Not again

Four of us drove down from Minnesota last week of march to play early golf, found this for $12 for 18 holes and a cart couldn't believe it could be so cheap but you get what you pay for I guess .

Great staff

The staff was very friendly but the course is extremely confusing to follow. This might be because it's early in the season, but their was no signage of yardage or hole description.

Gardner

The attendant wasn't friendly. He tried to charge me 5 more dollars if I went as a single, even though the course was empty. I didn't appreciate his attitude.

Understand why the rate was cheap...

If you're incredibly bored, need a last minute tee time, and want to try to find your ball in the 5 inch high, non-existent fairways, and seas of dandelions -- then this place is for you. Had no clue this place was here so I thought we'd check it out - especially at a cheap tee time. The place needs major upkeep and a makeover. Greens were so riddled with divots the ball wouldn't even roll smoothly and jumped around. Friendly staff but a horrible course. Don't waste your time.

You get what you pay for

I lost more money on balls i could not find in the fairway, well there really are no fairways, then I spent on the green fees. Spend the extra money on a different course. Dandelion Golf Course should be the name of the course.

Biggest plus to the course is the cheap tee times

I only play this course when everything else is booked on golfnow and I am stuck choosing Gardner as opposed to paying full price at another golf course. This course serves its purpose as a cheap alternative to other courses in the area but don't expect much.

Worse every time

Course gets worse every visit. Only play for the price, but its not worth it anymore. Carts are terrible, greens are gone and if they had true fairways, they would be terrible also. Trouble is, there are no fairways. Any other course would classify it as rough. Way too much clover so you can't find your ball. If you hit into the "rough", your ball is lost. The staff is nice on a weekend morning, but if you go later in the afternoon/evening, the head "pro" can't be bothered to help you. Don't waste your money trying to play here. Notice, I said "trying"! This course is terrible!

Horrible

The greens are all chewed up. There is no fairway it's just rough that has been cut shorter. It's really to bad this course has a nice layout to it but has not been taken care of at all!!! You are better off hitting golf balls out of your own backyard even off your driveway for that matter!!! It's $10 for a reason....

Terrible

Course is worst every time I play it. Cheap tee times usually help me to look past shoddy course conditions but I won't be back. Pace of play was rediculous, golf cart was literally falling apart, fairways have more mud than grass, etc; would not recommend until changes are made systemically.

Cheap but you get what you pay for

I know it's winter and the grass is dormant but it still could of been better. Greens had really bad rough patches. Fairways were thick and like mowed pasture grass

good course for the money

It not a country club but is in the country. Its a laid back kind of course. Staff is really friendly and even better when you get to know them. There's a saying that "you get what you pay for" so the course is a so-so on condition wise but most of it is good condition. It is a moderate difficultly but have some challenging holes

Good course for the price

I'd play again because of the price and the quickness of the play. A laid back course that has some beat up greens. But I'd go again.

It was ok. Paths are rough. I like electric carts because they are smoother. Lot of crabgrass.

you get what you pay for

Gas golf carts..Enough said.
The front 9 is horrendous. someone slapped a teebox and a green on an open field and said HEY GO PLAY! I would play the back 9 twice if I went again. The course is not maintained. The elderly gentlemen working the proshop, with all due respect, wasn't all there, so you have to have a lot of patience when talking to him. If the course was even slightly maintained a little better I would play again. I would highly recommend paying an extra 10$ and going somewhere else. I only paid 12$ but it wasn't worth it.

Ok, but needs improvement

The course lacks good markers for distance, the cart paths need some work and some of the Tee Box conditions are not the best.
