Also they recently reinstated their complimentary shuttle service, within 5 miles. They have a van that seats 12 passengers, and definitely can make trips to and from Skokie Country Club. It is customary that the driver is tipped. The shuttle can be scheduled in advance, and it's OK that there might be many groups of classmates staying at the hotel who need rides to and from Skokie Country Club. To get rides back to the hotel, simply call the hotel or the driver directly, when ready to be picked up. This complimentary service is available both Sat night and for the Sunday brunch.
