Piper Glen Golf Club
Played On 10/01/2022Lazy golf day traveled to Chatham IL
This course has changed hands over the last few years. The atmosphere in the Pro Shop and Snack Bar seemed to be we don't know you so why talk.
I was looking for a new putter but neither of the pro shop workers seemed to want to talk. Now to be honest I could have spoke up but I am the customer, not going chase a sale. Went by Shields on way home found a putter so alls good
Snack bar we had to look for the staff and then the items were very ordinary, as in selections of beer. Last time we played they had a variety but this was limited today. Mostly domesticated beer without an alternative choice like Reds Apple (they advertise it) but non found. Menu had few items still listed the staff says they don't sell any longer. Might I suggest changing the list
And what course in this world does not accept Anerican Express, well I will tell you Piper Glenn does not This is a disappointment for it was accepted my last time I played. But hey there choice but my list is short for no AMX. Sad for used like coming over here to play.
For those who care I have played from Bali to The Middle East and all over the Carribeane, AMX was always accepted, as you can tell I am partial to my Points Card.
The greens, tee boxes, fair ways were in excellent shape, the sand traps were little water logged so you don't get true flight onto the green. This was my only complaint.
Hot dogs and burgers were also above average.
This is a challenging course with water and woods all over the place.. Narrow fairways in few spots, challenging pin locations contributed to my loss of many golf balls. Maybe I can learn to stay on the fairway but not likely.

Forgot how difficult the course was. had a great round. greens very very very hard and fast.
The Club at Pine Forest
Played On 03/26/2018Nice course in town
Second time hitting the Club at Pine Forest. The staff are friendly and make you feel at home. Greens took winter hard but I am sure spring will return the to greatness. Way to much water on back 9, well for me at least, lost 11 balls out there. They are swimming with the turtles.
Not busy, guess early in season.
Was a nice 3 hours for 18.

The Club at Pine Forest
Played On 02/21/2017Excellence in the pines
Great course. I played off the gold tees and the fairways were in great shape. A misplaced shot did not destroy your round. Recommend you review the yardage book before play so the sneaky pond over the hill doesn't gobble up your ball.
Greens even wet played fast.
Other golfers were freindly.

Hello,
The course was in great condition for having all the rain this year. I left a range finder in my cart and they tracked me down the next day to let me know. I have lost a lot of stuff over the years this is the first course to call about a lost item.
The hills and trees are great even though I have a tree seeking ball i was not saddened by being lost in them over and over.
Great course, golf now hot deal makes worth the ride from Clinton. (1 hour 15 minutes)
Wolf Creek Golf Club

Course is in need of fairway repair from spring flooding hot temps then torrential rainstorms.
very challenging from the white tees for my age and health. But playing from the gold tees took some challenges away they need a middle tee about 6100 yards.
Nichols Park at Links Golf Course
Played On 09/05/2015Good local course
The Links is a nice layout. IC has golf match that day but we played in front and the pace was excellent. Course is very dry in rough but rest is nice. greens receptive to good hits and will punish you for off line ones.
Sand (I was in it all day) was good some places were hard but rake loosened it for hitting.
trees on coures but if your an average hitter they are not in the way (once again spent much time in them)
#9 if you can drive right tree line you can drive the green (group behind us did, his ball rolled right on up to the green, but as I said you got to hit over the tree line) Good luck
I got rates for hottips from golf now so was good price.

Swan Creek Golf Club
Played On 08/15/2015Diamond in the corn
This club is well off the beaten path. Was an excellent round. The 10, 11, and 12 swing is one of the best hole combinations i have played. Cart are old but usable. Pro shops little lean but has all you should need. Love the facility. Its a beautiful course nestled against a lake.

The course is fast due to lack of watering.
Sand needs attention.
But for the golf now rate it was a deal.
Piper Glen Golf Club
Played On 07/29/2014great day for golfing
My brother and I chose Piper Glen since was within 2 hours of our home. Second time here first was in drought year 2012. Love the challaging greens. Course layout is very hard for 26 handicapper like me but I still loved it. For a nice club thought they would have restaruant qulity food but was just a snack bar for lunch.
I will proudly play here again.
