Shepherd's Crook is a beautiful course with challenging features. It's sculpted out of the natural geology with many elevation changes and a great combination of trees and links conditions. There are no homes on the course, so you feel like you're playing in a peaceful wilderness. Every hole is very different with some interesting challenge. Pace of play is excellent and the restaurant offers great food and great deals. It's unbelievable that the greens fees are normally $40. As a senior, I paid $29 last Friday. It's located in Zion, IL which is pretty far North from Chicago, but I've heard many people say (including me) that this course is the best value all around on the North Shore. It will challenge you, but you can also go low (which for me is shooting 90!). Have fun and play well.
