Wedgefield Golf & Country Club

The course has had some needed upgrades since a new owner took over ~ a year ago.
Pros: The teeboxes, fairways and greens now have grass. The bathrooms are nicely upgraded, and the carts are all new. The new owner is likeable, approachable and is working hard to improve a course that needs lots more TLC.
Cons: The oak trees are way overgrown, and on many fairways, it is almost impossible to not hit into trees, sandtraps or water. This course can be irratating if you cannot hit long and very accurate. The sandtraps still contain sand that can be rock-hard when it is dry. The cartpaths are shot and need replacing. Finally, some of the waitstaff/bar staff at The Wedge, are negative, complain about the changes/upgrades presently occuring to the entire operation, and display irratation with "It's too crowded" when there are only 3 or 4 people in the entire "Wedge" (Restaurant and bar). And those 2 particular ladies will let patrons know that they are having a bad day, and you will have to tolerate their bad attitudes.
In conclusion, for the price and lack of a crowd (No shock to any of us that the place is usually desolate) it is an OK place to play golf. Forget spending time and money in The Wedge, it will dampen your spirit.

Very little grass on course or on tee boxes. Had to club down to compensate for conditions. Greens were long and slow. Course length was good and overall course layout was fair. Our cart stalled on 4th hole. That was unfortunate but notwithstanding the exchange of carts, pace of play was good. We played based on reviews but the reviews did not match the course we played. No water, ball washers or amenities at course. Driving range was a grassless field. Would not recommend or plan to play again.

The pace of play was slow compared to other times I’ve played here. Partly because they are aerating the fairways now but that’s just maintenance. Also the bunkers were more topsoil instead of sand. Hopefully they will refresh the bunkers soon too. Greens are in good shape.

Wedgefield is a nice, moderately challenging course that is reasonably priced. However, except for the greens, the rest of the course is barren desert like! You can't find a decent patch of grass on the fairway to hit from so, you end up hitting your ball from sand, literally. They have to do something to better the fairway and tee box conditions. Heavy seeding/massive patching may be an idea:-)

Pick your tees wisely. There are some short holes and some brutes. It's not a tight course but you can get in trouble easily in some places.

Everything was a bit dry, and the bunkers are pretty much dirt. A couple of tees were rough, but other than that, very playable.

What a disappointment. Reviews at 4+ stars. Tees and fairways just awful. Greens good but slow. Areas around greens bare dirt. Layout is pretty good. At one time this was likely a great track but no more.

Had a really enjoyable round

Upsides:
The course is very interesting.
It offers a decent yet fair challenge
Very friendly staff
Quick speed of play
Very inexpensive

Downsides are:
The pro shop is very poorly stocked (seems the only brand of equipment that they carry is Srixon - so no last minute ProV1s etc)
The halfway house / bar only opens at 4pm (at least this was the case yesterday) - so don’t arrive hungry…
It is a little dried out and has some patchiness, but given the cost of playing it is definitely worth the money.

Overall great experience besides running into two groups of 7 people and of 9 people all teeing off and not letting my twosome play through so every hole on the back 9 had a 15 minute wait to tee off.

Not sure why we started on back 9, but then when we got around to front there 3 foursomes that started on front 9. It became a cluster waiting. In addition, our cart died.

This course was really good fir the price..layout was good and challenging..some patchy areas but nothing terrible

It was fun to play and the course is tough from the blues.

Like the layout and greens were in very good condition. They do roll a little slower than some courses. Putting was good and true. A few of the greens have a lot of undulations and can be tricky. Positive: fairways had enough grass that you have good lies. Greens overall were in decent shape. Price was very good for course conditions. Negative: a few areas have been missed by the mower. The rough could be a little taller and thicker. Sand traps need to be turned over and raked daily.
