For Beginners, Apr 23, 2004

reviewer: RT from NW IL

It is hard to imagine that they crammed 18 little holes on this course, but they did. It is strickly for beginners as the longest hole is only about 100 yards. If you hit the ball more than 85 yards with a wedge, you probably only need to bring the wedge and a putter. It could be a nice little way to waste a couple of hours, but they have spoiled it by making you tee off of those green mats they use on the driving range. Too bad. Probably a good place to take young kids or someone new to the game.

Great place to learn the game!, Feb 25, 2004

reviewer: Laura from Chicago

I'm a woman in her 40's who first learned how to play the game at Lake Park 10 years ago. While I kept playing for many years, recently a back injury made it impossible for me to play. Now that I'm better, I can't wait to play again at Lake Park to re-initiate myself to the game and introduce new friends to the game!
