Great course. First 3 or 4 holes a bit intimidating for newbies to desert golf, but then fairways widen and course is very playable. Tough holes for sure but not brutal. Best track we played on our 5 course golf trip. Just kind of a trek out there from Phoenix, but pricing rewards you for time spent to get there. Great amenities, pace, layout, greens. No complaints

This is not a Phoenix desert course. And that is just fine for your golf trip 4some when you and your buddies haven’t played for months. This was our first round of the trip running to the course from the airport. Open layout alllows you to find your swing for the trip without being very penal on the scorecard. Layout was nice, greens rolled true, pace was great and price was right. Highly recommend when you need a confidence boost after getting crushed on a tougher desert course or as I said a first round on a golf trip to get you going.

Great layout Friday afternoon 3some $25 a guy to walk on a great course. Pace a bit slow but still finished in 4:15. Maybe Preserve at Oak Meadow is first in terms of value, but no need to drive far away to play a solid course for a good rate.

In playing today’s round I told my buddy, The Crook is my number 1 favorite overall value for Chicago area golf. Can pretty much always get on, pace is good, cost is usually $40 or under, course is always well kept, layout is fun and playable but still a real challenge. Yeah it’s tough to get to, there’s no range but it’s definitely worth the drive.

What can I say, just love this course. First thing you notice from looking out is how well manicured it is. Hole after hole is a a treat. Great, this along with Preserve at Oak Meadows are two I will definitely add to my regular rotation of courses.

This could be best muni course on North Shore if only the grass was in better shape. Nice layout, fast greens, bunkers in good shape, but man the fairways kill the experience. Pace of play was good too. Hope grounds crew can perform some magic on grass though
