Course has gone through some changes lately. Attempts to make the course more playable are working. Of course the last things fixed will be the greens and sandtraps. Avoid traps at all costs. Wednesday $15 dollars to walk is cheap and good exercise going up and down the hills. |

Played many courses in Cook County and this is the best course. Very challenging and is for the serious golfer only. The staff is great and helpful. |

One other thing, good luck finding someone that speaks english there. Really difficult asking the staff for something when they have no clue what you are saying. |

Have played this course more than any other. It could be in a lot better shape. The owner is a vile woman, so avoid her at all cost. Fun course to play but the price is really getting outrageous. The owner will not put any money into it. The clubhouse reeks. |

One word. Dump. |

Played in mid-April, 2003 and course was in good shape. Tee boxes, fairways, and greens all in good condition. Huge trees that line the fairways account for the lack of rough... |

Very tight fairways and blind holes. Poorly maintained, watch out for long freight trains, club house is a smelly dump. |

best course from appoarch to green for an high handicap player. Watch out for the un even lies and blind approach and tee shots. With the tree lined fairways you have to hit the ball straight. If you do not have control your drive hit 3 wood off most of the tees. Most difficult holes #7,13,14, and 15. |

A crusty clubhouse and starter add to the tradition of this old beast. Greens are generally small,slow,and sick which puts a premium on accurate approach shots. Don't get frazzled when your pulling driver on the Par 3 9th and unless you are capable of hitting a 320yd hook, take your snowman, enjoy the bumps, and skip the 14th. |

Perhaps the finest golf value in the Chicago area. Don't hit driver on #15, putt from above the hole on #5, or forget to have a sweet lemonade at the turn. |

Very challenging for all levels, unique to its self evergreen offers huge trees that are abundantly in fairways. Course plays long and the blind shots on some par 4's are killers. |
Golfer: Golf Man Date: 2002-02-06 Rating: |
Too expensive for the lack of care and maintenance on the course. People pay because it is convenient. Greens are very slow and not cut or regularly maintained. Fairways are a shorter version of the rough, complete with weeds and dandelions. It is a shame because with the proper upkeep and effort this course could be one of the finest in Chicago. |

great bargan. could not believe a course was in such excellent condition this late in the year. extremely challenging holes on the back side, do not even be foolish enough to try a driver on most of them. can't wait to get back. |
