Slow Pace of play

Course is good but pace of play is a bit slow that day. Slow play up front kept us playing a bit slow and forced to pace and anticipate(wait) but what’s annoying is the guys behind us keep hitting their balls when we’re not done on the hole. Would’ve been nice to have a ranger around to report the incident as we were almost hit with their balls partly with their mis hits and impatience on the course.

Glendale Lakes

Glendale Lakes is a nice course. The fairways are nice and the greens are plush. The sand traps do t have sand in them. They are Illinois dirt traps like many courses . The pace of play was alright You’ll enjoy this course

Great course

The course was great. Beautiful even at 6 in the morning. Kind of stuck with wet greens that early in the morning but when they dried it, the ball rolled well. If you hit your driver 250+ yds, you’re going to need a different club off the tees for some holes which was a nice change from some courses that basically set you up to hit driver off every par 4 and 5. Guy at the clubhouse was super nice and helpful but there was an issue with an employee (maybe?) on the first tee. I had a group in front of me for the 6am tee time and I had the 6:10. There were 3 older gentlemen telling the group in front of me that they were going to tee off first. They began arguing and the older gentleman stated he worked there and he could go in front of the younger gentlemen. The younger gentleman stood his ground stating that he had paid for a tee time while the older gentleman began making threats and then drove off a couple of holes ahead. If that is an actual employee I hope he no longer works there. Other than that I loved the course and the greens keepers were fun to talk to as I played. Also, the bunkers had held some water from the rain but I managed to avoid all bunkers that day so I can’t say how well they played.

Poor Course

Course was soaked despite not having rain for days. A lot of water, mud, and patches of missing grass all throughout the course. Unhappy with the course layout as well as the course as a whole. Bar area also closed. Will not golf here again.
