![]() ![]() Pro shop has what you need and the dogs and brats are good too. I golf here at least once a month year round. Depending on the time of the week it can take time to play through, try booking on a odd day during the week and you could find yourself with a wide open curse, choose your times wisely, dont forget to look online for discount and golfing cards. The staff is friendly and cortious, the price is great for playing in the city. I like golf courses when they are close to the city, not all come with all the bells and whistles but most city golf parks are fun and challenging. Forest Preserve course that is open to public, lets be a bit understanding of what is what. Staff is young and this is not a course for all you professional players that shoot 73 and lower, you should continue shooting on the PGA tour. Staff is always super nice and helpful in anyway. Granted it may not have a Ranger to keep pace, but if you golf, you should no better anyway. This is a great course for Practice play and just having a great time out with friends on the weekends. Had to wait for 5 carts to be returned before we got one. I should have had my first clue when no carts were available when I checked in. I will avoid nice warm Saturday afternoons at Indian Boundary from now on. I usually play early through the week and the play is normal. They have no ranger to speed things along and way overbooked the course today. Took us 3 hours for the first nine holes. The play was so slow that we quit after the front nine. I just played there and paid for 18 holes. the staff is great from the manager to the desk people, to the starters, to the grounds men. There are duffers out there who are agonizingly slow and there is no ranger, so patience is called for. It can be slow on the weekends, but we usually play very early in the AM on weekdays and can be done in 3-3.5 hours. There are some tough greens too - 5,7,8,9,11,17 and 18. Although there are few sand traps, they are strategically placed and make those holes (6,7,8, and 17) tricky. The course itself has wide open fairways which are quite forgiving if you tend to hook or slice. This is a great municipal course with decent green fees. Long story short, Dean needs a hug and I recommend playing elsewhere! Not the courses policy.Ģ other groups had the exact same problem in the 20 minutes we were there, and Dean responded the same way when they asked the EXACT SAME question!įinally, someone came in and asked for a water and practically screamed at them to wait while dealing with the employee at the cash register going too slowly and "doing it wrong." The dude JUST COULD NOT accept the fact it was his policy. Ensue stammering, stomping, childish behavior, etc. When I asked him to point to the policy stating "only golfers on the course, he could not do it. My wife likes to walk while I play, and Dean allegedly had an issue with that, although there is nothing in the course policy indicating that was the case. Our challenges with Dean stemmed from a very unclear policy allowing "only golfers" allowed on the course. He got mad at an employee, and literally pushed them off the cash register for "not doing it right." ![]() He was not only rude to my wife and I, but 3 OTHER GROUPS right in front of me!
