Love Hate
This is a difficult review because the course is above my skill level for the tee boxes they have. I am 65 so the days of 6500-7000 yard courses being enjoyable are slim unless the course is flat with little trouble, That is not the case here. Course is beautiful with many elevation changes making one 600 yard hole play more like 650. Course was maintained well except for the rough and cart paths. As difficult as this course is the rough shouldn't be a forest. Cart paths were horrible with potholes and tree root damage galore. Loved the course itself, hated the length, rough and cart paths.
Awesome Day at Big Run
Have not played Big Run in couple of years but I will be playing here more often. Greens are in perfect shape, course is beautiful, design of course is wonderful, bunkers solid. Good old school atmosphere. Cart paths are rough but otherwise this course is an absolute treat.
Best challenge in the southwest of Chicago area
Play here if you want to use all your clubs. Long,hilly, beautiful course was a pleasure to play. Not many golfers there due to significant rain leading up to our morning tee time. Course was in great shape.
Poor conditions
I understand fall golf with leaves on the ground but you’re still paying a pretty good price golf! No ball washers and if your ball rolls off the fairway into the rough considerate it gone! The rough was 5-6 inches long covered with leaves, everyone on the course was looking for their balls!

My Round at Big Run
I have always viewed Big Run as one of my favorite courses in the Chicagoland area. It is not flat as are so many other courses and has a great layout. The course was very well maintained and even with the leaves falling, it was still in great shape to play. At almost seventy and not wanting to go to the senior tees, it may be getting a bit too hard for me to score well there. However, I still enjoy playing the experience of playing there and the challenge it presents.

Great old course
The course needs a little more attention. You may not to play Big Run in the fall. Just to many trees an leaves.
No driving range!
Course needs updating. Badly. Needs a driving range as well as better carts.. Need more geounds crew. Ample trees leads to leaves all over fairways AND greens - VERY easy to lose balls hit into the fairway. I'll NEVER again play golf in the fall there. Course wasn't super busy and still couldnt check in and get cart until <30min b4 tee time.

Shaggy
The course has passed its prime. Overgrown rough results in lots of lost balls if you’re not in the fairway. Of course you find lots of other balls while searching so other golfers must have the same frustration. Layout is good and challenging, very long par 4’s. Greens were in decent shape. Overall, glad I played Big Run but won’t be running back soon.

Slow, slow, slow
Almost a 5:30 round of golf and they only positive I could say is that the weather was nice. Course conditions were fair - hadn’t been mowed in a while and fairways were like rough, rough was so overgrown that it took 10 mins to find balls thus the slow play. Looks like they are barely holding on and they didn’t offer any on course amenities, the half way house was fine, on course bathrooms were disgusting & that comes from my male playing partner and no ranger on the course so there were par fours with 4 groups on a hole. Won’t be going back anytime soon and neither should you!

Long course with challenging fairways. Old growth trees and foliage make this one of the most beautiful courses in town
