This course needs work…

Took my wife out for 9 holes per her request. Overall conditions , from tee boxes to fairways to greens, all need attention. Would not play again.

Overall, a decent track…..

…but the WORST tee boxes I’ve ever seen. Good fairways, decent greens. Good length for a 9 holer. Good course for a warm up round

Wacky layout

The most confusing course layout ever. VERY easy to find out you’re playing the wrong holes. Halfway house always closed. 2 sand traps total on course.
Screwy course

Tough. Course for a first round of the season

Course was in nice condition. Pace of play was great. Two of the toughest finishing holes in Chicagoland on nine and 18. All around, a fun experience, and a humbling one as well.

Great Condition for April

THIS IS A COURSE THAT WILL CHALLENGE YOUR GAME. Several of the toughest holes you will ever play are here, but it’s worth it (and the ensuing frustration) when you hit the 19th hole. Be forewarned….this is NOT a course for really high handicappers….

Short, but SWEET

Better condition than most area courses. Nice greens and traps. DONT be fooled by the short yardage… course has a lot of great holes and plenty of trouble if you don’t play smart

HORRIBLE FAIRWAYS. APPROACHES AROUND GREENS HORRIBLE.

Not worth the price, even when discounted. Unless Dunedin commits to a rebuild, they should just close this course.

Needs a LOT of work

Greens good. Fairways AWFUL. Thin lies, and terrible chipping conditions on approaches to greens. Nice layout, wonderful history and provenance, but will only be fixed by a year long closure to allow for conditions to improve. The rough is nonexistent……. STOP RUNNING FAIRWAYS TO THE WIDEST POINT…..
And for snowbirders, their seasonal membership is ridiculously expensive. This is NOT a golf club worth the expense.

Nothing special….

Arrived to find….SURPRISE!…..a ladies outing was holding our booked tee time back an hour….They claim it was a GolfNow error….it wasn’t. The course management COMPLETELY FORGOT THAT A LADIES OUTING WAS BOOKED……staff was unaware about the outing as well, and had to scramble to get the outing off.
Told the greens rolled a 12….maybe a 10, but not a 12 . Tee boxes need work….flat footing hard to find on many.
3/5 …wouldn’t play again

Short and sporty

Driver 5 iron, driver 7 iron, driver something all day long. Only problem?????.....those pesky pot bunkers!!! Greens are well protected, and require accurate irons into them, or you WILL pay the price. Greens are fair and in good condition. Dandelions made my yellow Calloways a little difficult to find on an errant shot, but overall I am anxious for another go at it.

Great shape early!

I love this course WHEN we get a GolfNow price at a reasonable time. It’s a sporty layout that uses every club in your bag, but very fair. Sand traps need a little work, but otherwise greens and fairways were in great shape. And we can’t say enough about their staff...always welcoming and friendly, and the best bartenders anywhere.

Don’t Waste Your Time

This course needs character. The layout is flat, straight, and certainly not befitting an Arthur Hills signature. The fairways were my biggest complaint however. Cut like they were greens with sandy hardpack that could break your wrists. The rough was generally your best lie, especially around the greens.
Cannot recommend this track.
