New golf carts. Trimmed a lot of the overgrown trees, bushes etc. cleaned up the trash blowing around. Long time Chicago heights resident and happy to see they are moving in the right direction.

The course was in really bad condition on July 16th, 2023. There are no fairways and it looks like they haven’t been cut one single time. The rough is so long it’s hard to find your ball and hard to find your ball even on the fairways. The greens were so slow and the grass so long that I wouldn’t even call them greens, also the holes weren’t cut and were overgrown.. The guy in the pro shop had a really bad attitude and didn’t have change when I paid for my round and looked at me like that was my problem? I paid with three 20s and he said he doesn’t have change for a 20? Maybe if they kept the course in better condition, more people would come and spend more and you would have change. Would not recommend this course to anyone.

If you advertise that your golf course is open for play, then I assume that means there is still staff cleaning up the course. Couldn’t find my ball even in the fairway.

Hard to find your ball in the fairway when there’s dead grass all over.

University park has gone downhill over the years. Course was not in good condition. I understand the rain will make the course wet, but if you have signs that the course is open, I assume that they have at least gone onto the greens to clean them up. There were so many dirt mounds and goose poop on the greens that they were un puttable

I love the layout of Longwood golf course, there’s not many courses in Illinois that offer the ups and downs like this course. However when I played around on June 11, it was quite possibly the worst experience I’ve ever had golfing. None of the fairways are cut, the rough is about 4 feet high and the greens are completely burnt. Sometimes I even had trouble finding my ball in the fairway, because of how long the grass Is. The greens were absolutely burnt. To the point where I had to move my ball 5 feet to even be able to read a line.
