| Great greens, old school design and close in not 30+ minutes away. Pace was good 4:15 at 11:00 on Sat. in summer! Better than the cookie cutter \_waterparks\_ my buddies usually play and you can walk too on weekends. |

| I love this course it is maintained like a country club with a very limited crew. The greens are awesome. |

| Really couldn_t be more crowded - roll your approach just off the ninth green and you roll right into the starter. Everything right on top of each other, and S-L-O-W. Too pricey, the definition of marginal (or worse) |

| This course is resident friendly, but a rip-off for non-residents. The people who work here are either 17 or 75. Pace can be aweful. 5 hour rounds are common-place. The course is old-school- short and tight and rather fun to play. But nothing that will challenge a decent player. Kudos to the super who keeps it in great condition. M.P. would be recommended if not for its flaws - value, bad customer service, and pace. Nice course though. |

| Very well maintained old neighborhood course. Country club quality at park district rates. Don't let the short yardage fool you. This course is extremely tight with difficult protected greens. The mature tree lines can be unforgiving. If you don't hit em straight, you probably won't have a very good time. |

| Real nice old-fashioned golf course. Small undulating greens and tight layout makes for a different golf experience. Like going through a time warp to the good old days. Don't need a cannon to reach the par 4's. Great condition - private club quality and friendly staff. Good value and great location. |

| I Played recently in the middle of October. Fall Rates were great especially for the exceptional condition the course was in. My first time playing the course and staff behind counter as well as starters and rangers were very helpful and friendly to me. Timers on the cart are a great idea and help speed up play, all courses should have them. We played in 4:25 on a busy saturday morning which I was very satisfied with and I believe timers on the carts help rangers identify slow groups and helps pace of play. The only downfall to the course was that the golfers were very rude. Golfers behind us kept yelling at us to speed up. The pro inside apologized and told me that it was regulars with passes. I was upset that these people that paid $10-15 a round acted like they owned the course and gave no repsect to a full paying non-resident that is a guest to their course. These idiots are probably the same people that complain about everything and are too stupid to realize what deal they are getting to play one of the nicest courses in the Chicago Area. Mt. Prospect should get rid of passes, it is too good of a deal for these people that don't appreciate what they have. But other than these jerks, my experience at this golf course was great and the condition of the greens and the rest of the course was wonderful. I recommend people to play this course. I know I will come back, hopefully the idiot pass holders will have gone somewhere else and I can enjoy such a beautiful course to its fullest. |

| This course provices the challenge of hitting the ball very strait to score. Mature trees cover the course. The green's fees are little high for the goose crap everywhere combined with the "I'm better than you" service you receive from their staff. |

| Very well maintained old neighborhood course. There are houses around the course, but they are not a distraction. The course is tight, so long irons and 3-woods are a good choice for long hitters. |

| Nice, very old, neighborhood course. Mature trees w/ bentgrass fairways. Price is a little high, butI enjoyed the design. |

| Nice municipal course, but a little expensive for what you get. Greens are challenging and course is in good shape. |
| Golfer: Anonymous Duffer Date: 2003-08-08 Rating:  |
| This course is not worth crap on a stick. $48/walking was the rate... I would rather roll around on broken glass naked on steaming asphalt than ever play this goat run again. |
