Value Play

If you are looking to play one of chicago's premier courses, Whisper Creek isn't that. However if you are searching for a course that offers value for green fees, is in good condition and you are treated well this is a good spot.

On the short list of area top courses

If someone were to claim that Makray is the top public course in the greater Chicago area I couldn't argue with them. From course conditions to overall lay-out Makray easily rivals the top courses. It's a challenging course that plays fairly tight at times and can be demanding but an unquestioned gem. It's greatest quality however, are probably the greens. In spectacular conditions they're lighting fast, very slippery but fair. If you wanted to play the top 5 courses in Chicago, Makray would make that list.

Best Public Course in Chicago radius

Having played most of Chicago's top tier public courses ThunderHawk is the cream of the crop. The course is in great shape, with fantastic undulating greens, and there is a lot of diversity within the holes as it winds thru beautiful landscape. Each one of the Par 3s, 4s, & 5s play completely different and moreover there are a handful of holes (#9, #16 & #18) that belong in the best in class for individual holes within Chicago. An absolute must play that belongs in the top tier of Chicago are golf

An absolute blast to play

As a long time chicago area golfer Ruffled Feathers will always be in the Mt Rousmore of area courses. While the conditions have deteriorated quite a bit and the course looks a bit worn in some spots one quality remains. It's the most fun lay-out around and is an absolute blast to play. A great collection of par 3s and par 5s and some beastly par 4s with a bit of target golf sprinkled in. Don't expect country club like conditions but notwithstanding that, it's a treat to play.

Very underrated gem

Great course and belongs in the conversation of top tier courses in Chicago. Although must be played from the tips if you can handle otherwise gets real short off the tee. Course maintained fairly well although didn't drain well from recent rains. A veritable must play course for Chicago golfers

Underrated course

Not in chicago's top tier of public courses but an excellent course nonetheless. Greens are well maintained and interesting and course offers a fair number of wonderfully challenging holes.
