The crew has done an amazing job keeping this county course in tip top shape through a brutal summer with multiple floods They just completely sodded the fourth fairway to help with some of the flooding and it’s in great shape.

Absolutely beautiful woodsy track … they are under renovation since summer 2025…The Preserve at Eisenhower golf course is what they’re calling it. Their pro shop is in a trailer. They haven’t built the clubhouse.

Way too easy of a course for far too much money. Pace of play can be pretty miserable a lot of the time. Scenery consists of powerlines and a cemetery which is not the most enjoyable backdrop to have while playing.

The front and back nine have different styles, with the front being more urban and the back being more natural as you move closer to the river. A few holes on both the front and back seem forced due to routing as well. The conditioning leaves something to be desired…
