West Lafayette Golf & Country Club
Played On 06/08/2023Very Pleasant Round
This is an “old school” parkland, golf course that was very enjoyable to play. Two couples on a golf trip found a very playable, generally fun course in excellent shape. Tee boxes are near pushed up greens. Some longer holes but a number of risk-reward holes. You could take driver, but had to be aware of a large number of mature trees. Greens were in very good shape played at 6300 yards and took just over 4 hours
First hole and 10th hole tee lead to criss crossed fairways. Which I have not seen. Everyone was very friendly..
Orchard Valley Golf Course
Played On 04/24/2019Wonderful day and course
Course was in very good condition. Staff was terrific. Very nice and playable course with very good risk reward holes. Highly recommended.
Tanna Farms Golf Club
Played On 09/28/2016Very playable course
First time playing this course. Conditions were very good, greens were on faster side. Nice mix of shorter, strategic holes and long par 5's. Nice mix of par 3's. We played 18 in just over 3 hours on an overcast day, with few people playing.
Course runs through housing so the routing is a bit odd at times. Couple of really long walks between holes.
Nice bar for after round drink
Thank you for coming out and playing and for stopping by Boonie's after your round. Glad to see that you had a great overall experience at Tanna Farms. We hope to have you back soon!
South/East at Arrowhead Golf Club
Played On 07/30/2015Excellent condition
Course was in excellent condition. Greens were rolled and fast. Pace of play was great.... Started at 7AM and finished in 3:45 hours. Some difficult holes with some risk reward holes.
Southern Pines Golf Club
Played On 07/12/2015Great value Donald Ross course
This is an under valued Donald Ross course. Well designed. In very good condition. All handicap levels will like this course.
The infrastructure is somewhat tired. It needs a bit of TLC and it would sparkle.
We played in 3.5 hours and loved the course.
Prairie Landing
Played On 10/08/2014Beautiful and Challenging
The course was in great shape. Fairways, tee's and greens were immaculate. However, they are renovating two holes and have woven 2 holes typically used for practice into the course for a full 18 holes. The driving range is being renovated and was not useable.There is some bunker repair work going on, but that did not impact play.
It is a difficult course with favorable weather. However it was an extremely windy day which increased the challenge significantly. Also their normally fast greens were well beyond normal. I also found very few flat lies.
If you are looking for a challenging course with great conditions, Prairie Landing is all that you can ask for. I have played this course about 20 times over the years and always enjoy the test.
St. Andrews Golf & Country Club - Joe Jemsek Course
Played On 09/03/2014Fun, Playable
This is a very good golf course especially for a foursome that has different ability levels. The course was in very good shape. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Par 3's all played long - 3 of them were in the 180-190 range, one was 240. A few of the par 4's were on the shorter side so there is a nice balance. The greens were in great shape. Be careful on holes 17 and 18 as there is water in play on both-second shot on 17 and the drive on 18 bring water into play.
Two downsides were the beverage cart was only found one time, although there is a half way house that you hit twice. Also the carts and GPS have a definite "old school" feel to them.
All in all it was a beautiful day, great golf and played 18 in 3.5 hours.
Cantigny Golf - Lakeside/Hillside
Played On 08/14/2014Beautiful and challenging
Cantigny golf course is a beautiful and challenging course. It looks like a much older course than it actually is (25 years old this year) It is a beautiful blend of holes with outstanding greens. It is not a brutally hard course, but one where you need to think about each shot and execute well. We played the Lakeside/Hillside combination. Pace of play was excellent - finished in 4 hours.
The staff here is terrific and the restaurant was very good as well. I highly recommend playing here.
Orchard Valley Golf Course
Played On 07/02/2014Nicely balanced course
By that I mean there is a nice flow of risk/reward holes, difficult holes. I enjoy this layout...it forces you to think. The course was in good shape, bunkers were being worked on. They are working on the greens, but they were hit fairly hard this winter. They are coming back, but have a ways to go. The people running the course could not be nicer. Food and beverage after the round was terrific.....great chef.
This is a fun, playable course that a group with various handicaps can play and enjoy.
Woodside/Valley View at Weatherwax Golf Course
Played On 06/22/2014Excellent facility and golf course
This complex has four nines. We played the Valley View and Highlands nines. Both were in good shape. I really enjoy these courses as they offer a mix of holes, long, short, uphill, downhill; all making you think about every shot. Yes, I like strategic courses that make you think.
The management team was very welcoming and friendly. The starter, Bob, was a great guy. Pace of play was tremendous. we played in 3.5 hours on a Sunday. If you are in the area, give Weatherwax a try. I believe you will like playing here.
Fox Bend Golf Course
Played On 05/28/2014Solid course
This is a solid golf course at a very fair price. the course suffered some winter damage, especially on some of the greens (bare spots, bumpy in places). It is a fun course to play, not killer hard, but not a pitch and putt either. The staff was terrific....very helpful, friendly, made you feel very welcome. I would play this course again
Fox Prairie Golf Club - The East/West Course
Played On 08/01/2013Good course, great value
Played on the afternoon of August 1, 2013. Course was in good condition, dry, fast fairways and greens that were in good conditions and were quick. Course is parkland style with trees on or near fairways. Very playable course for all levels of players. Played in less than 4 hours. 3 of the par 3's played about the same distance,175 yards, which is somewhat annoying, but other than that I would recommend playing.
Springbrook Golf Course
Played On 7/10/2013Terrific park district course
If you are looking for a highly difficult, high end, expensive golf experience, this is not the course for you. If you are looking for a well maintained, playable, fun golf course, with friendly personnel at a great price --- then you have found your course!
Course was in good shape - even after 2 inches of rain the previous day. Some great risk reward holes and a couple of stout holes as well.

Thanks for the review. Come back and play again soon!
Seven Bridges Golf Club
Played On 7/02/2013July 2, 2013 Seven Bridges
Seven Bridges is the tale of two nine's and one maintenance issue. The front nine starts out with an uphill par 5. This is my favorite nine with a mix of difficult 1,7,8,9 and strategic holes 2.4 and 5.The greens were quick, in great shape and putted well. The back nine is a bit quirky....couple of the holes have odd angles to play.
The one maintenance issue was that some of the bunkers did not have much, or seemingly any, sand in the bottoms. You got to clay pretty quick.
Overall the course was in very good shape. The staff and facilities are excellent. I will be happy to go back and play this course soon.
Canyon Springs Golf Club
Played On 2/24/2013Great day on a fine golf course.
I am not sure you will find friendlier people running a golf course - from the gentlemen at the bag drop, in the pro shop, the starter and marshal were all welcoming and terrific. Two Texas longhorns show you the way to the first tee! My friend and I were paired with a terrific couple (Bruce / Jan) and we had a great round. The course was very playable, some tough holes, some nice risk / reward holes. The greens were in excellent shape and for a late February day the overall course was in good shape. I recommend this course.
La Cantera Golf Club
Played On 2/23/2013Nice course, but.......
Played this course on a Saturday morning. I had played the Palmer course the day before and just preferred the Palmer course much better. The course was in good shape, beautiful venue, but I just found the course to be average.
La Cantera Resort - The Palmer Course
Played On 2/22/2013Great course........
The clubhouse facility is gorgeous. The golf course matches the clubhouse. I really enjoyed the design. The course makes you think, plan, hit all kinds of shots. Greens were in good shape, very puttable. I would highly recommend playing this course.
Only odd thing was that you could not buy food at the clubhouse after the round......
Hill Country Golf Club - Lakes/Creeks
Played On 2/21/2013Good price for a fair course.
Played course February 21. Course was in decent shape, greens were fair - some had some bare spots. Fun course to play though with mix of solid golf holes, strategic par 4's, wide fairways. Pace of play was good. Beverage cart service but no restaurant open for an after round beer/drink which seemed very odd for a Hyatt Hotel of all places.
Thanks for your review. We are delighted our staff and course met all your expectations. Hope to see you again soon!
