Good course for experienced players. 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 13, 2017 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Elevation
Cut Fairways
Good mix of holes
Shot placement and planning are important
Par 4s are legit
Very little pedestrians slowing the round down

Cons:

Can loose discs if you aren't careful
Water hazards on 18 and 9
Bad for beginner players, you will be searching for your disc every hole if you aren't accurate.

Other Thoughts:

Excellent course that gets better after a couple rounds. Course knowledge is key and learning when to play for par to reduce risk of bogeying is important. Huge distance drives are not as important to play the course as it seems in the beginning. Beautiful course with elevation changes that are rare in this part of Illinois.

Nicely done, and well maintained. 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 14, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

Excellent mix of long and short, right and left holes.

Cons:

Poison ivy lurking in all of the shady spots.

Other Thoughts:

The teepad signs are all oriented North/South. This doesn't really make sense if you are teeing off to the East. We ran into a maintenance guy who told us that the signs are going to be changed. I'm really impressed with the attention being paid to this course. Well done!
