Very good track……Needs few upgrades
Good round and decent conditions. Roughs little high around greens and first cut. Seriously need to fix cart paths as potholes are horrible. Ranger needs to keep groups moving. Halfway house wasn’t open but cart lady did show up a couple times.

This course has some long fairways. But the variety of holes (long & short) is what I really liked.

A very good course with friendly staff.
Played as a foursome with teams of two playing best ball.
Course is in nice shape and the greens are solid and challenging. Fairways were good for the most part and our early afternoon tee time let us play unhindered by others until some twosomes caught us on the back 9 who we allowed through on 11 and 12. Had a great time and recommend the course. A bit on the pricier side but if you like to play at your own pace it is for the most well worth it.
Only encountered the cart lady once so come prepared for that possibility early in the week.

The best
The best course in Chicagoland area that I have played so far. Fairways, rough and greens in perfect shape. Especially since we haven’t had any rain in last 3-4 weeks. Obviously the course is fully sprinkled and used. Not the norm for public courses.
