Simple and fun
Guaranteed good time for the amateur golfer. May not be perfect condition or the most exciting layout. Greens and fairways are slow and need cut down a bit. Sand traps are a bit silly. But you can’t beat the value for a champ size course the area. It keeps me coming back.
Too Packed
They don’t use tee times. They just let everyone who shows up play. Way too busy.
Good time, very wet
Cart path only and for good reason. Had a decent amount of rain prior to going. Regardless, the fairways and greens were in decent shape. We knew what to expect and had a good time.
Will definitely go back to this course.
Slow and Forgettable
The course was ok, all things considered. It was in adequate shape but it’s mostly a straight forward course without much uniqueness. I will point out the extremely slow pace of play and the total failure of the course marshal to get groups moving along. Which really ruined an otherwise nice day.
Not ready
The rain appears to have made it hard to have the course ready. Fairways and rough are still saturated
nice surprise
I have not played here in 15 years and was pleasantly surprised. The course was in nice condition..but we tee'd off behind 4 newbies that were pitiful. Once they let us pass them on the third tee, pace of play was better, but we still replayed 3 holes during the round to avoid sitting and waiting.
Greens were nice, fairways nice as well. For a muni, I enjoyed it.
Course conditions
The greens for being this late in the season were very well kept. The only trouble we had was the leaves on the tree lines hiding the golf ball. Very hard to find. Other then that fairways were good and cut perfect.
Leaves, leaves and more leaves
Great course to play and challenging. Like playing it. Just don't play in the fall.
Leaves on the course make it difficult , if not impossible, to find balls and slows down play
Pasture
We lost a total of 8 balls in the "fairway" cause it hadn't been cut in what seemed like weeks. When we got there we couldn't hit balls cause they were cutting the range, but every "fairway" was average rough length. Probably would have been better use of resources to actual cut the course. Around every green was standing water cause they punched the greens and were obviously watering them to try and get everything to grow. Then after playing 9, we had 2 new 3somes in front of us cause they sent people out on the back.
Layout is great, but the Fairways are not!
First time out this year at Wicker Park. Memories are great but today the course was not what we expected. The fairways were like the first cut of the rough. And the rough was extremely thick. Balls were hard to find and sometimes lost after.just rolling off the fairway. We know it rained a lot but to only see half your ball in the middle of the fairway is not fair. Will try them again next season.
Frustrating
It was raining but the course was open and workers said we couldn’t get a rain check because we booked through Golf Now. Workers were rude.
I tried calling golf now and was on hold for 15 minutes before I gave up. We tried to play in the rain for a while since we couldn’t get a refund but it sucked so we quit early.
Bad experience overall with the Course and Golf Now
Sand traps
I was disappointed with the sand traps. They had no sand and were hard mud.
6:30hr Round
Longest Round I have ever played. Everyone was on top of one another. Awful time.
Grass cut , but not picked up
I very disappointed with the fringe. The grass had been mowed but not collected. This made it difficult to play and many of my balls were lost.
