Oak Springs Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Oak Springs Golf Club is tucked away amid the rolling hills and wooded plains of St. Anne. Though it feels peacefully secluded, it's conveniently situated less than an hour from Chicago. As one of the premiere golf courses in Kankakee County, it has a layout that appeals to players of all skill levels and it's also one of the most affordable rounds in the area. There are some challenging holes but the rough is very forgiving in case hitting it straight isn't one of your strengths. The front nine features fairways lined with mature trees and there are some tough par 3s to contend with. The more player-friendly back nine at Oak Springs Golf Club is wide open and offers some great scoring opportunities. There are subtle but tricky undulations throughout and you'll also run into water occasionally.

Great deal on golf now, poor management of groupings
Got a great midday & midweek deal on Golf Now. Was ready to tee off as a single but was made to wait for a foursome, followed by a three some, followed by a two some, followed by a four some before I was allowed to go off. Ended up skipping two holes on the back and finished the back 7 in 35 minutes.
Pace of play sucks.
Pace of play is the worst here. People will not let you play around and feel entitled to take all the time in the world. No pro to keep pace. Owners do a good job. Other employees think they know golf and don’t know the first thing about it. I will still play the course. But I can’t wait to give money other places when they act like that.
🍻 cheers 🍻
The course where everybody knows your name, and everybody's glad you came, you want to golf where people can see your troubles are all the same? Then this is your course nice clean white sand traps, one or two greens had a few funky patches but all in all for the price, its like your kids you can't beat it.
Slow play on a great day
The course is a great place to play for a fast round on a early Wednesday. Unfortunately,, every body and their Mothers were playing this day
After three hours and ten minutes for 11 holes, the back could not handle the pace of the day.!
Has no bearing on the course nor the staff, they are great and had been for over the ten years we play there.
Tough to play when the back is hurting. I’m
Enjoyable golf at its best
I play here several times a week. While they are currently experiencing a water pump problem, they are allowing the fairways and rough to grow a little more than normal. They have a new superintendent so we'll give him some time to right the ship.
The course is always maintained very nice, from rough to fairways to bunkers aro greens. Greens are better than average smooth and quick.
I play here mostly now because off the terrain which is fairly flat. The course does have a few greens which rise but nothing extreme. I have two knee replacements now, the latest coming 18 weeks ago on my left knee. This course is easy for.me to manage even though I ride as much as possible.
Regardless of my scores, ranging from 78-84, I always enjoy the 3 hours or so it takes to get a round in. I have played alone in 2 hrs 5 minutes.
If you don't want to be tortured by a tough layout with quirky holes and just want to enjoy yourself then "Oakmont" as I like to call it, is the place to play.
Staff is extremely welcoming and accommodating and the restaurant/bar area is the best around with a fairly diverse menu.
If you go, tell them "Tall Paul" recommended it.
Friendliest people and staff
The staff are amazing and the patrons aren’t uppity. We had a great time.
Greens roll perfectly
We were met with friendly service in club house. We actually got to start 7 minutes early. Pace of play was excellent( 3 1/2 hrs). Greens in excellent condition and rolled smoothly.
Wonderful Day
This is about the 4th or 5th time I have played Oak Springs. I enjoy this course very much, for the beginning
of spring the course was in great shape. I'll definitely be back to play again, and into the summer and fall.
Nice
Excellent conditions. Interesting course. Inexpensive. Kind of in the middle of nowhere. Very worthwhile.
