Mystic Oak Golf Course

The course has some challenging holes, but the majority of the course is pretty player friendly for all skill levels. The course staff is friendly and the offers great rates.

Fairways and were like the rough. I understand that it rained a bunch and it was cart-path only conditions, but having to search for balls on the fairway!???

pulling into the course was the best part of the day. Grass had been cut , but they waited so long that it looked like rows of hay waiting to be bailed. No driving range, course was dry i broke tee after tee trying to get them in the ground.I think it could be a very nice course, just needs some work. This is just my opinion based on my experience .

Good conditions
Back nine is quite hilly
Water comes into play alot

The course was in fairly good shape. The rough right off the fairway had a lot of white clover in it. It was a bit high, lots of balls lost in bounds because of this. I would suggest using golf balls that are not white. There were 2 groups that played slower that did not allow us to play through. The round took 5 hours to play we barely finished before dark. I will play this course again, but just maybe not on the weekend.

this course has a friendly staff and I clearly taking care of the course. Probably the best fairways and greens I have played on this year.

The tall grass just off the fairway hides balls and requires too much time to find your ball. The grass next to the greens is just too high to hit through as an average golfer. There is a Par 4 dogleg right that goes down a steep grade and up another steep grade to the green that should be a Par 5 hole. There were entirely too much grass cuttings left on and off the fairways, which would hide balls, causing a loss in stroke. Too much time was spent looking for balls.

My wife and I love this course. We play there a few times a year. The course is in pretty good shape, greens are faster than you think. Fairways could use some work, but not bad. There are some very tough holes on this course, but most are easy to moderate. Staff is friendly, but you don't see a lot of people at the clubhouse. The restaurant is great, but it is not a 19th hole, it is a restaurant. Love the course. Worth the price every time.

a 2 star course .... but interesting.. this might be good for southern Il. but this does have not grass fairways.. just weeds....greens are good to better .. but the rough around the edge of the greens is a very tough weed rough not higher grass ....
good was the tight fairways and the shot maker style design layout.... par 3 are long
Never been to Scotland but expect this is what it's like there ....... I like Michigan ( PGA ) type courses ..
so it might be good for this area... I guess..

The greens were in good shape and a bit quick. Some showed the affects of summer. Fairways were ok. Like most courses it has changeling holes. Elevation changes, and elevated greens. Play smart and enjoy the round.

Staff was very nice. Greens were in very good condition; fairways are hurting from the dry weather; staff has everything mowed. This course has lots of interesting, challenging holes - not boring, yet fair. It will punish you if you get sloppy!

First time playing this course. Left after 9 holes. I was hoping to get my ball in the rough so I can hit out of grass. Fairways where garbage. Greens where shaggy an it was overbooked

The course has a couple of very challenging holes. Overall in good shape. Price through Golf Now was very good for value.

This course has always been a local favorite of mine and an overall great experience

The course was in great shape the staff was very friendly and the food was good.
the cost to play this course was very good I will defiantly recommend this course.

Great course for the value. The greens could be better and cut shorter. No signs for the course layout for first time players.

This is the first time I played it. From the friendly and informative greeting when I checked in, to the excellent, faily fast and true greens to the extremely long Par 5s (I played the tips--605, 583, 568 yards on the longest ones) it was a delightful coaurse with a lot of difficult approach shots. I really have to play this again, so I don't make the mistakes I did due to lack of knowledge. Great course, wish it was next door.

The round was great, the course was in great shape and the pace of play was perfect. It had been awhile since I had played there and i was pleasantly surprised to see that the course was in fantastic shape compared to what I remembered. Excellent job, we will be returning!

I have not played the course since it was under the name THE RIDGE. I was very impressed with the changes made and in particular the greens. They are great shape and roll true.

Had great weather, great staff greeting us. I understand they are under new management, congrats and good job. We will be back!
My only want, more descriptors/diagrams of the holes for distance. Due to a change in management, and course design it appears, GPS, both with phone app and dedicated device, was WAY off.

Thanks again.
