My Weekend in Chicago – Cog Hill Dubsdread | Green Bay Real Estate Voice

This past weekend I got to spend some quality time with my beautiful wife for my birthday weekend. We decided to take a road trip to Chicago Il. Grandma and Grandpa had the little ones at the farm for the whole weekend. My children really enjoy spending time at the farm doing all different types of fun activities. With the kids in a great environment it was time for us to spend some quality time together.

With it being my birthday weekend I got to pick our first activity golfing. Anyone that knows me personally knows that one of my true passions is golf. Being in Chicago IL two years ago for the BMW Championship at Cog Hill I always wanted to play this PGA caliber course. I made the phone call into the pro shop and without a hitch they made a tee time for me and my wife. The course we would be playing is the actual course that held the BMW Championship this year as well which the famous Tiger Woods walked away with a huge victory to secure his FEDEX cup chances.

Having walked the course before and watching it multiple times on TV I was extremely excited and jumping with internal joy. Golfers know exactly what i’m talking about. Teeing off on the first tee felt like I was in a PGA Tour Event until reality hit. Off of the first tee I found my first bunker, don’t worry it wouldn’t be the last of the day by any stretch. I managed to escape the bunkers of Cog Hill Dubsdread and pulled together a decent round of 91 from the blue tees. Considering the difficulty of the course I was extremely happy with the end result.

Cog Hill Dubsdread – What I Enjoyed About It

PGA Quality grooming and unbelievable true rolling greens
Gorgeous setting that didn’t disappoint one bit
Every hole was a new challenge. Actually I really dont’ think there was really any per say easy hole on the course
Cog Hill Dubsdread is what I consider reasonably priced for the quality of the course for $150.00 you can play at your leisure.
They didn’t charge me extra for having my wife ride in the cart. I’ve had bad experiences with this in the past.

As far as my personal experience at Cog Hill Dubsdread I would say it was an overwhelming birthday gift to have played the course. Hopefully i’ll be able to play it again some day and actually score where my handicap is.

After our golfing we decided to head into downtown Chicago for dinner. The two gentleman we played with recommeneded a great seafood/bar atmosphere on the Chicago river called Dicks Last Resort in Downtown Chicago. Our new friends made us aware of the interesting atmosphere and warned us you would find people throwing paper towels, people wearing hats made of paper towels, and just a rowdy fun type atmosphere. We got a seat on the patio overlooking the Chicago River. It was the perfect setting for relaxing. Being a micro brew lover I had to get one of my favorite brews the Goose Island 312 which is brewed locally in Chicago IL. We tried a variety of things on the menu from ribs to crab legs. Overall the nite was a astounding success!

If you ever in the Chicago IL area i’d recommend both of these venues as a great place to unwind and have some fun! Hopefully we’ll be on another vacation sometime in the near future!
