Reviews
Great Early Season Condition
We played on the first warm day there's been for the last2-3 weeks and were very pleased with the condition of the course. They obviously have been out there working on their spring cleanup and mowing so the fairway and greens were pretty good. The staff was very helpful I think they appreciated our business. If you haven't played here consider giving them a try.
Play this course
The greens were a little shaggy but it has rained a lot the past week so i wouldn't hold that against. A nice course that deserves more patronage
Great Course
Cardinal Creek has come along way since the previous owners. New owners have brought life back to this gem in Beecher. Staff is very friendly and I would highly recommend this golf course to anyone of my friends, family, and colleagues.
Nice place to play
My threesome had a great day . The staff was nice and friendly. WE enjoyed the whole experience.
Course is a good course to work in your game.
The course is OK. Hard to tell fairways from rest of course at times. Greens tend to be small. The rough is high and often uncut.
Terrible course management
It was very wet, which they cannot help, but they had not mowed the Greens in days. It was like putting on teebox. The tees were longer than fairways. They sent me off Center and had they sent me North first, I would have not run into a league. Bad experience.
Nice day
Everything at this course was great. The pace of play (3:40) was good probably because it was very hot and the course wasn't crowded. The conditions were surprisingly good as this is the first season for this course. Greens rolled smooth and true. We totally enjoyed our day and will come back again.
Glad they re-opened
The course was in decent shape and pace of play was great! Looking forward to going back!
The pace of play was great!
Enjoyed my round , however, rough areas (due to rain) made it difficult at times to find my ball.

Cardinal Creek
Enjoyed playing Cardinal Creek yesterday! Nice course, friendly staff, great value!
First time played
This was a great value. Greens in excellent shape for the very dry conditions.
Decently Maintained and nice greens
Thanks GolfNow for the $11 hot deal ($15 with fees) at Cardinal Creek. Played the Center/South nines and found them to be in just fine of shape - sure there's clover in the fairways and the lack of rain has the course playing extremely hard and fast. Most courses are playing hard/fast in Chicago this year anyway. I play golf all over Chicago land and overall I'd give this place 3.75 stars....downgrading due to lack of range and the fairways just grass/clover/etc. Our group had a real nice time and enjoyed a Sunday round in less than 3 hours teeing off after 11am. Amazing. The Center nine has 3 par 5's in a row....a first for me but kind of neat as well as 3 par threes of varying length. The South nine has a really strong par 5 and some other pretty decent holes. Found this to be a very decent/fun track to play. Very enjoyable. Traps were okay and the greens were just fine.....rolling well and challenging. The folks in the clubhouse, cart girl, maintenance staff were all extremely nice/welcoming and very friendly. Fantastic. I'll go back to Cardinal Creek again prior to the end of the season for certain!
Hidden gem.
Took advantage of the hot deal on Independence day with a buddy. Course was fast and dry. New management explained that a lot of upgrades are coming. Need better signage for the direction to holes because of the 3 courses there.
good golf for the price
small greens. fairways not well manicured but can't beat it for under 30 bucks. 200, 150, 100 yard markers on most if not all holes. great hotdog at turn with awesome condiment spread.
Good course for new or casual players
This course is not too challenging, (as long as you hit em straight), but there are lots of trees that errant shots will find. They need to put some water coolers out, or at least inform players to take water with them. Luckily we did have a bottle of water, or we would have been parched !
Great Course for the Value
Even though this course is in need of some maintenance it is still always a great play. Not much you can do about the lack of water other than water,bull but there is only so much you can do when it's 80-90 degrees on a daily basis and no rain. I expect that when I go back this fall or next spring that it will be in much better condition. Still a an overall 4. Other reviews that state this place is a cow pasture are an injustice to this course. It is by no means a CC that is privately funded and can be in peak conditions year round. If you enjoy a round of golf where the course will challenge you, and the greens roll true then this is your place. Played early in the morning and watched them hand water and hand roll the greens as we played. Keep up the good work Cardinal Creek.
Poor conditions
Made a drive out here because I have read great reviews for this course and after playing a round I was very disappointed. The entire round it was like hitting off of dirt. The ground was hard as can be. There were weeds all over the course and it was extremely difficult to tell the difference between the fairway and rough. The greens and bunkers were the only things in good condition. I feel that this course could be very good if they took care of the fairways and rough as well as the greens and bunkers.
Good course layout with 3 different nine options, but I would not be coming back here unless the course was in better condition.
just add water
Fairways dried out and hard as a brick. Nice place all in all otherwise.
