Attractive course

They pace of play was good. Greens were in decent shape considering the lack of rain. The fairways were very hard and needs watering. Rough was thick with weeds. Staff was friendly and helpful. Will play again in the future.

As usual, the course was in good shape. Greens were rolling good, but there were numerous ball marks that some lazy people were too lazy to fix. Pace of play was good.

Great course

Was surprised that some changes were made at the course. The gold course 1st hole has been switched to the Emerald 1st tee, and the Emerald tee was switched to the Gold 1st tee. Other than that, the rest is the same. Pace of play was good, and the course was in good shape.

Quality course

The course was in good shape. There are a few fairways that need some care, repairing where some dirt patches are. The greens were in good shape, even though they were recently airated. Pace of play was good, finished in 3 hours.

Local course

The course was in good shape. The staff was friendly as always. The starter wasn't very efficient at getting golfers to tee off on time. The regular starter who has always worked the Saturday tee times wasn't there, and the older gentleman who was there, couldn't seem to get the golfers moving in a timely manner. Where is John at? Does he still work there? Pace of play was pretty slow as well.

Hidden gem

This course has come a long way from some years ago, when the course was run down, with bad conditions on the greens and fairways. The greens were in terrible shape, and the fairways were like cow pasture. The traps had no sand in them, and the tee boxes were horrible. In recent years, the course has improved immensely. The greens and fairways are in good condition. Kudos to the management and the grounds keepers for improving the condition of the golf course. Keep up the good work.

Aside from the course being a bit wet, and carts on path only, the course was ok. It's still winter until March 21st, and having some days above freezing is a blessing to get out and play.

Great south suburban course

Pace of play was good. The only problem I see at the course is lazy people not fixing their divots on the fairways, and not fixing their ball marks on the greens.

Course was in good shape. Greens rolled good, but had ball marks on most of them. Bunkers were not being raked, and many divots were not repaired on the fairways. Still a great course to play at.

Deer Creek is always in great shape. The course is challenging, and has it's fair share of water and sand hazards, which make you plan the safest route to the greens. The only problem I see is people aren't fixing their ball marks on the greens. It only takes a few seconds to repair your marks . Still, a great place to play. Pace is good. And the staff are friendly.

Great Suburban gem

The course was in good shape. Greens were rolling good, but had many unrepaired ball marks. I guess some people don't think they're responsible for fixing their ball marks, but I'm sure they will complain when there is a ball mark in their line on the green. Just takes a few seconds to fix them. There were a few people on the course who need to learn golf etiquette. Still was a good day on the course.

Challenging course

This course has numerous holes that challenge your course management skills. Several holes have blind tee shots that can hamper your next shot. The course was in good condition, but there were several areas on the fairways that were in need of repair. Overall, the course was very playable.
