens were rolling a little slow. First timers beware! There is lots of water on this course and some of it doesn't reveal itself to the naked eye. Bring an extra sleeve of balls. The back nine is a more interesting golf experience than the front and more fun. The 18th is a terrific risk/reward par 5 finishing hole.

Most of the greens are elevated and guarded by bunkers, so accurate approaches are necessary if you want to score. We played on a windy afternoon, so pulling the correct club was a bit of a guessing game. Pace of play was good for a weekday afternoon and the Golfnow price made it a bargain.

If you are tired of playing your same ole same local course, give Midlane a try. It's a great value, and will allow you to hit every club in your bag. There is just enough water, force carries, and sand to test your skills.

It took more than 5hrs on Saturday afternoon and I saw the ranger just once, not enough attention.

At the clubhouse, Pro/Manager Bill Aldridge does it all. The range is adequate for practice or warm-ups. Onceout to the course, be prepared for some challenging golf with forced carries and plenty of hidden water in landing areas. Take along a copy of the course layout specially if you haven't been to Midlane in a few years. Soem beautiful old oaks line the fairways with cathedral like views on some of the newer holes on the back nine. First nine now has many homes lining the fairways.

Too bad it's so far from Chicago, I'd go more often if it was closer. I used to go here when they had 36 holes. While they got rid of a few good ones (when they chopped it to 18), there is still a lot of good left. What is now the back 9 still hosts some of my favorite holes. There is a challenging group of picturesque holes that look amazing before sunset.

I was however, harshly reminded that there is an aggressive gnat population that can be really distracting. While you soak in the beauty of the last four holes you must guard your face, ears, mouth against these guys. I've never figured out if related to the last holes, or hot sweaty days, or if they just come out for dark, but the gnats are the only downside to what can be a beautiful round of golf.

Good value for the money. Only improvement I would suggest is to put GPS on the carts. Also add turf repair containers to carts, not a great expense.

The day we played, the course received quite a bit of rain and was saturated. Despite the wetness, the course was in very good shape, the greens were also in very good shape but rolled a little slow. Nice variety of holes, a couple narrow landing areas but overall very enjoyable.

This course is very well maintained and play time was very good. I've played here a couple of times and I would recommend this course to anyone.

It's a nicely maintained course that has a little bit of everything - and lots of water.

The course is 6,800 yards from the tips and it is a challenge. It was well maintained and the pace of play was excellent.

Very nice course, great value and outstanding pace of play - appears to play like a private course.

Love playing this course! It was in great condition for this early season. It is female friendly---enough challenge without causing undue frustration.

Was pleasantly surprised when I tied off for the first time at Midlane Resort. Fairways and greens were in excellent condtion, very good layout with variety of trees, water, and dog legs. Price is low and cant be beat here, was able to start early and play quickly.
