overvalued

First time to play. Staff was friendly, amenities are plentiful, but the premium greens fee was not warranted because of the fairway conditions. The greens however were in very nice shape. Likely the time of year would explain the fairways, and I understand, but ......

Worth the drive

Yes, it is an out of the way course and I labored over the drive for years. Three weeks prior to this round I made the trek to play Blackstone. I was impressed with the course, facilities and staff.

I will play this course at least once a month and I recommend anyone to take the drive and find out for yourself why it's worth the drive.

I will admit that I have avoided this course because of the location but after playing it I now regret the procrastination. I will play it again without distance entering as a factor.

Bucket List Must

I was impressed from the time I exited my car. Beautiful facilities, friendly staff, extraordinary course layout and condition.

The only disappointment was that the round came to a conclusion..... Seriously, you have to play Regatta Bay! It compares well with tour courses.

I have played this cours many times and will continue to patronize. Friendly staff that appreciates your business. Challenging course that is fair, but targeted shots are required.

This course is removed from commerce and situated in an upscale housing addition. A bit out of the way, but well worth the effort.

Highly recommended...

A bucket list must

Have played this course about 6 times over the past two years and it is consistently well groomed, with a friendly staff, and very reasonably priced.

If I had any apprehension about recommending this course it would be that the greens are very difficult to read.....but that could just be me. I would be grateful to have feedback from others about this....

Always a good experience and worth the drive.

worth a look

I would say this course is a step up from a municipal course, but it still resembled a muni course. I have and am a fan of Kenny Perry. With the course identified with Kenny, I assumed it would look and play more like the courses Kenny plays.

All in all, I played in about three hours and enjoyed my round and day....just don't expect a well manicured country club and you will enjoy your round.

Go WKU Hilltoppers!!

I wrote an unfavorable review recently about this course, but have to say that within a week the course has made a turnaround for the better. Kudos to the greenskeeper....

nice layout

I like this course and have played it many times. However, at this time the course looks burnt. With few exceptions, the greens have suffered from the heat and sun. The cups were past due to recut. The fairways were sparse of grass.

The starter was very cordial, informative and professional. I will go back but likely will wait for cooler weather....

employee indifference

There seems to be a culture of employee indifference at this facility. Smiles are rare and customer appreciation not apparent. There are many golfing choices in this area. I see no reason to reward bad behavior and continue to play this course. The starter on The Oaks course Monday morning (2/27) was the tipping point.

Challenging course, but fair

Teed off at 8:00 a.m. Cold, windy and overcast. Played through groups and walked off 18th green in two hours and 15 minutes. Greens are excellent for over seeded greens. Challenging, fun course.

Vistas worth the greens fee.....

Staff very cordial. Fast pace, little waiting. Yardage marker sometimes difficult to locate. Greens were over seeded, long, and extremely slow.

Holes on the bay were scenic and always in play.

Greens were in very good condition. Challenging course with lots of surprises. Without local knowledge, this course can humble low handicappers. Fun and interesting layout.
