Golfer Reviews
Nice Links Course
One of the few links style courses in northern Illinois. Nice welcome change of pace from other traditional courses. I would play it again.
Fun course
The Crook is a fun place to play with generous fairways, but challenging greens with well placed fairway bunkers. It’s a parkland design, which means it’s a mix of links with municipal course style. One of the best courses in the area for the value. Greens and fairways well maintained as well.
Enjoyed another round at the crook!

Great Course
I am a regular at the course and I’ve always enjoyed my round. The course is maintained in excellent condition and it offers tee boxes to challenge all, levels of golfers. Pace of play is always very good. On average you can complete 18 in 4 hours to 4.5 max 99% of the time. Clubhouse has added a very nice patio with great views of 9 & 18 as well as a few of the back nine holes. Food is good with sufficient choices if you want to eat during or after a round. Nice selection of beers and other beverages as well. It’s just a nice place to play a friendly round of golf at a reasonable price. I’ve played Bonnie Brook and Thunderhawk nearby and while both are nice, neither beats the layout at the Crook. If you haven’t played it and enjoy golf your missing out. Give it a try.

What a great course but it’s basically In Wisconsin.
It’s an awesome golf course. Lots of trouble to be found within Errant shot. Lots of forest carries off the Teebox and lots of fast grade greens. Even with 5 inches of rain yesterday we still got to have carts off the path. It was a great round we didn’t have to wait at all, I would definitely play it again
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Shepherd's Crook Golf Course.

Thanks for the amazing review and for choosing Shepherd's Crook Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon!
Never Disappointes
I try to get here once a year because I got my only ace on #11! This is a legit links style course with tall fescue and very undulating greens.
Thanks for the amazing review and for choosing Shepherd's Crook Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon!
Excellent course, even under severe drought
I have played this course many times and it is always extremely well maintained. The fairways are closely mown and the greens are fast and true. Southeast Wisconsin has been under severe drought conditions for the last few weeks and the course was affected today, like all courses in the area. Even given that it was still played very well and the greens were still great. There is no driving range but the clubhouse is very nice, the food and beverages are good, and they recently completed work on a huge addition to their outdoor patio, which is a wonderful place to enjoy a beverage and watch the golfers play up to the greens on numbers 9 and 18...

LOVE THIS PLACE
This is by far one of my favorite courses in Illinois. 61 mile drive prevents me from playing there more, but I wish I could. Pace was great, the rangers could not be nicer and the course layout is so much fun.
If you have not played it, don't think twice, play!
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Shepherd's Crook Golf Course.
