Fantastic Course
Got to play here last weekend and let me say—phenomenal course. Beautiful and challenging with great conditions even into the late fall! I’ve played at a number of courses around NWI including LBCC, SCCC, and a few other private clubs and this course stands up right with them!

Fantastic track out in farm country
Very nicely maintained golf course. Enjoyed the beautiful day, if played fro the proper tees there are plenty of birdie and par opportunities.
Greens rolled fast and true. Bunkers had plenty of and and plenty of rakes to keep them nice.
Overall very nice day.

It’s a good time but……
Great course for a great price but if you play there you might want to smuggle your own drinks in. Everything is expensive even water is 3$ And you might want to bring a lot because the pace of play is horrible our round today was almost 6 hours !!!! But for the money it is hard to beat but they need to manage slow play better!
