Great staff

I play the course on a frequent basis. Pete the head pro, Ian the assistant, along with all the staff are wonderful. The course is fun and challenging. The course gets a lot of play, but is always in great shape! Been playing here for over 20 years.

Jim gives Ives Grove Golf Links a 5 tee rating

They had a lot of rain over the last few days, stopped raining the day before. The course was spongy in a few spots, but overall it was in great shape. I love the place! A challenging course design made for an enjoyable experience. They were busy on a Sunday afternoon. The pace was a bit slow, not uncommon when you have walkers in front of groups with carts. It's an hour drive for me, but it was well worth it. I'll be back. I highly recommend the course. Everyone there was very pleasant and professional too!!!!

Nice course, friendly staff

27 holes of challenging golf. Course is relatively flat so very walkable. Riding carts are available for rent. Excellent grill with a fairly wide range of food choices. State of the art driving range including TrackMan simulators. Full bar, and usually drinks cart out on the course.

Impeccable Conditioning

I have been playing Ives Grove ever since it opened. I was stunned yesterday on the perfect conditioning of the course from the tee boxes to the fairways to the greens. Given the hot summer, it takes a lot of care and skill to keep any course properly watered. Other courses in the Kenosha and Racine area have shown the effects of budget shortfalls and brutal weather conditions. Somehow, Ives Grove is better today than I’ve seen it in years. Nice going!

Blue to Red

Course was good. Layout left some to be desired with many holes being straight away. Need to do a better job of teaching and enforcing the repair of pitch marks on the greens. Sand traps were not good - rock hard and a majority had inches of standing water. I’m not sure if weather during the week was bad and caused this

Gem of a course

The course is always in good condition. The drainage is exceptional! Big rain storm two days before playing, and its was not a mud pit. Great value!
