This course is now known as the Evanston Wilmette Community Golf Course. The locals often refer to it as "Canal Shores". It is situated on narrow fairways and is longer north to south. The course starts outside the American Legion Hall in Evanston, goes up to the Bahai Temple in Wilmette and works its way back down to Noyes St. in Evanston. Great course to walk, but carts are available. Challenging holes fine tune short and long irons. Course is getting in much better condition and there's a Tour of Duty tournament coming there in August. Good value and worth trying.
Would travel: 0-10 Miles
Bottom line: I would play again, Average course for the area, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
