Simple course slower play

A short 4,500 yard course without par 5’s built by the railroad men in 1910. It’s has two long Par 3’s hole number 2 and 6 both at 230 yards from the Mat but from the grass tees they play 200yards.
Yes many holes have a mat or grass tee. It’s a good course for people learning the game.
Also it’s located in Edgebrook so they do not sell alcohol so you may bring your own.

Come prepared.

There was no alcohol in the shop… there’s really no turn around point where you can swing by for more water/snacks.
You have to hit off a mat a few times which is horrible. Plant some more trees and get this course in better shape!
Yes I will play it again!

Not a great place to play

The starter talked and joked while in your backswing. Forced you to tee off even if you could hit past the group in front of you.

This caused a major backup in pace of play and it was LITERALLY the fault of the starter. He may have been on the spectrum so I didn’t want to complain.

There is virtually no way to tee the ball up on the mats you have to hit off

Tough Tee Boxes

Some of the tee boxes are really in poor shape, to the point where you literally need to be creative in where you hit from. Rest of the course is in decent shape.

Good beginner course

This course was in really good shape for this early in the season. So I have mixed feeling about this course…. Pros: pace of play the 4 times I’ve gone has been very fast! Our 3some last time out finished 18 holes in just over 3 hours. No sand traps! I can enjoy a round without worrying about getting caught in a nasty bunker. The course has a good mix of easy and challenging holes. The same goes for the greens. Some are pretty flat and others are on a steep slope. Average/beginner golfers can feel good about themselves because they can actually reach every green in regulation.
Cons- the course is short, so if you’re looking to crush 300+ yard drives don’t come here. Because the course is in a lower elevation if it rains the course gets flooded easily. Because of the flood hazard some tee boxes are artificial mats instead of actual grass.I think 14/18 can be played off of grass so that doesn’t bother me so much.
All things considered for the price this is a great course to get a quick round in.if you’re a good golfer you can reach a few of the par 4 greens with less than driver… which is nice. There’s also a couple tough par 3’s so it balances out
