Pleasantly Surprised

After reading numerous reviews I was pleasantly surprised at the playing conditions. Not that the course is in great shape but it wasn’t as bad as expected. Tee boxes and fairways were very playable. The greens are in very tough shape. All things considered it was a good deal (TeeOff deal price) for the price. Would not feel the same way if paying the normal full rate. Good course to work on your game from tee to green. Putting is another story though... Great layout, hope they restore the greens in the near future. Cold beer and nice lunch menu available after your round. Check it out!

OMG!!

I travel here once a year. This was my go to course. I played there on Monday and it was horrible!!! I play about 250 rounds per year and I've never seen greens even close to being this bad. There hardly any grass on them and the grass that's there is just clumps so your ball bounces off them like you're playing Plinko!! I seriously wouldn't play there for free. It's that bad!! A few greens had gopher trails right through the middle of them 😱

Sad but true

Sad to say, but the terrible reviews below are valid, especially the one by lenc52. Pine lakes should do what Halifax did a couple of years ago, rip out all the greens and redo them while putting in temporary greens and charging $25 / 18 holes.

I think I went around Halifax 10 or 12 times that year because at $25 we were still out playing golf and it was well worth it. The course was able to bring in a fair amount of money, I'm sure, even with the repairs going on. Now it's back to full price so I've moved on but that was a great year banging it around Halifax.

It is no doubt expensive to redo greens and who knows what pine lakes financial situation is but maybe they could do nine holes this year, nine holes next year or something. The current approach isn't working.. such a beautiful course too.

Horrible

This is a track to skip at this point. Fairways were sand and dirt, greens were sand and weeds. You can see from the layout it was a nice course at one time but that time has passed. We ended up deciding to make all greens an automatic 2 putt as there was rarely a green that could be putt without bouncing over clumps of weed. Course needs to close for a year and grow the turf and put in new greens.

Poor condition

I have played this course numerous times. It was the worst it’s ever been. The greens were all dirt. There was no grass on them. It was unplayable. The course should’ve offered a discount or explained on the app how bad the course was I spent $112 and it was horrible.

Steer Clear

This course is in decent shape…. If you don’t look at the greens while you’re on them. Not a single green was puttable. Taking a line didn’t even matter because the ball was going to hop skip and jump its way there anyways. The fact that they charged $50 to play this is just embarrassing. The most abhorrent greens I’ve ever seen.

Greens are gone

Every green on the course has been lost. Was not a matter of maintenance being performed. Totally bare except for the random weeds. Hitting a putt was like playing Plinko. Should have been tipped off when there were virtually no cars in the parking lot at 10am on a Saturday. I asked the person who checked me in why so few people, and she claimed to be just as surprised. This course is normally in decent shape. They have the nerve to charge more than the normal charge when course is in good shape. This is not something that can be fixed any time soon.

Greens need attention.

Greens had an invasion of different grass that made it impossible to putt. All 18 holes. Some TLC and maintenance on tee boxes, ball washers, and signage. Otherwise, course layout was nice, pace was good and staff were friendly.

Requiem For The Dead

This course was in awful shape. Not just one hole, all greens were terrible with patches, holes, no grass and hard as a rock sand. I have never played on a course like this. GolfNow needs to remove this golf course from the list of courses available. I wouldn't pay $10. to play on that course again.

Requiem For The Dead

This is absolutely the worst golf course I have ever played on. Every green was in awful shape; holes, patches and no grass, only sand packed down with some weeds. The traps were in terrific shape, but even the fairways were only fair. The clubhouse and bar area were very nice. Pine Lakes GC needs to warn people of the condition.
