Hello, modrog. We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review. We would love to know how we can earn those last two stars next time! Thanks for playing Executive Blue at Salt Creek Golf Club.

Nice Folks ...

... decent course, not in great shape but it's February. Still, weeds in some of the sand - and sand not well maintained. It was OK - a bit overpriced but probably about average for the area.

Fall Bargain

We only play here after they drop their greens fee - over-priced during the regular playing season with only a meager break for seniors.
The course itself is terrific - great layout, fun to play, good bar and restaurant.

It's Early ...

Although we paid a reduced rate thru GolfNow - given that the greens have been recently aerated and somewhat carelessly top-dressed, the rate should have been reduced even further. GolfNow really should note when such conditions exist - we didnt find out until we got there.

Hidden Gem

It had been 10 years since I played here last ... it is just such a long trip to get there. Utilizing a discount voucher it was a "must play" for the cost.
The course layout is really cool - some of the greens are a bit burned out and far from perfect, but generally good. We all had issues using our Garmins on the back nine re:distances - not sure why that happened but it made it tough to figure out what club to use. The sand bunkers had not been treated anytime recently - we did play the day after rain, but the sand is course and full of pebbles - could really use a refilling. All that said - this is a really good course for the money - enjoyed playing there again.

Top Notch!

Outstanding! One of the best courses - and best bang for the buck, in Illinois. Love playing here - only able to do once a year due to distance - but worth the trip.

Tougher than you think!

This course should not be underestimated. There are several challenging holes. Course was very wet so played longer than card, and it was windy, so it was a real test. Many regulars play poorly and slow things down - no ranger to quicken the pace - but it wasn't too bad - 2.5hr for 9 holes. GolfNow price makes it reasonable value for the $.

At least they are open!

First decent day to play, and Bloomingdale was open and very playable. For this early play date the greens were surprisingly good and the course reasonably dry. Not a great course, but good enough for "spring training." Price was great - a good value early and late in the season..

GREAT at reduced rate ...

Really a terrific golf course, but typically seriously over-priced. We were able to use GolfNow to get a reduced (half-price pre-paid) rate which made playing the course a bargain. I live walking- distance to this course but rarely play it unless I can find a coupon or reduced rate - it just isn't worth it at their full price.

Great deal

Usually do not play here because typically it is over-priced and pace of play very slow - but it's December, and it's $20 for seniors to walk AND you get a sandwich for lunch. Two temp greens on the West side ... what do you want for $20?
