Beautiful Course

This is an awesome course and highly recommend it! I would suggest to play other courses to warm up your game before playing here. It’s a challenging course which I love and some holes are very forgiving as well. Greens fairways and roughs are in great shape. Some areas can be cut deeper though.

Walkers slowed pace

It was extremely hot and humid-there was a 4some 2 groups in front of us that were walking and carrying while I applaud their fortitude the backed up the rest of us-The course was in great shape -greens were fabulous--Wished the cart person had come out a bit earlier due to heat-and not being able to have water on course due to virus.-Will definitely be back soon....

Perfect Golf Day

I drove 2 hours to play The Sanctuary today and it was well worth the drive. Beautiful day and golf course. My son lives in New Lenox and I try to get over and play several times during the summer with him but had not been able to play it this summer yet. It was well worth the drive. Excellent golf course and great day.

Nice course

The course was very nice. They need a ranger to monitor pace of play. One slow foursome held up everyone behind them.
