Real slow once making turn

You're going to take time trying to find balls even if only two feet off the fairway but it took 45 minutes from finishing 9 till teeing off on 10 since they had 5 groups waiting on 10 since they decided to send people off both sides. I've played there twice this year and that's happened both times.

Challenging but Fair

Good course layout, and well maintained by any standards (muni or not). The course is fair, but a challenge. If you can't put the ball in the fairways, the trees and dense rough can be penal, but if you play good shots, it rewards you.

Greens were very slow. Hasn’t been much rain at all so I’m not sure why they weren’t cut and rolled. Rough was thick. Overall course is in good shape…greens definitely need to roll better.

Rock hard greens!

The green were very hard, which made it extremely difficult to get the ball to stick on approach shots. They were, also, slow when putting. Not sure how they managed to do that, but it made for an interesting round. Otherwise, the course was in excellent condition. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone wanting an enjoyable, yet challenging round of golf

Nice course, good value

Course is in good shape. They've put some money into the place with new golf carts, and nicely filled sand in bunkers. Course is well maintained and ;plush. Greens, fairways, fist cuts of rough and sand traps all in excellent shape. I will play this course more times over the next few months.

Course management is not managed well…
1) don’t allow walkers before noon on weekends, but walkers are allowed on a holiday?
2) five-some was allowed out on a holiday.
3) no such thing as a course ranger

Expect slow play on a holiday, but this was very unacceptable!

Decent course but expect to lose a lot of balls even if you're only a few feet off the fairway

The grass outside of the fairways was very tall and had me and my two buddies losing balls left and right. Unless you were standing on top of your ball and looking down there was a very good chance you lose your ball because it's impossible to see. The fairways themselves were a mixed bag of lumpy and inconsistent grass length. Overall I like the course for the money but wouldn't pay more than $30 for it. Definitely has an "older golfer" kind of feel to it.

I had only two issues with my round on Sunday. First was they allowed a fivesome to play on a weekend. The group should've been split into two groups. They backed up a lot of other groups.
Second was an outing was also scheduled on that day. I was unfortunate enough to be between the fivesome and the outing. We waited on almost every shot due to the fivesome and was rushed on every shot from the outing. Made for a very bad round of play and, subsequently, a bad score.
Other than these two issues I had a great time on the course and will definitely be going back.

First Time Playing Good Park

played 9 and will definitely be back to play 18. Pins were in some tough spots which is normal for the cool temps and wet spring we have had recently. Enjoyed the layout. Hot Dog after the round was cold, but the onion rings were very good.

Course review

Honestly this course is great. However it’s hard. Not too great for beginners but I do recommend. Lots of trees and not much water. The greens are very hard for non experienced putters. The cut hard and are inconsistent with rolling. Just makes it harder. Most the drives are straight shots with a hard curve to the hole. The shots are very narrow. If you’re not a straight shooter make sure you bring lots of balls. No guarantee you’ll find you ball if you chop it!

Fast greens

Nice course. Great deal. Even nicer staff. Challenging dog legs and a good mix between wide and narrow fairways. Some tee boxes were real narrow, probably my only complaint. Shot a 81. I’ll be back to try and break 80
