![]() Tee box conditions all over the place.some really should be closed down to allow them to be repaired and grow back in. Very hit and miss sand traps.mainly miss as several trap hard pan/sand never machine raked up by the grounds crew. Greens were smoothly rolling just fine - just tad slower than most greens I've played over the past couple of months. Went through four bottles of sand during the round and probably could have used four more.and I don't make much of a divot if any at all. Lucky us - our two some had four very nice drives in the fairway finish in non sanded divots. Sand bottles on both sides of the cart and patently obvious most golfers don't even lift a finger to fill divots that can't be replaced. Divots in the fairways - some so big and deep that they could be replaced. Freshly cut greens and we still had to fix quite a number of ball marks from previous days of play. The majority of golfers don't even attempt taking care of the course. Waters Edge is in okay shape however it does suffer from an extreme amount of play. A couple of greens had obvious club/divot damage from other entitled HOLES who play here. See my other reviews of this course below.this day the greens were pretty speedy but pockmarked with tons of no repaired ball marks and also old poorly repaired ball marks. Sometimes you just have back luck but I know in my heart the golfing gods will never ever be kind to these two guys. ![]() I'll treat them as poorly as they treated the golf course as well as all others playing the course. I hope someday I get paired up with these two guys. We thought the slow play nightmare was over.but these two senior jacks actually played even slower on purpose and held us up.to the point of backing up the other two other slow playing 4 somes we had played through!!!.and this with a completely empty 7 holes in front of them!! A 440 round that easily should have been 330/345. The millennials did have the decency/acumen to wait for our foursome to play through them on the 11th tee. These two managed to finally play through these two groups by the 11th hole and really took their sweet time as they did so. Two foursomes of millennials music blaring with beers already cracked were directly in front of them. When asked when their tee time when they arrived at the practice green the response was "we don't have one but we're next on the tee." We didn't bother to respond back to them.we just let them head to the first tee and waited for them at the putting green even though our tee time was absolutely next. Unfortunately our day was ruined by two lopes. Water's Edge is usually a decent play during the week. ![]() We've had a lot of bad slow play idiot experiences at Waters Edge over the years. ![]() Recommend but gird for extremely slow play by the many Richards who play here. Decent clubhouse restaurant and the routing itself is interesting and pretty. ![]() Greens had good speed - the flag positions were difficult - many of the greens have smallish shelves in several areas.and if you not on the right level it can get a tad eens undulations slightly over the top/smallish areas to play to and this feature definitely slows play. It is not hard and fast.we were making ball marks and holding greens. The course is playing unlike any other course in Chicagoland right now. Traps very wet and inconsistent sand conditions throughout - several traps had black liners showing. She's excellent.Ĭourse itself is an over watered sloppy mess in the fairway.so the ball goes no where when you hit the fairway.land in the rough and the ball bounces forever right into hazards. It should not take any more than 4 hours to play when you tee off earlier than 10am.and these Richards managed to draw their round out to 4 1/2 hours plus! Thankfully we had superior on course nurse service from Lisa. The group behind us was a least 2 holes behind as well. I must have not played it last season? Anyway the pace of play stunk (as usual) when we asked the 4 some ahead of us to move along one of them actually said "There's no where to go" when in fact there were almost TWO WIDE OPEN HOLES IN FRONT OF THEM. Surprised no reviews were posted in 2022 for this course. ![]()
