Great Course
Excellent course, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful especially in the restaurant. Would have given five stars, but the condition of the fairways was just brutal. After all the rain they received I was surprised they were letting people play some of those holes as they had entire fairways roped off. I would highly recommend this course, the greens were in very good condition for this time of the year. Overall , very satisfied with my round here.
Not a great start to the year
The course was in rough shape. It was packed and people were not being pushed to keep moving. I saw a single walker chipping 7balls on a green and putting the all in while a foursome waited. Some of the holes were packed 3 foursomes deep. Almost 6 hours to golf 18 and waited on every whole. As for the shape of the course, well it was not worth 37 per person.
duh
the course was available to play and the cost was ok
the person in the bar area was not pleasant or even reasonably friendly
things could be be much better
Had to start off of hole 10
Not sure why a 7:30 tee time had to start off of hole ten that day, but when we got to the turn there was a back up on Hole one. Very disappointing to have to wait, and for what reason to start off of ten in the morning? Overall this course is in okay shape with some overwatering issues, and standing water. Okay layout, but short. Probably will go back in the fall with the coupon, but perhaps not. I'm not sure yet.
somebody help me
bar lady was crabby
air conditioned clubhouse what?
course condition was sadly lacking
didn't expect much and got less
guy in the pro shop and waitress were nice
Good mix of holes
Rum River Hills is a fun golf course. The staff is friendly and helpful. It’s not a long course, but it is very strategic. There are places you just can’t afford to end up in. There are a few forced carries. It was a very fun day.
Good Value, unfriendly staff
I Have played course several times a year. It's a pleasant course, not particular difficult and within a reasonable distance of the Northwest suburbs.
I will not play again because of the attitude of the staff against GolfNow members. The staff member was quite explicit in saying that they do not welcome golf now members. Especially, the hot deal. I tried to explain to him that this is a marketing/advertising'expense to the course and if they don't want golf now members to reserve tee times they shouldn't participate. Although the course is convenient and the prices are generally quite fair, I will not book a tee time there again. With the state of golf and the declining demographics I think their attitude is quite shortsighted.
Worth it on Hot Deals
This course caught my eye because of the low cost to play on GolfNow. The course is in rough shape in some areas, especially if you’re in a riding cart. I did enjoy the layout of the course and it was challenging on certain holes. I definitely think this course is worth it and will be going back. I do hope that the conditions of the course improve because it has potential!
Horrible experience
I booked a 2 person tee time this past Sunday at 305, when we got there, no carts were available. They said they had 60 carts on the course. They asked if we were going to ride and we said yes, they moaned and groaned as if it was our fault we bought a tee time with a cart. After waiting 10 minutes for a cart, we were able to tee off, about 20 minutes late after having to wait for other groups. The pace was SO slow, we played NINE holes in 3 hours!! There were 4somes that split into 2somes once they started. We kindly asked them to join up to make the pace better for everyone but there was no ranger checking for pace of play. There would be 3 groups waiting at tee boxes to play, it was ridiculous. After finishing 9, we asked if we could get a rain check for the last 9. The employee said “well this is actually a twilight rate, so you get what you pay for. And, you could probably still finish before dark..” We told him this was unacceptable and that it states in their policy that 9 holes should take MAX 2 hours and 15 min. He tried to say it was the first weekend and nice weather but that is by far the worst and slowest round I have ever played and the staff, besides the cart girls, were extremely rude. They did give us a free 18 (but must purchase cart coupon) after we refused to not get some sort of refund.
Check for Senior Day!!
Make sure you call ahead and see if there are senior leagues going on. I was stuck behind a bunch of 5somes. Most courses do not let 5somes play but this one does. I finished to first 9 in 1 hour..no seniors..the back 9 took me over 3 hours to complete.

Decent Course
I have not played this course for over 13 years. Was pleasantly surprised to see it in decent shape after all this time. It has a few gimmick holes..but overall a decent track to play.
