Course was nice

The course was beautiful even during February, the only draw back is that there wasn't any drinks or food , we drove 11/2 hrs and figured we would snack on stuff from the clubhouse until the turn but there wasn't anything

A rewarding challenge!

Probably one of the tougher courses in central Illinois but the most rewarding. If you’d like to hit the ball left and right, you’ll love this place I think it’s in the best shape it’s ever been I’ve been playing here for over 20 years I would highly recommend it to anyone, the teas and greens in Fairway is were in superb shape. We played a little early so they hadn’t cut the greens yet so they were wet and slow but everything else was top notch. It’s well worth over an hour drive to come play there’s never anyone out there either. Rollinghills and tree line fairways on every hole.

Great course

Course is a challenging setup lots of dog legs in both directions, fairly large fairway but lots of trees if you miss the fairway. My only complaint is that the sand traps need work and from what I have heard they are planning on redoing them in the near future. Highly recommended. Only 36$ with a cart for 18.

quiet and seclusion

The greens were pretty smooth and running at a decent speed. Faster than they've been in years past. The course is tree-lined, with a lot of underbrush and some elevation changes. Really different for central Illinois. You better hit it straight, or bring a lot of golf balls. The front 9 is a couple shots easier. Some of the holes get crazy on the back. I enjoy the quiet and seclusion. Sometimes you see more deer than people. It's rustic and a bit run down, but I'm glad it's still there and open. Off the course, still just a trailer in a parking lot with a few drinks and snacks.

Scenic Course

Despite the rain we truely enjoyed this course. It is very scenic with lots of wildlife, hills and beautiful trees. There are several Tee boxes to choose from depending on your skill level. Someday maybe they will get a real clubhouse again? It was worth the 65 mile drive.

Great Layout

Eagle Creek is the most challenging track in central Illinois. Look past the occasional rough spot and you'll find all you can handle in challenge and shotmaking. Bring extra balls because a wayward shot will be eaten by any number of dangers.......and the views? Best around. Would be a $100+ course if the greens were a bit faster, but then putting would be an even more difficult experience. Awesome .....Awesome!!!
