Great course

Hands down a great course. Well maybe one bad thing there might have been a few traps that needed work. But that's normal everywhere. Oh and another bad thing no Logo balls in pro shop! I will return thank for a great round.

Slow play

Although the course was in excellent shape the pace of play was so very slow it made it no fun. We asked people if it was like this all the time and was told it was. Can’t see playing this course again.

Seen better days

When you drive up, resort building looks bad. Chain link fencing has been there for years now. Course is in decent shape. Traps need better grooming. But everything else seems dated. Lotsa water presents a challenge but it’s all ugly weedy..Need a marshall out there to move things along. Twosome ahead of me were not using the cart paths, parking right next to greens; they needed supervision. This is no longer a priority golf destination.

No refund

Hello, I went to play this course from golf now. It rained so they weren’t letting carts out which is understandable. But they would not offer a pull cart for your clubs and would refuse to credit the money back for a round another day or a refund. They said it was because of golf now which this review is for. Credit me my $55 round as I have a heavy bag and will not walk 18 holes with it. Or at least offer a refund, change of day, or pull cart.

Aging course, not getting better

Greens fairly good. Sand traps were mostly unkept, not raked, baked hard. Too many patches of thin/dirt in the fairways.

Course was great but single players ruined pace of play. It was basically open all day but somehow we ended up waiting most of the back 9

Nice course

Greens were tough to read but fair. Open fairways. Only complaint is no water fountain or coolers or bucket for towel.

Once a great track

Once they changed the course back to 18 they had drainage problems on several fairways

Maybe new owners will restore and improve overall management of course and conditions

Good value for the money

This is a picturesque course hidden in the far northern suburb. Unless you live in the nearby area, this is a hike from anywhere in the Chicagoland area. With the Golfnow deal, it’s a bargain at $35. On the day I played there is hardly anyone so I was handed the cart key after checking in and off I went. There was no starter to check tee time at 1st tee. The layout is quite interesting with plenty of water on many holes. Many ponds are also covered in water lilies and occasional herons can be spotted. The greens were in good shape with plenty of slopes to deal with. The only complaint is that some bunkers are packed down like clay.
