Beautiful Course with Some Flaws
In terms of course design and views, I highly recommend this course. Ponds, Lilly pads, wildflowers, wooden bridges, cornfields, trees in abundance. Challenging - right turns and (multiple) water hazards on most of the holes. Fairways and greens were in excellent condition. Stay on the short grass - roughs we’re very thick.
My only critique with the course are the sand traps. They need a groundskeeper to rake and soften (new sand?) the traps on a daily basis. They were hard as dirt (literally) in most places.
Beer selection could use some IPAs (really - none?).
Cost was affordable for later afternoon summer tee times. Pace of play was a little slow on the back 9. Could’ve used a ranger to get the foursome in front of us to speed it up a bit. For the few flaws - it was worth it.
Midlane Golf Course, Wadsworth, IL
The greens were in relatively good shape, but the rest of the course needs some work. The fairways were hard and areas adjacent to the fairways in many places were ground under- repair. It was difficult getting a divot on iron shots in the fairways. Sand traps were very hard and need to be raked to loosen the sand. Overall, this course gets a 3/5 rating.
good course
Fun course some challenging holes. A few too many ball marks on the greens. Cart paths need to be replaced! Lots of geese. Nothing that would keep me from coming back though.
Water issues
Every year heavy rain causes ponds to overflow. This time it resulted in two holes unplayable. Last year same issue.
They need to put a little money into some water management.. Also no one is cleaning the greens of excessive goose poop.
A beautiful course that will end up destroyed if they don’t put a little more effort into course upkeep.
A Hidden Gem
Truly a hidden gem. Challenging front nine & less easier scenic back nice.
Fairways & greens are well kept although rough is a tad longer.
Pretty empty for a Tuesday.
Staffs are very nice, very accommodating. Even shook my hand since it’s my first time playing there. That’s was such a good gesture. Very professional, welcoming.
Also, bar next door ( Tavern & Table) has one of the best burger I’ve had. Friendly staffs as well.
I would definitely comeback to challenge this course as it consumed a lot of my balls. Lol.
So my advice is prepare your swing confidence, keep it on the fairway, manage the course.

Great layout -tighter than years ago.......
the trees have "grown up" wow, truly enjoyed the round.....we got rained on heavily, twice in the round...but gutted it out. The Sand Traps have a lot to be desired, they are in tough shape - plenty of water, good greens and good layout. The Beer Cart served everyone up.....Nice place - $65 with a cart was close fair, maybe a little much but it was Sunday.
Deferred Maintenance
I was surprised at how highly rated this course was. Signage is non existent as you pull into “address”. Front desk staff was very nice. Course conditions very average. Bunkers in very bad shape. I guess this course may have been nice in the day but I won’t be coming back.
Gone down hill
I used to love playing here but the last 4-5 years the course conditions overall have gone to crap from fairways to greens just not great for the money! Also pace of play the last few times we have played there have been terrible, having to wait 2-5 minutes every shot is not ideal. If you’re reading this and you take your girlfriend or wife out please do so when is not too busy especially on the weekends!
Great value!
I have played this course a few over the last year. It’s one of the best maintained courses in the area. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable providing a great experience for all.
