Alright so I'll start with the positive. The course I WELL MAINTAINED and the clubhouse is quaint yet fit for purpose. Staff was nice and I did not experience the "surly" nature that a previous Yelp reviewer left. Golf carts are nice & updated with GPS technology, and even have USB Chargers which is a nice touch. Great drainage on the course and honestly I didn't experience a soggy fairway, green or rough. I'm from Florida and even though I LOVE our courses I can say that drainage is an issue and it's highly appreciated when I travel out of state and play. So onto the negative. The pace of pl…

New, well maintained golf course. Greens are not perfect, but course in a great shape overall. There is no driving range, clubhouse is really cool, they also have shower, and nice outdoor aria. My handicap is 22, and I scored exactly that.

Well maintained course. Staff is friendly but most were on their phones not paying attention to visitors arriving. At first was excited with the condition of the course, the nice carts with the awesome gps, but pace of play was rough. It took nearly 3hrs to play 9 holes during twilight hours and we skipped the 9th hole. I can’t imagine what it’s like during normal hours on a weekend and for the price you pay, you’d think they’d have a marshal out there keeping pace for the groups falling behind to avoid groups running into each other so much. Beautiful course and I hope to visit again, but wi…

Greens played extremely firm and above average speed. Great track for the price Sunday after 2: $44 Easy to walk Forgiving when driving but challenging around the green

Horrible pace of play but mainly the conditions. Wow. Horrible!! Not a divot or ball mark repaired anywhere. My group would fix 3-5+ ball marks each green. That’s like 20 per! WTH. Also the divot mix bottles that were on the cart were completely empty. The course is getting overplayed and the mgmt doesn’t seem to care or make an effort to fix it. Good luck. What used to be a nice hidden gem is now losing its luster.

Good course. $9 for a hot dog that’s not Vienna Beef is insanely exorbitant.

One of my favorite courses. I play here pretty much every Saturday and it's well worth driving from the city in the morning. The management is top notch and keeps everything in order. I noticed a few negative reviews stating that the course is punitive if you show up late. Well duh!!!!!! If you're late to your tee time, you might have to wait an hour since this course gets a lot of play (for good reason). The entitlement of some folks that they accommodate them without any regards to the other players that arrive on time is comical. This is what I appreciate most from the golf course. They do…

Had a wonderful experience as a sponsor for a golf tournament for multiple years now. The course is pristine. Staff goes above and beyond, at every level. Shout out to the new food menu and chef, everything was exceptional. The clubhouse is lovely and continues to improve each year. Overall, incredible experience as a sponsor. I can’t wait to come back to play for fun. Would give 10 stars if Google let me :)

Really tight course that’s well maintained but the starter was super angry as were some of the players on the course. Too much agro to warrant the drive from Chicago. Also, it was a 5 hour round, which seemed unnecessarily long for a relatively short course. Very nice clubhouse with really pleasant bar staff and pro shop check in though.
