Such an enjoyable course to play in great condition. The golf carts are smooth and quiet, service is always nice. Vin90 is a perfect place to grab a bite after a round or to stop by for a drink and/or dinner. Firepits outside are v welcoming w a good view of the greens. A hidden gem!

This course seems inspired by God himself. Beautifully manicured and seemingly designed by an artist, this is by far one of the toughest courses I've played. Although I was having a tough time with my shot, I felt so blessed to be in that moment. My advise, there is a booklet that they give which is complimentary. It takes you hole by hole and teaches you the intricacies of the course. READ IT. I truly believe I could have shaved at least 10 shots off my round. What an amazing experience. If I could give 10 stars I would.

I had an incredible experience at the pro shop! The staff were not only welcoming but went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed. A special shoutout to Jimmy, who was exceptionally helpful and knowledgeable. He patiently answered all my questions, offered great recommendations, and made the whole process seamless. I highly recommend this pro shop for its excellent service and friendly atmosphere. Thanks, Jimmy and the team!

Course is in great condition and indeed has a variety of trees throughout. Hospitality services don't start til late AM, so early AM tee times will want to bring their own food/drink

This is a well maintained, interesting course. Played on 6/2, water challenges, tougher driving holes but you can club down. Greens, fairways and rough all in good shape, electric carts are a bonus. Compares well to B to B+ courses in the Chicago area.

The course itself is tough but is kept in pretty good shape. It was definitely a bit overwatered which made some of the sand traps hard to play out of. Also, a bit odd that there is no fringe on any of the holes that I noticed.

Our group’s issue was with the Marshall. We had a group of 8 people. None of us are good but we play fast and keep a good pace. We were playing a couple of minutes behind after 3 holes because we were playing a bit worse than normal. Shaking the rust off with an early morning round. Rightfully so, the Marshall mentioned that we should speed up. Completely agree but I was not worried because I know that it was out of the ordinary for our group. The Marshall continued to follow us play for 3 holes. Watching every single hit. As I mentioned, we are already not good, but this made us uneasy and play even worse. We did our best to ignore him and ended up finishing 9 in 1:45. The Marshall still came and said something about our pace on the back 9 and we saw him at least 3 more times watching us. He was clearly honed in on our group. We ended the round in 3:45. Which is a great pace in my opinion. However, the entire experience was ruined for our whole group and I guarantee we will not be back or recommend the course to anyone we know. I’d like to make clear that I think a Marshall is necessary but this was way too much.

Also, a bit pricey. $79 to ride and $55 to walk

Booked two tee times for 6 people to play best ball, we kept playing up to speed with the team infront of us. Had two marshall come up to us 3 times to tell us that we need to play faster when clearly we could not. One of the wardens was nice and said “ I know your playing speed, people just get frustrated when there is a 5 man infront of them”. We talked to the younger warden about it later at the pro shop and he said I saw you looking for a ball for a few minutes. We have two minutes per hole to look for a ball. I took a video right after the warden had spoken to us the last time he told us to speed up. You can clearly see in the video there is a group on the green, a team that just hit and a group behind us but we were supposed to “play faster”. I used to play this course every other week but will not be playing moving forward.
