Nice day of Couples Golf

Woodbine is a very familiar track. Always in good shape and the people and restaurant and bar are terrific.
The course can be challenging when the wind is blowing.
You can score well here, not a lot of hazards to deal with. Excellent fairway and green conditions.

This course a beautifully maintained.

I found Woodbine to be a beautiful course with undulating greens. Winding water hazards, and plays fairly long. I'm saddened to report it will be closing soon.

beautiful course

Had I gone on a day it wasn't raining, it would have been perfect. The only problem is the staff was dull in the pro shop and the ranger actually slowed down the rate of play by cutting across fairways just before we were about to tee off.

PLEASE DON'T CLOSE!

I heard that the village of Homer Glen purchased this property, and is going to close the golf course. That would be such a shame. When was the last time a golf course has been built in Illinois? And there will probably NEVER be another built the way things are going. The Chinese are buying golf courses all over the world right now, sell the course to them, take your profits and buy land somewhere else to built your municipal buildings. I'm sure there would be a large profit, and there is plenty of vacant land in that area. Had to get that off my chest.
Anyway, this is a very nice golf course, well cared for, the staff is very nice. The only problem I had, because this was my first time here was finding the next hole. There should be some signs or something. Homer Glen residents should definitely strike up a fuss about closing this golf course, it is a real asset to their community.

4 hours and only 11 holes done....

Slowest round of golf I have ever played (even for a Sunday at 1pm). I know it's slower on weekend afternoons. But, every tee box had carts bunched up. Basically played a hole and wait 5-10 mins to tee off on next hole. My only guess is they were way way overbooked. Left after 11 holes - could not take the pain anymore. Should have packed it in after 9 holes. Will not play here again.

Most (all) fairway bunkers were dried out and grass is growing in them. Beat up bunkers.

good course, better with gps.

I like the course. It's wide and open. Fairways and greens are well maintained. It will be better if carts has gps and drinking stations.

Okay course, losing its charm

It's a nice course, looks like they might be bought out or have to close after the season. Not a bad course but greens were like cement, trees around looked like they were dying. Looks like they don't want to put extra money into the course if it is closing.

Fairways and greens great, but not traps

Woodbine had the fairways and greens in great shape as usual, but the traps are not being kept up. Not even a good raking.

You get what u pay for

This is not the nicest course in the area. But it is prob the best deal in the area. Fairways and greens were in decent shape, but rock hard. Wedges bouncing off the greens. This is s good place to build confidence and get some practice in. Quite forgiving and very little trouble tee to green.
