Other Thoughts:

Am I the only one on here that enjoys this course for a quick, confidence boosting play? I try to make it here once a week with some friends before we go out to the bars, Its a quick play so we can get around it twice easily. No crazy shots or obstacles but I enjoy playing around this course twice. I've only been here on the weekend once and yes, it was packed but manageable. I've nearly been hit a few times by careless players who don't pay attention to see if you are done playing your hole but whatever. Hole #2 is super ace-able, I've come extremely close almost every time I play here.

If you live in or close to naperville, Its worth a play.

Also, The 7-11 on washington between foxcroft and 87th sells disc of all makes. If the middle eastern guy is working the counter ask him if he has any extras in back. He had all kinds of good stuff stashed out under the counter that he said he wanted to buy for himself, Which I thought was hilarious.

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 20, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

Lots of elevation for the Chicago suburbs, like other reviewers have said there this course can be fun and challenging if you resist the urge to tomahawk holes 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. Very well maintained. Very picturesque and relaxing if you come at the right time of day. Some nice technical holes (5 is one of my favorites).

Cons:

It's short. Both in time it takes to play and course distance. Hole 3 is the only one you can really rip a drive on (maybe hole 4). If you want to have the course to yourself you need to go during the day in the week, otherwise you will have groups in front and behind you. Holes 2 and 3 can be muddy after rains. Sometime you get people walking through the course as there is a nature walk on the other side of the parking lot.

Other Thoughts:

Careful with your drive on hole 3 or you could be sans a disc, there is long grass lining either side and it can get wet and muddy on the right. Definitely give it a run through if you are around, but don't expect to be dazzled.
