StillWaters Golf Club - The Highlands Course
Played On 07/13/2019Stillwaters much better than the talks
Welcomed by a warm handshake and extremely friendly staff members in the Pro Shop made the start into my golf day a perfect one.
Although the golf carts are not the newest ones and the GPS doesn‘t work properly the design and layout of the 18 holes of The Highlands excuses the negatives. Although not every green and for sure not every bunker is well maintained is the game exciting and diversified. The fairways are mostly good and wide open if you don‘t hit the ball always straight. Pace of play on a Saturday was excellent, no Marshall was seen.
Although left and right of the cart paths was a bit too much trash (beer cans, plastic bottles etc.) I definitely would recommend this course and will come back one day.
The Greens At Auburn
Played On 03/17/20199 holes a The Greens
Community golf course with not well maintained tee boxes, fairways, greens and bunkers. Layout is nice. Hole 6 is difficult to find due to missing markers.
Dogwood at Marriott's Grand Hotel & Lakewood Golf Club
Played On 09/01/20185-Star-Course besides rain
Although the weather was really bad and wet the newly renovated Dogwood golf course provided our twosome lots of fun. Tee boxes, fairways and greens have been in best shape, and the pro shop and outside service staff was extremely friendly. And without saying the setting and landscape is great, too. Even if one hits a branch of the old oak trees.
Would always come back and recommend!
White Plains Golf Course
Played On 08/25/2018Subdivision golf
This is a typical subdivision golf course. Fivesomes are allowed as well as ignorance to single players for not letting them play through. Fairways are really bad, lots of wheat, greens ok. But what really sucked was pace of play on a Saturday afternoon.
Barren River Lake State Resort Park Golf Course
Played On 05/06/2018Spring awakening at Barren River
Greens were the best, but tee boxes and fairways still in winter mode. Due to heavy rain the previous days it was cart path only and many wet spots on the course, mainly on the fairways. Course layout and river views are beautiful. Pro shop staff was very friendly.
Miami Shores Country Club
Played On 03/23/2017Miami Heat
First time playing in Miami. Picked this Country Club on Biscayne Blvd (Hwy 1), which was easy to find. Course conditions were good, greens pretty fast, but layout was not spectacular. I was teamed up with two other single players and we had fun despite the heavy afternoon thunderstorm.
Gulf Shores Golf Club
Played On 08/18/2016Hot day at Gulf Shores
Not far from the beach in Gulf Shores you can find this golf community. It's a not very challenging layout, but with long fairways and some water hazards. Greens were slow while freshly aerificated. All staff was friendly, but no beverage service was offered on the course.
I was here in 2015 before and hope I can come back in the near future.
Sherling/Canyon at Cambrian Ridge
Played On 08/16/2016Great golfing at RTJ's Cambrian Ridge
Not many words necessary. Approx. 5 miles from I 65 you can find this excellent golf paradise. My son and I played Sherling and Loblolly. Both 9 holes have been in great shape. Greens are fast and not easy. Course layout is beautiful. Staff friendly.
The Canyons is currently under construction. So we will come back to play this one as well.
Wekiva Golf Club
Played On 04/22/2016Weeds and divots everywhere
2 years ago when I played Wekiva last time the course was in a better shape. This time weeds and divots have been everywhere. Tee boxes and fairways are really bad, greens bumpy, and the cart path needs new concrete.
Nevertheless the layout is nice, and the staff very friendly.
Will try Wekiva again when I am in the area next time.
Logo/Rock Garden at Orchard Hills Golf Course
Played On 12/10/2015No rush on this Thursday afternoon
I came to Orchard Hills for the second time. Course has s good layout with lots of water hazards, pretty fast greens and apparently new sand in many bunkers. Unfortunately some of the tee-boxes and greens need some maintenance. Noise of the adjacent I-85 can distract the game on many holes.
Overall it was worth the trip.
The Oak Bridge Club
Played On 11/24/2015Only the bunkers are still really bad
It was not so bad as I've thought it would be after reading the reviews. Sure this course is not as pretty and well maintained as the close by TPC Sawgrass, but it is pkayable and a different price category. The layout is quite challenging due to many water hazards. Try to avoid bunkers. The sand is old and for sure not soft. Fairways are average, ome greens are a bit bumpy.
I'd definetly give it another try when I am in the area.
The King and Prince Beach & Golf Resort
Played On 11/22/2015Cloudy Sunday afternoon at the Hampton Plantation
It's a nice course on Sea Island, but make sure you have the right directions. The GPS leads you to a gate, where you can't access the community as a visitor. There is only one gate with a guard, where you get through if you don't live in this neighborhood.
Course layout, fairways and greens are all good, well maintained. Only distance marker are rare. On the back 9 is a lot of marsh land, where the breeze is heavy and the alligators wait for the golf ball, which does not make it over the hazard.
Yes, I would definitely play again when I'm on the island.
Wedgewood Golf Course
Played On 11/08/2015Windy Sunday afternoon at Wedgewood
It's worth the short drive from Memphis! Wedgewood's 18 holes are located in a nice neighborhood area. Plenty of water hazards come into play, so accurate shots are important, especially with the wind blowing so strong this fall. Fairways and greens are well maintained.
I'd come back if I am in the area.
GolfUMK - Thank you for taking the time to rate our course! We can't wait to have you back!
Lakewinds Golf Course
Played On 10/16/2015Very hilly at the Lakewinds Golf Course
The Lakewinds Golf Course is right next to Hwy 280. So you can hear the noise of the traffic, what can disturb your game on many holes. It is a nice layout around a lake, but very hilly with extremly small and fast greens. Accurate shots are a must or your ball runs all the way back down where it came from.
It is worth the drive if you are not from Alexander City like me.
Red Wing Golf Course
Played On 09/15/2015Big hills at Red Wings
I came to Red Wings for the first time and I was surprised about the big hills. Nearly every hole has a decent slope, what makes the course tough and challenging. I liked it and it also gives you a great scenery.
Course overall was in good shape, a little slow due to an ignorant threesome in front, who didn't let me pass as a Single.
I will definitely consider to play again if I am in the area.
FarmLinks at Pursell Farms
Played On 09/10/2015Chilled apples makes the course even more enjoyable
FarmLinks is a clear 5 star golf course. For sure one of the best in Alabama. I played here for the second time. It was worth the drive. All was great. Tee boxes, fairways, greens and even some hazards are terrific. Signature hole is no. 5. Bring your camera and don't forget to taste the chilled apples!
I will always come back to this facility.
Hi GolferUMK,
Thank you for playing at FarmLinks Golf Club! We are happy to hear you enjoyed your time with us, and had a exceptional experience. FarmLinks Golf Club is a uniquely beautiful course with signature features like the chilled apples.
We look forward to seeing you again soon!
Best Wishes,
FarmLinks Golf Club at Pursell Farms Management
Bay Point Resort - Nicklaus Course
Played On 08/26/2015Great golfing at the Bay
The Bay Point Nicklaus course is a great course with beautiful views to the bay. If you hit to hard on hole no. 5 you can even play from the sandy beach. Ask the friendly starter for some recommendations. He will give advice for sure.
Course conditions are excellent, greens are fast, but some divots make putting more difficult.
I definitely play again when I am in the area.
GolferUMK,
Thank you for coming out to play Bay Point! We hope to see you again very soon. Make sure to check out our website for tee time deals and best prices you will find to play golf here.
Rapid City Elks Golf Course
Played On 08/17/2015Nice course in the Black Hills
If you get to the course and you see the old lodge and the parking lot you don't believe there is a good golf course. Ambiente isn't appealing, but the course layout, especially at the new back 9, is great. Fairways and greens are well maintained.
It is worth the drive. I'd always come back kf I am in the area.
Drake Creek Golf Club
Played On 08/12/2015Not feeling welcomed at Drake Creek on this Wednesday afternoon
Besides all critics below the course lay-out and fairways are good and challenging. The greens are very soft with lots of bad divots which make accurate putting very difficult.
But I did not feel very welcomed on this Wednesday afternoon. I've booked through Golfnow and was about 55 minutes early to my reserved tee-time. Because the course wasn't packed and lots of tee-times available this afternoon I was asking if I can play right away. The staff at the Pro-Shop said "no", if I wouldn't be willing to pay a surcharge in addition to my prepaid green fee. They showed me a list with prices, e.g. $10 extra if you are 30 minutes prior to your Golfnow reserved tee-time, $15 for 45 minutes and so on. After some minutes of discussions about "the club does not get any money from Golfnow" and "they don't care much if I even play, because I did not pay them directly" I ended up paying the requested surcharge. Later I found out, that hole 12 was closed for today, so my "double charged green fee" was good only for 17 holes.
Bay Breeze Golf Course
Played On 07/29/2015No play allowed without proper pre-authorization
Be careful - golf course is on a military base!
Make sure you get to the course in advance. I had a 11 o'clock Golfnow tee time, but when I came to the gate of the military base at 10.30 they didn't let me pass. I had no military id or clearance from the golf course. The guards sent me to their visitor center 1 mile away, where they called the golf course for an email confirming my booking. Unfortunately the person, who is authorized to confirm reservations and give clearance was not available. So I was asked to come back later or next day and try again.
Hi GolfUMK,
Thank you for choosing Wekiva. We are sorry to hear that we did not meet your expectations. Course conditions are always changing and we hope to have another chance at exceeding your expectations!
