Pace of play

I live in the area and have played here several times. It is a popular spot and they take advantage of it. Tee times are 10 minutes apart and it is always backed up towards the back 9. Expect to play a 4 1/2-5 hour round. If you’re okay with that, the course itself is sweet. Solid fairways and greens with a good mix of about everything- blind shots, twists and turns alongside some easier straight holes. Bunkers are pretty bad. Matted driving range with a little putting green. Used to be $30 a round now it’s 50-70 not worth it to me but if ya catch a hot deal I’d say go for it.

Pretty good overall

Course In overall great shape but as usual the sand traps need help. I’d pay $20 more for good sand traps

Pace of play SLOW

The course is in great shape for what it is. The bunkers are clay so don't hit in them. The pace of play is insanely slow. I wish they had rangers on the course to keep the game moving.

This is a great course

Course was in surprisingly good shape for early in the season. Greens rolled great. Still some bunkers that were almost unplayable but the course is so good that you tend to overlook that.

They’ve clearly given up

Such a great course, but they’ve clearly given up trying to keep the bunkers playable. Not even one bunker was maintained or playable. Tee boxes are bad as well. Such a shame.

Course operator here. Thanks for playing George Dunne, and we appreciate your note. You mention two areas that are our highest priorities. We are attending to the bunkers this week and next, and we have set the tee boxes to heal from more intense Winter play than we've had in some time.

We are always putting maximum effort into making conditions the best they can be, so your feedback is critical to that ongoing process.

Thanks again for choosing us, and we hope to see you again soon.

This course has huge greens

Good bang for your buck. Get out early because it can be slow. Greens rolled nice. Bunkers were less then desirable.

Great layout, bunkers need some work.

The course has a great layout and is very challenging. Greens and fairways were in decent shape. There are a ton of large bunkers and plenty of water hazards. The bunkers had very little sand and lots of pebbles and rocks. Otherwise a great value.

Please fix the bunkers

Please put money into the bunkers. On every hole there are multiple bunkers. Please put good quality sand in them and make them playable. Too many bunkers not to take care of them. The course could use a new club house also.

Still early in the season

Course was pretty wet from the raid the week leading up to when I played. A lot of clean and replace happening. Course itself is fun. It isn’t just driver 9i/wedge. You have to think through shots and avoid hazards/OB.

A great layout almost wasted by poor management

This course has a great layout. The Forest Preserve, that owns this and several other courses hires companies to manage the courses. I played this course before and during Billy Casper company managed it. Casper did not do a good job. Currently managed by Indigo. The course conditions have not gotten much better. It is hard for me to drive about 1 hr to go and play this course too often.
