Went on a weekend afternoon and 9-hole/cart pricing was very reasonable. A really nice old couple works at the desk where you check-in, who like to joke around. We always just walk in, as reserving a tee time is not necessary. The only dress code they seem to have are shirts with sleeves; they don't really care here if you have collared shirts.
Now to the course:
There are no paths, so you basically drive the carts wherever you want. Lots of friendly people playing and people are spaced out well, so never felt rushed at all. Even had enough time to have a putting contest on the 8th hole.
At the end of hole 5 is where the geese hangout, so watch out for their droppings. I had to actually yell at one of them, because one thought our balls were toys.
The first water you'll encounter is in the middle of hole 6, a big pond on the left side hidden from sight by a hill.
At the 8th hole green, there was a nice big shade to cool off from the hot sun.
The last hole is a very short, but fun par 3.
Overall a fun course to play on. Took us about 2 hours, but we're not that great anyways. Also, bring your own drinks as they don't have beer carts here.
If hungry and thirsty after, the shop sells $3 jumbo hot dogs and $2 gatorades. There's also a forest preserve park next door, so you can bbq afterward. Which reminds me, if the parking lot looks packed, don't worry as it's probably just a big family bbq in the park. read more
