Very nice but difficult golf course

This course was very nice but extremely difficult. Its very tight with hazards on almost every tee shot. I liked it overall but tough to enjoy given the difficulty.

Great condition, perfect weather

For an early spring round, the course was in great shape as the greens were smooth and there were very few wet spots. Pace of play could have been a bit better but 4:30 hours isn't terrible. Would definitely recommend going here as it's a great value for a solid golf course.

Really Fun/Strategic Golf Course

I had a blast playing Mt Prospect. I was in Chicago on business and was excited to play it after reading about its template holes. This place did not disappoint. The layout was really fun and did not beat you up. You had to really position yourself well and hit quality shots. The conditions were really nice and the staff was friendly as well.

Great course, excellent value

My buddy and I booked a hot deal on a Sunday afternoon for $15 bucks. This was an unbelievable deal as the course was in great shape. If I had to be nit picky the greens were a bit slow but healthy. The pace was 4 hours and the layout was solid. Can't beat that hot deal. Definitely would be back.

Good shape, horrible design

This course is probably the least fun golf course I've ever played. It's incredibly narrow with houses lining most holes. Some holes we didn't know where the fairway was or where the hole was going. There were giant boulders literally 5 feet off the green so any slightly errant shot could hit one and kick it 50 yards away. It's a truly horrible layout. The conditions were decent as the greens were smooth albeit slow. I proudly say I'll never play this course again...once was one time too many.

Decent value course

This was my first time playing this course and for the price I'd say I'll be back. It was in decent shape and the layout was fine. There was one dumb par three where it went straight uphill. Overall it was a good value.

Beautiful Golf Course

I was excited to play Shawnee for the first time given the history and the design of the course. It did not disappoint. The course had a lot of character with the green complexes standing out the most. The greens were in great shape and rolling pretty fast. It was a very enjoyable round of golf with pace of play being 3.5 hours and good weather on a beautiful fall day. I would definitely recommend this course to others. The clubhouse/hotel is very cool as well.

Decent course, great shape

This was my first time playing this course and I was pleased with the value. It was in great shape and the greens were fantastic. There was one quirky hole, number 12, a par 5 where you couldn't hit driver. Also, a minor suggestion would be to make the left side of 12 and 15 a lateral hazard to speed up play. Overall, its a very nice course.

Good value, Perfect Conditioning

My friend and I played this course on a Wednesday afternoon. It was in excellent shape with the fairways being very tight and the greens extremely fast. The only issues I had were the pace of play and the noise. It was almost a 5 hour round and since the holes are close together with no trees, you could hear people from the next hole and gas powered carts everywhere. Other than that, it was a great course that provided a tough challenge.

Nice course, terrible pace of place

This was my first time playing this course. Overall it was a nice course and was in decent shape. The pace of play was horrendous with our round being 5 hours and 45 minutes on a Saturday mid day. Not sure it's worth spending that amount of time on the course.

Nice course in great shape

This was the first time I've played this course and I was very pleased with the value. It was in excellent condition for so early in the season. The greens were very smooth and quick. Although the round was slow (5 hours plus), I enjoyed playing the course and would go back.

It's a golf course, try mowing it.

This was my second time playing Inniscrone and I probably won't be back which is too bad because I like the design. It's a fair layout and the greens are nice. The reason I won't be back is because it wasn't fun to play a golf course that had rough that rivals most US Opens. My group consisted of very competent golfers and we were searching for balls that were literally 5 feet off the fairway almost every hole. Second, we were confronted by a very rude ranger. I get it's his job to speed up play and I agree with the premise however he could have been better about it. Also, we wouldn't be slow if we weren't looking for balls all day! Third, there were leaves all over the greens. I get it's October and that's supposed to happen but it was tedious to clean our lines on every green. It would have been good to have staff blow them off the greens on occasion.

US Open rough ??
I don't think so,,,,,
just that so many public tracts that we play do not have nice thick grass because of a lack of seeding or infertile land & lack of water,,,,

Great Golf Course

I got a hot deal on a Sunday for Woodcrest Country Club and it was so worth it. A William Flynn design, this golf course was a fantastic layout. The conditions were excellent as well. The greens were very quick and the rough was pretty tough. I wouldn't necessarily play this course at the average rate of $100+ but for $50, it was definitely worth it. The pace of play was great as well. I played in 3.5 hours.

Good golf course, some challenging holes

I played this course for 50 bucks over Fourth of July weekend which I found to be a pretty good deal. It's not an easy golf course and definitely has some tricks to it. It was in good shape.

Fun golf course, play smart

This was the first time I played this course in 10 years and it was a great treat to go back. The Bay course is short but it makes up for it with its character and tight fairways. This golf course is no pushover with the wind and the high fescue all over the place. To really score well here, playing smart and solid ball striking is necessary. I definitely recommend this golf course. It's a great time.

Good golf course, a bit tricky

The more I play this golf course, the more I like it. The greens were punched a couple weeks ago however they rolled decent. This course is pure target golf with lots of hazards that cross fairways. You can make a big number very quickly with one poor swing. The only hole I take issue with is number 18. Its quirky compared to the rest of the golf course. Overall, good golf course that is well maintained.

This course is fun to play

Good golf course with lots of hills. There are only a couple holes (2,17) that are subpar. Its always in pretty good shape. The carts were old and the brakes barely worked (which isn't good for a course with steep hills). Overall I would recommend. I like it but not in love with it.

Pretty average course. It was in decent shape, some of the greens were a bit rough. The layout didnt impress me as I found the holes meshed together too much. Other: The staff was friendly and the clubhouse was very nice.
