Olde Point Golf & Country Club
About
Olde Point Golf & Country Club sprawls across a rolling landscape covered with mature trees, sparkling blue lakes, and meandering streams. Native vegetation is abundant across the gentle hills. It is a course that is both scenic and challenging. Built in 1975, it opened to the public a year later although members enjoy guaranteed tee times. The many water features all over the course come into play frequently and there are also strategically placed bunkers lurking beside the greens. The doglegs are no easy feat either. From the championship tees, the golf course is a formidable test that requires well placed shots but the three other tees provide a gentler game that is more approachable for beginners. In addition to the golf course, Olde Point also has a grass driving range as well as chipping and putting greens.

Greens
Greens are in poor condition. Somewhat recovering.
Greens were terrible ridiculously slow. Tee boxes very uneven and very wet fairways with no run whst so ever
Very wet
The front nine was close due to excessive rain and the back nine was very wet and had cart path only. The staff is extremely nice but couldn’t refund me because I prepaid. So I stuck it out.
Bad greens & tees
Feel bad for them…years ago this was a great course….
Facilities were amazing, course left a lot to be desired.
Pros: The restaurant and bar were very impressive. The food was reasonably priced, high quality, and was a great serving size for the price. Pro-shop staff was friendly and courteous. Helped to explain the course and what to expect. The locations of the driving range and cart pickup were conveniently located.
Cons: The course was in desperate need of attention. The tee boxes were overgrown to the point that sometimes it was hard to even see the markers. (Pictures attached). The greens were also in rough shape some had complete bald spots that were almost completely mud. Both issues in my opinion were not just do to rain or weather as it had been great weather but appeared more from neglect. Also, the drainage was not very good as there were some puddles on the fairway deep enough to lose a ball and had clearly been there for a while, and absolutely not intended water hazards. while some fairways had the grass-maintained others had grass high enough that it was easy to lose a ball in the fairway. To the point that I found 9 random balls that were in the grass just off the fairway (2-4 inches) just on the front nine.
Conclusion: For the price it was fair, I did not feel like I had overpaid. However, had I not gotten a discounted price, I would have been more disappointed. I would return for the food, but not for the course. I feel this is a fair review, and would not recommend it.

Getting there!
I have played this course many times over the last 30 years. It has changed from good to mediocre as well as mediocre to pretty darn good. I think it is currently moving on up! Most of the greens were in really good shape. Much slower than bent grass but clean and green. The tee boxes needed mowing and some tlc. The fairways were not bad on most holes. I enjoyed playing there and will return.
DO NOT PLAY WASTE OF MONEY
This golf course is not worth the $50. Will not be returning very sad to see it falling apart. Tee boxes are not mowed fairways in rough shape greens not cut playing very slow. The carts are old and messing up.
Slow greens
Fun round. Good course layout. Greens were long, bumpy and slow. Possibly due to recent storms and 90+ degree heat.
Greens were very slow and rough. Tee boxes needed lots of attention. The design and layout of the course could or maybe was, very good at one point.
Bad day at Olde Point
Very disappointed to play in such horrific conditions. No tees mowed, greens out of control heavy and bumpy, areas around traps completely let go. Have a feeling this place cares more about the pool and restaurant than the course. Such a shame as the layout is quite nice. Lots of potential!
Good golf course
Played golf on Friday at 11:00 a.m. . Had lunch at the 19th grill and it was delicious. Payson play for the round was under 4 hours and the overall layout of the course is very good. Once you adjust to the slow greens this course is worth the money.
Not great
Course was in horrible shape, yo are better off hitting the ball in the rough than the fairway which has no grass. When you get to the turn we tried to call in our order but phone rings busy so had to live with a bag of chips because they were “busy”. Both golf carts we had were hit and miss with moving. At times it was quicker to walk than ride. When we turned them in after our round we told the person there that there was issues with the carts he said he knew, “ a lot of the carts are like that “. While the rate we got through Golfnow was relatively cheap, save your money and play elsewhere.
FAIRWAYS
Grass is coming back, but there were dead grass clippings in clumps all over the fairways, stopping your ball from a good roll.
