Lincoln Oaks Golf Course
Played On 07/20/2023ALWAYS FUN AT LINCOLN OAKS
Always a pleasure to play at Lincoln Oaks. People who play here simply love golf. Nothing fancy about their love for the game. But it starts at ownership....and Mark loves the game. My only concern is that I wish some of the tee boxes were fixed more often. It can sometimes be difficult to find a good setup. Course layout is great. Not a fun course when it rains 🙁. The free range balls make up for any shortcomings.
River Oaks Golf Course
Played On 06/12/2023Changes Needed Badly
Overall I have nothing against this course. It used to be a very nice course that is both challenging and beautiful. I love the great amounts of water it holds. My challenge is its current layout with the closing of Hole #12. It makes for a logistical and statistical nightmare....esp if you're using electronic technology to score and keep track of your golf game. Fix the bridge or contact the GPS apps to update your course (which is probably the more practical thing to do).
Until those changes occur, unfortunately I probably won't be back. And this is probably the closest course to my home.
I also don't understand why municipal courses charge extensively more than private or public courses do for golf carts ($18 vs $10 on average).
However the staff was extremely engaging and friendly but the course needs some TLC. A lot of unfixed divots in fairways. Overall I give it a 3 rating and that's being kind because the staff was so great.
Indian Ridge Country Club
Played On 06/05/2023Dusty but good
Haven't been to this course in a while but it didn't disappoint. Still very dusty and a bit dry but they had the sprinklers on to hydrate. This didn't always make for dry fairway shots but I appreciate the effort. Fairways were good, greens were nice and I shot the best round in my golfing career. So I'm not complaining. Good to be back.
Lost Marsh Golf Course
Played On 04/04/2023Challenging but fun
Wanted to give up after the 4th hole 🤦🏾♂️, but kept going. The slopes and bad lies can bring you to your knees, but the challenge of hitting them straight was intriguing. Considering its reputation, I only lost about 5 or 6 balls...which ain't bad for a novice golfer. Still was able to par and hit for par a few times. Beautiful layout which I'm sure gets even more beautiful as the season progresses. The wind was crazy, but you can actually score well on this course. Despite the weather having been wet lately the fairways were fairly good. My balls actually got some bounce which is an attestment to the draining of the course. Can't wait to return.

Played On 09/26/2022SO MUCH BETTER
So glad to see this course make improvements in its groundskeeping. The fairways were nice and the rough was manageable. Glad to see such a beautiful course return to some dignity. Keep up the good work.
Calumet Country Club
Played On 05/11/2022Great course but Cut the Grass!!
Always a great course but the grass in the rough is ROUGH!! Lost way to many balls. More than usual. If this course is going to stay as beautiful as it's been, then cutting the grass is essential. I hate to give a negative review but it was extremely disappointing to have such a negative experience.
The Meadows Golf Club of Blue Island
Played On 04/21/2022Early Season Golf
I always enjoy golfing at the Meadows. The season is still early but the course was in decent condition. The fairways were nice and the greens were decent. I had a great putting day even though it had just rained the night before. Outside of puddles on the cart path, this course does well with draining water. A recommended course for the day after rain.
Hello and thank you for your review! We're delighted you enjoyed your round, but we strive for a 5-star rating, so we'd love the chance to improve upon this visit. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing The Meadows Golf Club of Blue Island!
Cardinal Creek Golf Course - South/Center
Played On 04/10/2022Wet course but beautiful
Conditions were a bit rough because of recent rainy weather but I thoroughly enjoyed the layout and pace. Even with delays in front of we still finished in less than 4 hours with 4 golfers. Looking forward to playing in better conditions.
Deer Creek Golf Club
Played On 03/16/2022Early Season Golf
The course is much better than it was last week. Grounds are firmer and greens are faster. Looking forward to how it will look later in the season. Shared a great round of golf with good friends.
Wicker Memorial Park Golf Course
Played On 09/24/2021The Club at Emerald Hills
Played On 08/20/2021Challenging but fun
Great course, beautiful layout, very challenging. Not a course for the faint of heart. And definitely not for novice players like myself. Not very forgiving but I enjoyed the challenge. Lots of lizards on hole 17. But as a visitor to South Florida I probably should have chosen a more level appropriate course. Even the staff members said they wouldn't play there as beginners or intermediate players. And they play for free. But I enjoyed my experience.
Calumet Country Club
Played On 08/10/2021Challenging Course
Challenging but fun. One has to be a precise golfer to master this one. Lots of bunkers and long par 3s. But it challenges every club in your bag. I hope they keep this course going amidst the rumors. It is a beautiful place to play golf.
Deer Creek Golf Club
Played On 07/27/2021Beautiful Course
Beautiful course, great layout and challenging. The only thing I wasn't happy with is they chose to run the sprinkler system while we played making it difficult to navigate around times. The wet grounds also gave little action to ballls hit in the fairways. Other than that I was pleased with the course.
Fox Run Golf Course
Played On 06/12/2021Mosquito infested course. Probably could have gotten a better score if I didn't have to fight off so many mosquitoes. They double booked a tournament at the same time as my tee time which proved to be a problem because it was shotgun. I started 30 minutes prior but the groups were all over the course. They were nice enough to allow me to play through.
Victoria Golf Course
Played On 03/29/2021The Worst Golf Course in America
As my title suggests this could quite possibly be the worst golf course in North America. The fairways are dry, rocky, sandy and arid making hitting a decent shot almost impossible. The dust developed from wind and carts makes it hazardous to your eyes. Other than practicing in its driving range, chipping green or putting green, I wouldn't recommend this course to anyone. Not even my very worst enemy.
Positives. Not many. The staff was friendly and the layout was decent. The greens played beautifully if you could get there. Hit a good green shot and it was likely to be in or close to the hole. The course needs water, lots of it. There were no water hazards indicating the property is on a very dry piece of real estate. I would likely never return to this course. Even for Free!!
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve, and we are working towards getting things up to par. Thank you for playing The Links at Victoria Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon.
The Meadows Golf Club of Blue Island
Played On 09/21/2020Great course
Starting with the friendly staff and ease of check in, I've been very pleased with my visits. Carts are always ready, clean and in great condition. The course is aesthetically beautiful and the design is great for a beginner like me.
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing The Meadows Golf Club of Blue Island.

Fountain Hills Golf Club
Played On 11/19/2020Can do better
Overall the course was okay. There was no warmth from the staff and that resonated heavily with me. Very short, kirt and stoic. Though I enjoyed the golfers I were paired with the unfriendliness of the staff was enough to declare I'll never return. Too many golf courses out here to endure unpleasant behavior. ¹
