First time

First time, decided to play on a nice but windy day. Grind was still wet in certain places but playable. Greens were in good shape for the time of year.

Perfect weather
Used cart

Not bad for march

Beautiful march day!! Course was a littlle wet but minimal mud. Course was in good shape for the 1st day of spring. Cart path only made for a lot of walking. Inclined and undulating greens made for a lot of tough 3 putts as usual. Almost too challenging once they dry out.

Fast greens and sub 4 hour round

Course was in great condition and pace of play was great - especially for a Sunday morning. Greens played fast and we’re in good shape. Fairway bunkers had small rocks in them, but green side bunkers were better maintained. Grab a drink at the clubhouse, since seasonal employees weren’t there bc they are back in school.

Fast fast fast greens!!!

This golf course is a Gem ! Greens are lightening fast ( which I prefer) . Some holes are forgiving fairway wise , but others especially hole 18 take some serious precision with your first and second shot . Play the course , you will be glad you did !!!

Great course but staff is always crabby

Every time I play I get a very unwelcoming vibe from the staff. Ranger are lacking golf etiquette and are very unfriendly. Both times I played this year the Ranger drove through our hole in our backswings. Nobody seems to be happy to be there.

If the course wasn’t fantastic I would not continue to play it.

Don't know what the hype is about

Drove an hour to this course and was disappointed. I play tons of golf and for the price of this course it didn't match the value. Greens roll but overall maintenance is very sub par all around. No where near a $70 round and won't be returning. Staff was cool on a plus side. Not sure how this course is almost 5 stars.. are there not many courses in the area?

Great place to play!

Course was in excellent conditions.
Greens were fast and rolled true.
The course presents the opportunity and need to use all the clubs in your bag. Elevation changes and rolling fairways provide great scoring opportunities.
The course is also very pretty with wetlands sprinkled throughout. The good news is that avoiding the wetlands is not terribly difficult.
The only course item keeping the rating at good is that the bunkers lacked sand.
Off course the bar is very nice with a good selection.
Pro shop has very nice merchandise and the staff both on and off the course are welcoming!

Great course

Steeple Chase provides a superb golf environment. With gold, blue, Blue/white and more sets of tees, it’s perfect for all golfers.
The greeens are true and the course has excellent maintenance. Virtually no bad spots. It has plenty of character with a wonderful finishing hole.
Every hole is different. Carts are provided with GPS and blind shots are monitored.
The staff is friendly and on course purchases are simple with plenty of selections.

Slow Round on a Sat Afternoon

I expect it to be a little slow on a Sat afternoon, but not a 5 Hr round. There wasn’t a ranger and 1 group held the entire course up. Could’ve been easily addressed by making them skip a hole, and skip another if the held people up again.

ABSOLUTE GEM

Long course, challenging, greens were firm but true. Rolled fantastic. Played for 54 bucks today and by far one of the best rounds I’ve been in Chicago this summer. Highly recommend.
