fantastic course with great people

Picked this up on a hot deal as we were traveling through the area. The staff was excellent and the course was in great shape. Challenging course with fantastic layout. Would definitely suggest the course as we intend to hit it on our way back thru.

Best course in the area

I play this course often. The guys at Trace's have this 27 hole complex in excellent condition! Of all the courses I have played this year, I have to say that Traces is in the best condition. The staff is very friendly and accommodating, I would definitely recommend that if you are in the area you should play it,

Beautiful Course

As a beginner, I don't know too much of the golfing lingo. The courses (3 nine holes) are located in and around a subdivision. Great play. Lost a few balls, expected to as a beginner. Had a great time and met some nice people.

Thoroughly enjoyed this course. Great golf great price. The only reason it is not 5 stars overall is it was very wet from prior weather.

Course was Immaculate!! Staff was okay except for the guy directing golfers to certain holes & places & times. He even got mad because we stopped to get a hot dog & use the bathroom after the front nine. Other than that, the course was Awesome!!!

Beautiful Course

Traces is an absolutely beautiful course, it is very challenging also. My only complaint is there was a guy on the staff who was rushing people to play in certain places & had a bad attitude. He was mad because we were ordering food & using the bathroom after 9 holes, instead of just telling the next group to go ahead. Other than that, it is probably one the top five or six courses I have ever played. This is a gorgeous golf club!

No title

The staff was great, the course is in very good shape, would recommend to any player at any level of play. The only problem is the golf now website, which charges an additional $ 5.00 per person when other websites only charge about $ 2.00. So what is the deal with that?

Great Condition, Fun Course

Played Meadows & Creekside. Fairways are in excellent shape. Greens are nearly healed up from being aerated weeks ago. Traces has done an excellent job keeping them watered. Speed of greens were just a tad slow, but true. Should be excellent in a few days. Course gives a good challenge and though greens are large, you better bring A game when it comes to putting. Staff always friendly & good to see the ranger out speaking to players & keeping pace of play in check.

Excellent Facility

What a great place to play golf. Got a Hot Deal to play for $18 and it was well worth the 30 minute drive. I have played several different courses this year including White Plains Country Club and Cheraw State Park. This course was far and away the best course and best value. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Being our first time playing there, the guy in the club house took us out and showed us where our course started and ended and provided information about carts, the practice facilities, and the inside grill. There are three 9 hole courses and you get to play two for your round of 18. He was nice enough to point out that one of the courses had just been punched and recommended we play the other two. We ended up on Meadows and Creekside. Both were in phenomenal shape. This was the first course in the last month that I've played on that I could actually stop a ball on the green when I hit one on. We did get backed up somewhat on our round towards the end of Meadows, but Creekside played through at a nice pace. I did not get to experience the grill aspect as it closed at 3 and we teed off at 2:20, but they still had sandwiches made and nice snacks to choose from. All in all, a fabulous course for a fabulous price and I will definitely be returning here again in the near future.

Great value!

Excellent course to play for under $20! Staff is very welcoming and eager to make sure you have a fun round. Practice facility is equipped with a driving range and also a spacious bunker and chipping green as well as a putting green.

Only criticism is the Woodlands greens are in below average condition but staff is working diligently to bring up to "par." Meadows was in great condition and presented a nice variety of unique and challenging holes. Will play this course again !

Very nice challenging course.

Played a round of golf during stop over during trip south. Fairways were a little dry, but otherwise the course was in good shape. Challenging layout especially being our first time playing the course. Pro shop staff was very friendly and helpful especially showing us where various items were located. Restaurant was very reasonably priced with great sandwiches. Definitely will stop again while traveling.

Lots of play

I played this course years ago, moved away and came back to town to visit. I personally think they have too much play, evident by the course conditions. Greens were matted down around the hole very much, driving range was nice. Not impressed with course condition
