Usually go here to golf, however went this morning and got harassed for “taking to long”.....I know that I am not a pro golfer, but when is it ever acceptable to treat guests in such a manner. We talked to the people behind us thinking they complained, but they were confused as well. Told us we are not even going slow. It is never acceptable to treat PAYING guests like this.

Will play this little gem again when...
Read moreFor 44$, I do not believe a better value could be found in a family owned golf course in the Starved Rock area. Tee boxes, fairways, and greens all in excellent shape. Fun and challenging front 9, exaggerated by the wind today. The back 9 calls for accurate long ball placement. All 18 greens held and rolled consistently, super friendly staff in the bar/pro shop. If I'm ever back here. I'm going to play 27 more holes at least. Facilty is just as...
