Beautiful golf course and the staff was very friendly. Tough pin placements made it a challenge for anyone and the layout was great. Anything after 5 p.m. has a GREAT price also!

I went to an outing here recently and it was a really fun time. The course was in great shape and though it was a very hot day there were lots of shady places and a nice breeze. The staff were great and very friendly.

Very playable golf course, in good shape, except for the bunkers. Nice people in clubhouse and snack area.

For the money it’s a pretty decent course. Quality has gone down a bit in recent years as they continue to fill in bunkers very, very slowly which leaves a lot of ground under repair. Layout is straight forward with generous landing areas on most holes.Weekend rounds can be painfully slow. Few courses are more desperate for a ranger keeping the duffers moving.

My wife and I played 18 holes on Sunday. The course was in great shape and was beautiful. We will be back for sure.

Drove an hour and a half, was not disappointed! Awesome conditions and very friendly staff. Just a beautiful course!!

Course was in very good condition like always. Best course to play at.

Best public golf in the area in my opinion.

Seniors do not play this course. Yellows are only 10 yards ahead of the white tees.

Nice patio area for a small gathering.

Always in good shape, and nice employees.

Great late season condition. Fairways & tee boxes are in excellent shape. Greens were just aerated, but not bad overall.

Good bones! Good memories, just needs a little TLC to make it great again.

I used the driving range. Well managed and reasonably priced. All grass in great shape with enough targets to vary your aim points. Reasonably spacious tee boxes rotated to keep grass playable. Faces west so late evening can be challenging.

Been going to The Rail with a group for 19yrs now. Always loved the layout of the course. Not too tough and not easy either, with some great risk reward holes. Course is not in the same condition as it was when the State Farm Classic was there, but the important parts are still in good shape, fairways greens and tee boxes. Staff in the pro shop are always nice and receptive to our group. Looking forward to many more years of playing up in Springfield.

One of my favorite RTJ Sr. layouts - its aged better than most of his work. The hole corridors are pretty wide and playable and the greens are excellent. Its only drawback is that its not overly long from the back tees.

This golf course is challenging but very enjoyable to play. The prices are very reasonable for a round of golf and for balls at the range.

The course is pretty nice. They have the best burger I have ever had at a golf course. Huge and juicy for $5. Full bar is nice too.

Pleasant workers. Interesting course. Divots in the fairways arent repaired by golfers or maintenance crews. The tee boxes are heavily damaged and there is no sand box at the tee or on the cart to do any maintenance. The golfers who play this course dont do any repair of dimples in the greens. But then the greens are very hard and balls landing dont react as you would expect. They roll forever. These greens need aeration and infusion of sand badly.

Nice course. Good workers

In excellent shape. Except for a few bunkers. Greens, fairways and tees are outstanding.

Pretty decent value for the money. The staff is always nice. I wasnt there to Golf. I was there to DJ a reception a couple of times in the last year. I felt like the staff was very responsive and kind.

If I could choose one golf course for our retirement group to play all the time, It would be this golf course. The course is challenging but fair. Good mix of holes with water and appropriate amount of sand traps.

Course has lost some of its appeal. Greens are getting beat up with ball marks.Staff have always been friendly and professional.

Superior layout. Well maintained except the traps. Good test for skills of all levels.

I absolutely love this course, it is somewhat scenic, and difficult. It is a longer course so have your irons/hybrids ready. Even witnessed a hole-in-one on of the par-3 holes.The course was in magnificent shape, and the staff was real friendly. We visited at the beginning of the year, we do our season kick-off there. Our moms best friend, and our best friend loved the course and has volunteered during the LPGAs tenure there, so its an in memorium for us.

The golf course fun to play, but not in the shape it was when th LPGA played here every year. The staff is friendly and attentive. Well stocked pro shop if you forget something or want a Rail item.

Very poor condition. Breaks your heart to see the decline in this course. The bunkers have been ignored and are horrendous. No shape anymore, very little sand and contain a lot of standing water. Ponds are full of algae and smell bad. Tees and fairways were fine and greens were ok also, albeit extremely slow. Loud gas carts complete the picture of a sad state of affairs.

Course in good shape. Nice fast greens

Great meeting place

Nice, well kept golf course. The course is fairly flat, though, so if you like a lot of elevation changes, it may not be for you.

JustLike the lay out of the course, staff very friendly and a great place to play.....

Great golf course great customer service all around good time!

Beautiful Golf Course excellent value former home of LPGA tournament.

I spent over a thousand dollars for a season pass. It wasnt worth it, It is not a well drained course, if it rains you will be playing constantly out of little ponds.I was told when I bought the pass, the course would open at 5.30 in the morning.This was important to me, I play early because of my problems with the heat and sun. It was never opened on time, it always opened late.I always want to play 18 holes but I always ended up playing a rushed 9 holes because of league play or an outing. I wasnt told all this when I bought the pass,I figure it will cost me about 80 dollars for each round.The course isnt that great. Ive played all the courses in Decatur, I would recommend them over the Rail.

Really nice course! Quite challenging!

This is a professional grade course. Makes me want to be a better golfer.
