Large Greens Open FWs with lots of Sand

Superb course for the money. Picturesque and fairly laid out. Players don't rake bunkers though (short rakes on carts often forgotten) and the lack of green ball mark repair was tragic. I would recommend staff giving every player an orientation lecture on how to take care of this great course.

Rude employee and crazy manager

I put new electric cigarette in the back of cart basket, and I asked employee. And only electric cigarette was not found, I asked him twice. Then he grab garbage basket and throw in front of me. I was so mad and yelling and kick basket. Manager, Jim, called me and ask me you grab him and yelling it. I was so embarrassed what he saying. They are so rude. So thief works there, be careful your stuff. And I was framed for grabbing his cloth, even not touch anything.
Be careful these two guys

General course experience!

The course was in very good condition except for the greens. The greens were quite rough. Also throughout the course there were not many restrooms. All in all courses very busy today but pace of play moved along very well.

Awesome day. 4:15 tee time finished without a problem. Great condition considering how dry it’s been. Nary a brown out on a fairway or green. One of my favorite public tracks in Chicago burbs!

Worth the drive from Lombard

This course is in my opinion one of the best in the Chicagoland area. The design of the course is outstanding every hole unique and challenging. Definitely worth the drive even from Lombard about 25 miles away. The course is a gem it’s a must stop if you like unique and challenging but fair golf! Highly recommend!

One of the best

One of the best public courses in Chicagoland. Pretty, interesting, excellent conditions. Plenty of challenge for the low handicapper from the tips. Friendly enough for others they pick the proper tees. Highly recommend.
