Decent course if you get a deal
Pace of play was good on the front but waited on every shot on the back 9. Course is narrow, greens and tee boxes are not in great shape. Do not play it out of the bunkers, no sand
Overpriced
This course is not worth the greens fees. Poor conditions, over crowded. After the round we had drinks and they were overpriced. They charged $3.00 for ICE??? We will NOT be back. There are way better courses in the area for less money.
Course has really gone down hill
This used to be my favorite Go to course. The greens are really beat up. The maintenance crew was constantly around moving and it was around noon. so annoying. Cart paths are in bad shape. Pace of play was terrible and there were no rangers keeping an eye. so sad to see this course go down hill. It used to be amazing.
Played Sunday.
Challenging course but too expensive for what you get. The Greens are not in good condition. Also no sand in the traps just hard packed dirt making them hard to play out of and no range finders in the carts. The course has some nice holes and a friendly staff and will put your golf skills to the test but there is better value for the money in Chicago.
Avoid All Bunkers
Course bunkers in terrible shape, all mud no sand. Not worth the price of playing very disappointing.
Willow Crest
Course in good shape considering the weather
Only bad parts sand traps very hard
Greens to many people not fixing ball marks
This was a shame, heard this course was great in its heyday.. it’s a resort course we get on the first tee box the starter says “there’s some standing water in the bunkers” so I’m thinking ok a little bit of water in a few bunkers... every bunker was literally flooded, so every time you hit a bunker you lose your ball. Just absolutely frustrating, I mean green side bunker and you lose a ball, that’s a joke on a golf course. Not to mention tee boxes were all jacked up with divots, greens had craters from jerks not fixing their plugs, it was bad. Then it’s hot as can be and I had to call the clubhouse to send the cart girl to use on the 8th hole, just ridiculous. Other than that staff was nice but that doesn’t justify $76 or make up for how bad of shape tees & greens were.. heard they’re going under blah blah it’s a shame when courses are this bad when you go out to play some competitive golf with a buddy.
Course Review from BigShooter
Very disappointed on how all the bunkers lacked sufficient sand in them. Most were very muddy and unplayable if your ball were to land in them. Pace of play was somewhat slow but not too bad. Tee boxes were a bit worn down.
Why do I keep playing this place?
This course is what you get when you combine a championship layout with no maintenance and lousy clientele. The bunkers are an important part of the layout, and they are all hard pan dirt. Greens are trashed because the weekend resort morons playing 5-6 hours rounds don't fix their pitch marks. Tucked pin locations on busy Saturdays make no sense when I have to short side out of dirt bunkers. All for the low low price of $80!
Pay the few dollars more and play seven bridges or preserves. Or save $30 and play at plenty of courses that are at least somewhat maintained..
Great staff, nice layout, terrible bunkers
Overall a nice course, friendly staff and good value. But there were some glaring maintenance deficiencies including bunkers that were hard as concrete.
Slow Burn
Course ownership has seemingly changed hands a few times over the years, and each year the overall course upkeep seems to decline. I like the course layout, so I play the course at least once a year with the hope that it’ll be better. Disappointed to see the greens aren’t in good shape (divots are out of control) and bunkers are pathetic (no sand). It’s like watching a decent track endure a slow burn. I hope they turn it around soon.
Agree with others overpriced for the level of course neglect
$80 for a round where the bunkers have no sand or a weed concrete med mix is unacceptable
Course itself is OK ... some long par 4s make it harder
Staff were friendly the pre pay booking is poor their end so we were late off while they sorted it and the group behind made a point of being up our rears for 5 holes
