Nice course but needs better marking.

One of the prettier courses you will play. Nestled into the natural habitat. Requires a little more accuracy than most courses on many holes. Personally one of my favorite to play.

Beautiful course

I played 9 holes on the Prairie course. Beautiful job of integration with natural landscape. One of the more beautiful courses I've played. Nice staff. Not too hard because it's not too long. But like any course best if you but fairways.

Great course for a tune up.

If you're looking for a 9 hole course to work on your game, this course works well. Challenging enough to test you. Short enough to not have to spend an entire day. Pace can be slower than you'd like but not too bad most of the time.

Finally! Warm weather...

Great condition for early season. Staff meetinis very cool and easy going. Great course to get practice in. Greens a bit shagy and will need to be rolled at some point. Other than that, I'm a fan.

Finally! Warm weather...

Nice course. Great value for 9 holes. I don't know how you can beat it. The course is not perfect but what course is. However, I play this course almost every day and find that it provides me with enough challenge to sharpen my game. Unfortunately, I have more sharpening to do... :-)

Nice course

I usually play the front 9 only. In regards to the front 9, great condition and a decent challenge due to trees. They just got new carts which was badly needed and a significant improvement. The only negative I have is in regards to the greens. They are in nice shape but need to be rolled. They are spongy and somewhat shaggy resulting very poor roll and feel. Other than that, very nice and fun course.

Nice course but super slow.

This course is in nice shape. However, it always seems that when you get a good deal you end up playing behind a league or event.

Tip: if you want to play when the pace is faster, holidays & weekends usually play faster if you tee off early to mid morning. And don't forget, your time is valuable. It might be worth it to pay a little more if you can play faster. Also, don't hesitate to call us for more info. Our staff is more than happy to tell you if there is an outing, league, etc. 630.231.3100 ext. 114. Thanks for your comments!

Ok if you have time. .

Decent course. Greens too soft and slow. Roll them or something. Carts are terrible. But you can't beat the value.

Nice course. Great condition. Pace if play was ok until 8th hole. Inexplicably it we backed up 3 groups. It worked out but it was strange.

This is a 9 hole course. It's in nice shape. But the wait time is ridiculous. It takes about 3 and a half hours to get through 9 holes which defeats the purpose of playing 9 holes. Also, there are never enough golf carts. Essentially you have to wait for a cart just before you tee off as people on the 9th hole finish. From start to finish you wait and wait and wait... Just not a good experience.

Nice course, very slow pace of play.

Great value for the money. Course was in nice shape. Greens were quick but a little difficult to read.

Biggest issue has been pace of play. I am finding that with GolfNow reservations you get placed behind leagues or outings and the pace of play is brutal. Not just at this course but most of the ones that I get a Hot Deal on. I guess you get what you pay for in that regard. But we were behind a 4some who was behind a 5some.... On a 90+ degree day that was brutal...

Nice course though. It always is in nice condition.

Nice course. Over booked...

I made a reservation not knowing that there was an outing in progress. I was never told. I found myself as a single between foursomes... I had to walk off after 7 holes as I felt like I was pressuring the group in front of me and frustrating the group behind me. Not enjoyable at all...

Nice course and I am sure it would have been fine had the outing not been in progress. I would have appreciated being told and frankly probably should not have been let out knowing this.

Prepare to spend some time on the beach. :-)

Nice course. Quite a bit of sand making it difficult to hit fairways at times. Greens were fast and true. Course was in nice shape. Pace of play was a bit slow but it was a beautiful picture perfect day so everyone was out.
