Heritage 9

Course was firm and fast for October. Pace was typical as average players are on the 9 hole course 2.5 hrs). Good mix for par4 & par 3.’s.

Challenging Steeple Chase

Course was in very good condition. Greens receptive but firm and fast. Greens could be very difficult for 18 and over handicaps. Layout and length for all levels.

Good Challenging Test At Bowes Creek

Played late in the season. Weather felt like fall in Ireland. Front Nine had many interesting holes with a variety of challenges including water, elevations, elevated bunkered greens. Fairways wider that they looked. Back nine was much shorter and required a little more precision. All greens were challenging and you really need to be below the hole as the speed will make it difficult to stop at certain locations. Areas around the perimeter of the greens looked very worn( not sure that is the case all the time). Staff were all professional and friendly. Definitely worth a visit and I will go back.

Late Afternoon Round @ Highland Park

Decided to play last minute at HPCC (5:45pm). Price could not have been any better - $20 with a cart for 18 holes (or what ever you can finish). I played solo and actually completed 18 holes in 2 hours 20 min. A short but tight tree lined course (many irons or rescue can be hit off the tees). Greens were soft (and very slow). Tee boxes were a little uneven in spots. Great to be out playing in the evening.

Golf Club Of Illinois 6/19/16

Father's Day and it was busy. We played early. The groups in front of us were a little slow. Course was in very good condition. Lots of variety on this course. Several very long par 4's and the longest par 5 in most of Illinois at 647 from next to back set of tees. As a link style course wind is always a factor. Highly recommend (pricing is very good for this course).

Whisper Creek-Good Value

I never played at Whisper Creek. A bit far but located just off the highway. Course was in excellent condition. Lots of hole variety. Did not love the two par 5 holes requiring a "lay up" and a little visually tough to first timers. GPS was hard to read when trying to determine distances for layup. If you are off fairway or short of holes in some areas the is some punishing thick grass to contend with. Would go back and price was very good.

Steeple Chase

I have played at steeple chase for years. I play all over the northern suburbs and found the course to be in its best condition this year. Greens were consistent throughout and fairways and rough in excellent condition. There are tee boxes for all levels. Discounts to Mundelein residents a plus but would prefer it be a little more affordable for non residents ($5 less would be perfect in relation to other courses in the area). Would highly recommended playing a few times a year!

Greens Were Fully Sanded

Course conditions tee to green were excellent. Unfortunately the greens all had fresh sand on them. I understand all courses require maintenance this time of year but perhaps doing one if the two nines would better serve its patrons. Most troubling was the neither pro shop or starter even mentioned this prior to teaching the first green.

Great Layout And Tees for All Levels

While over an hour drive from my house, I always find Oak Grove a very good test of golf. You should definitely choose the proper tees. The first 2 holes are very long for the average golfer from the Blue tees 15 or over should move up). Definitely need to manage the course properly. Conditions were excellent and pace was fast. Highly reccomend this course.

Great Shape, Plays Difficult from Gold Tees

Course was in great shape. They had sanded the greens as part of maintenance which made them very fast. Was not very crowded and got finished in under 4 hours starting at 11:15am. Always challenging and great variety of holes. Highly recommend.
