Needs improvement, in clubhouse and on the course.

Played as a 4 some, myself and my son arrived 5 minutes before are scheduled tee time, mostly my fault had some minor problems before I left,which is very unusual for us, we are usually 30-40 minutes early every time we play together. When we arrived to join the other two in our group, we were meet by the person from inside the clubhouse outside by the golf carts, with a very unpleasant "do you know when your scheduled tee time is. The other groups after you will now be late also." We proceeded to get into our cart and drive to the 1st tee, where the 2some if front of us was waiting to tee off because the group in front of them had not hit their 2nd shots yet. I proceeded to go back to the clubhouse to explain why we were not able to tee off on time, and was greeted with "next time show up when you are supposed to."
Beside the not so good start to the round, the fairways were not in good condition, hard to tell the difference between the rough and the fairways. The fairways were covered in clover and weeds. The greens were in ok shape. Will probably not return do to the very unfriendly staff working here.

Nice course

This to me is a hidden gem. Over the past couple of years some much needed repairs to the course now has it so it is very pleasant to play. The course has its difficult holes where you need to be accurate off the tee, but also has many holes that even the average player may not get into trouble. The staff is very friendly.

Always a great time, but not this time.

Every time we play here we have a great time. The course is in great condition, staff is very friendly and great place to grab a bite to eat after your round. The only problem when we played this time, and we had 2 golfers in our group that had not played here, was that they over watered the fairways. I know we have had some dry and hot days but almost every fairway was saturated. We lost a few golf balls that plugged after our tee shots and if you were in a low lying area, which there is plenty, you were swinging standing in a swamp. If you hit a good tee shot you did not get any benefit of any roll, the ball would either plug or roll 10-15 feet. Will go back, but will call to see their watering habits.

Not worth the money!

Got a great deal with a hot deal, but still not worth the little money that we paid. The greens were in very good condition, but that is where it ends. I know we have had some harsh weather, but not to water the fairways at all, they were burned out and we had a very hard time playing from the "fairway." Staff was not friendly. Will have a tough time coming back again.

Very enjoyable day of golf!

Greens were in excellent condition. Some challenges to the course, water, bunkers and shot placement a must. Staff very friendly. Would have liked to see a ranger on the course, some slow play with a 4 some 2 groups in front. Would have liked to see someone pushing them on. Will be back soon.

Will be back, hopefully to play little quicker

Great staff, course in very good condition even with the amount of rain we have had. Greens in great shape. Just wish we saw a ranger on the course to speed play up. Played on a Tuesday morning, over 5 1/2 hours to play. Had foursome 2 groups ahead of us, very slow and would not allow groups to play through. Would have been nice to see a ranger pushing that group, none to be found.

Gem of a course.

The new owner, Mike, is doing a wonderful job in getting this course back into shape. The day I played the course, that morning we had plenty of rain, the course was in very good condition. The greens are in perfect condition and the fairways also in great shape. Older course so you need to be able to play straight and make good shots. Will be going back soon.

One of the best courses!

Played the course after rain the day before and rain in the morning. The course was very dry for as much rain as we got. Staff very friendly, greens in excellent shape and just a very pleasant round of golf.

Needs lots of care

First time playing the course, will not go back. Stormy weather day before, greens were covered with branches, leaves and everything else you can think of. We saw a worker blowing of 1 of the greens, but that was the only one, all the rest needed to be done. Fairways were cut, but on some holes if you hit into the rough, you were not finding your ball. The holes that they did cut the rough area, our group found over 15 golf balls. The rough was so high, that even after they cut it, the cut grass was still so thick and heavy you had no chance on hitting the ball out. Greens were not in good condition. Will not be back.

Nice layout, very slow play

1st time on the course, had a foursome in front of us that was very slow. At the turn asked ranger to push the group but never saw anyone from the course. Made a very nice day to one where I may not come back.

Wonderful Metroparks course

1st time playing this wonderful course and will be back again real soon. Worth the travel time. Staff was extremely friendly. Course was in great condition, fairways were well kept and rough was thick and if you were in it, hard to get out of. Greens were also in great shape and pin placements made you make quality shots.

Staff very friendly, back nine to gimicky

Had a very good experience with all the staff that we came into contact with. They were friendly and helpful. The front nine was nice to play, except we had a threesome in front of us that slowed play down considerably. Wondered were any staff was to push them along. Then you get to the back nine, where if you are not on your game, it could be a very long 9 holes of golf. The par 5 double dog leg hole is in my opinion, a very poorly design. Those that are long hitters like a chance to reach the green with 2 great shots. Not a chance here.

Great condition for this time of year

1st time playing the course and my mistake in waiting to the end of the season. The course was in very good condition. Tee boxes were ok, greens were in great shape and fairways were cut and well maintained. The only problems we encountered was the bunkers, which were very hard and the front nine greens had just been aerated, which made putting difficult at times. Will be back next year!

Older course that we enjoyed playing. Staff was very friendly and helpful in many ways. Greens were very nice. Some of the fairways were being maintained and some still need some work. Tee boxes were not in good shape. Will be back, good deal for the money.

Good couse that needs some work

This could be a nice course if some little upkeep was being done. Many of the holes have either ground under repair or just plain dirt piles on the hole. Front and back nines are very different and with some work the back nine could be very nice. Greens were very nice.
