No bunkers and only 2 holes with water hazards so a pretty wide open and forgiving track. Fairways and greens in good shape. There’s also no starter here which is odd so people just figure out what group they are with…

Pros: the course is in very good shape, the pace of play is brisk and the club restaurant is high quality. Carts having GPS is a big deal as well.

Cons: the guy checking people in was very stressed and was rude. When I said hello while checking in he said he was not paid enough to deal with the “a-holes that play here.” When I said I wanted to rent a golf cart he responded that I would have to pay for it. Yes, that’s why I asked to rent a cart. He went on to complain about people not wanting to pay. I get that some people may have been abusive to him but I was being polite.

Lucked out as to pace as a bunch of foursomes cancelled around my tee time. Staff is always awesome here. Note: The SAND OR PAPER WASPS are starting to nest on the fairway on #8. These guys don’t sting you but they are huge, buzz you like a B-52 Bomber and make play difficult especially when your ball settles by a nest. Hopefully they get the exterminator out and mitigate this!!!

The course is in good shape except for the bunkers which are pretty much hard pan on hotter days. They make you double up on carts which can be a pain but understandable on high volume weekends. Pace of play slow but that’s the case at most puck i courses on the weekend. Overall you can’t beat the price for 18 so you can live with the not so good stuff.

Pace of play decent for a Forest Preserve course. They’d make a killing if they sold beer. Great bang for your buck tho and the staff is nice. Course condition good as well.

Pace of play good for a Saturday. Course is in decent shape. Greens are in fine shape but there is some hard pan around the fairways. Great overall value however.

I hadn't played WP a few years and was pleasantly surprised to find well manicured fairways, greens in good shape and bunkers actually full of sand!! A major improvement from years past. The only down side of the day was manager in the pro shop who was not very pleasant and gave me a warning about being a single riding in a cart saying that I needed to share a cart. The other people in the group were not checked in (I didn't know them at all as I booked as a single) so there wasn't much I could do. Happy to comply with this request but the manager could have been nicer about it. Other than that, the staff were great.

Ridiculous pin placement - half of the pins were on steep inclines making the putty very, very tricky. Sand traps were mostly hardpan. Note that the holes here are very close and on top of one another which makes play a bit hazardous especially is people are off with their swings.

Pace is play was good for a weekend and the fairways and tee boxes are in good shape. The problem was the greens. A lot of marks and gouges. Not sure what happened as the greens are usually in good shape.

Special thanks to the two staffers working the check-in and carts They were extremely patient and professional as they adeptly handled a shortage of golf carts before our tee time. Course pace was brisk and the condition of the course was fine but the aerating of the greens caused them to be a bit bumpy.

This course was in great shape and the pace of play was phenomenal for a
Saturday afternoon. Great starter too!!!
