Nice course

Bloomingdale golf course is a great course for a high handicapper from white tees and the blue tees can give a low handicapper a nice experience.

shorter course

early spring golf , greens had been aerated so not best condition but rest of course was in fine shape . a few interesting holes with the creek becoming involved but all in all , fairly straight forward except getting from greens to next tee boxes . could use a few more directional signage

first time play on this course

course was in excellent condition considering it bwas April 16th . Weather this day was light rain, sleet at times , and strong winds . there were only 6 other golfers that day and it was walking only so we played very fast . course is maintained very well and greens were rolled and played very fast considering wet and cold . liked the layout of the course with lots of sand traps , bunkers , and water to navigate through. will definitely play this course later in the year when weather is more golfer friendly .

early spring golf

first time playing the course . condition of course was good , considering there had been a lot of rain the previous week . pace of play was slow , considering it was not crowded . problem was there were single players walking and two somes in carts that didn't play up with each other , so waited on every tee box , there was no way to skip around the other players . don't know if they allow that normally , but definitely would have bothered me in season golf . i liked layout of the course , has some challenging holes with doglegs , water hazards , and a few belevateded tee boxes . will play again later in the year when course is in optimum condition. .

nice course out in the country

Oak Grove is a non traditional park course set on a big piece of property . There are plenty of dog legs and holes with blind shots and carry shots to make you keep attention that you cant just swing away .Fairways and greens in nice shape

If you like pin point shot accuracy , this is your course

Played here first time , should have looked at layout more closely ! Not a long course , but water came into play around 75% of holes . I have heard course has always had problems with flooding , and this year was no exception . front 9 was in nice shape , back had a few holes where ground was under repair. Greens were in good shape for winter time . Over all , an interesting course , check layout before you play . Looking forward to playing again.

Great track in the far south suburbs

I have played a few courses in this area , but this was the gem of far south suburbs . Rolling terrain , nicely cut fairways , rough cut to give you a fair shot out of , and the greens , small and sloped , but cut and rolled well.

fun course in a park setting

Due to the covid-19 pandemic , the course facility made every precaution to get golfers out on the course in a safe manner . very friendly and efficient .The course was in very good physical condition. Some interesting hole layouts , with doglegs and creek running through a few . Greens were in excellent shape , fairways cut a little long , and rough cut so you wouldn't lose a ball in it .

fun course

I am down in this area for first time from Chicago. A little colder than I had hoped for , but playing this course made up for the chill. Course has a lot of holes that have a dog leg , or set up to have you hit a shot to protect going OB . Greens are in good condition I expect for this time of year . Much nicer than Chicago in January !

great 9 hole track

The weather in Chicago area has been extremely wet . Pottawatomie is next to Fox River . As wet as it has been , this course is in excellent condition. Great layout , greens in nice shape for this time of year . Will definitely play here till course closes !

The golf course has a fairly easy layout . 5 of the greens were aerated . The pace of play was slow , we teed off on time but waited on each tee box till the last few holes . Rangers told us that there was a slow group a few holes ahead of us and they asked them to speed up play . Took just over 5 hours to play .

late February golf in Chicageland area

60 degree day end of Feb. no snow on ground . Perfect golf weather . Never played CCC , got a great price on golfnow and tried it out . Course employees were very friendly and accommodating . Course was in great shape considering time of year . Carts were allowed out , which was great , course has many elevated tees and greens . Will definitely go there again , when its warm and green . Will be a scenic course when spring arrives . Thought it was great in Feb , I know it will be that much better in real golf weather
