Very nice course

This golf course is always great condition. Spoke to the owner of the club and asked me how the conditions were. I told him everything was great and the greens were in good shape. He thought he could be just a bit faster. Be careful with your speed on downhill putts. They're pretty fast.

It doesn't get better than this!

Whittaker Woods is just as good as any private course. Greens were lighting fast and rolled true. One of the most challenging and beautiful courses you will ever play. By the way, bring a lot of balls with you to this course. The fairways are tight and has many trees.

Pheasant Valley Needs Some Work

Pheasant Valley is a nice track with many rolling hills and tree lined. However, this course would be very nice if it was well maintained. The grass in the rough is very long and has long cut "hay" just laying on top. It was very difficult to find your ball unless you were in the fairway. Greens were a little slow and had maple tree seeds covering most greens. This could have been easy addressed with one person going around and blowing these seedlings off of the green. Overall, the course is worth the money I spent, but I was disappointed with the maintenance of the course.

Greens too fast but rolled smoothly

Big Run was in great shape. The green were very quick and rolled smoothly, however a few holes on the back nine were so slick that no matter where you hit it, the ball would not hold the green. Everyone in my foursome ended up picking the ball up and moving on to the next hole. The foursome behind us had the same experience.

Besides the problems with the greens, I absolutely loved the course.
