Plus the golf motor carts they have are old as dirt and creaky. You can play Ravisloe for less.and I can easily think of 20 other courses I'd rather play and pay a more reasonable $30 to $40. On a perfect weather afternoon there's a reason the tee sheet was light - a $49 green fee after 2pm is outrageous freight for the really patently average golf course you play. It's always amazed me how the lemmings just continue to flock to it. My real pet peeve is that all of four the Cog Hill courses are ridiculously over priced and expensive for what you are getting.the exception being excellent grounds keeping & some nice staff. I said - it's a bunch of well groomed grasses with some shorter grass areas where you get to use a putter from time to time. Playing partner remarked late in the front nine.so far very unremarkable course architecture.this hole in particular is a bunch of low land and is pretty ugly. So they cut down or lost a lot of trees since my last play. After not playing #3 since at least 1990 I was then expecting the rest of the course could easily be some claustrophobic over treed nightmare.but after the 1st.all of the holes have very large corridors to be errant off the tee and still score. It starts out with a tightly treed driveable Par 4 with some sand in play greenside & can be soul crushing beginning - absolutely promotes slow play by less skilled golfers. It's old school with lots of back to front sloping greens and only a couple of somewhat memorable holes. That being said the course itself is pretty unremarkable. The Cog Hill beer in big cans - "Long Drive" by Lemont's Pollyanna brewery is also pretty decent quaff on course. So me and a playing partner had a very pleasant afternoon. All of the staff I interacted with were really friendly, helpful and welcoming and wanted you to enjoy your experience. Played in 3:20 but actually had to wait on the back nine a tad.so there was slow play earlier in the day. Teed off early because the tee sheet was very empty (even the starter was surprised) on a perfect weather Thursday afternoon. All areas including the sand traps were groomed nicely.
Here goes - course was really well maintained.
