The Nine Hole at Baker National Golf Course
Played On 09/04/2015Challenging
Because the course is carved into a nature preserve, this course is very challenging for those of us who stray a bit with the tee ball. And even though we were playing the white tees, the distance will trick you. This course plays long. Overall conditions were very good. Greens were in excellent condition, rolling very quick. Great design. Played with my son and my only complaint is that they consider Friday part of the weekend, and don't offer Junior rates before 3pm. That's a horrible policy for a park district golf course. (But my bad, it is listed on their website, I missed it when booking.)
Ridges At Sand Creek
Played On 09/03/2015New Favorite
I was very pleasantly surprised about this course. Great layout with some very scenic views of the creek meandering through the course. Conditions were very good, (and they were top dressing the tees while I was there, which wasn't an issue). Great diversity in design with some very interesting holes. The greens were ok, not very quick, but our playing partner said they are typically quick. Only real complaint was pace of play. Took 4 hours 40 minutes, the course needs to make sure they keep pace of play in the 4 hour range.
