Blue/Red at Ives Grove Golf Links

front nine, 2.1/2+ hours to play, it was a Sat. afternoon, back nine, a little quicker. Fun time, will be back.

Found it on Golf Now and gave it a try. Well worth it, excellent conditions and provided enough challenge for novice golfer.

I like to come out here a few times each year. I has a good time feeling whenever I'm here. Always think I can do better, but the course doesn't let you get passive. Great value with Golfnow, fun course.

This is a good course for the money. I would recommend. The club house grill could be better though.

For the $25 rate on golf now (that the clubhouse manager was not happy about because it was supposed to be $35) for 18 holes riding you can't beat the value. The course is nothing special, pretty simple and wide open. Great for the higher handicapped duffer like me. The only difficulty out here is that every green is surrounded by 2-3 bunkers so make sure you bring your sand wedge. The course is well maintained , especially in the spring and early summer. Ives has a tendency to get dried out in later summer due to a lack of irrigation. The staff is friendly. The clubhouse is decent. We got out earlyish (6:50) played blue-red and didn't have to wait anywhere. We had great weather and enjoyed a fun round.

The course was in beautiful shape, especially for a muni. Fairways short and firm, greens were smooth and fast. Teed off at 11:00 with four, finished in 3.5 hours, never ran into another group.

As dry as it has been the course was in very good shape. Going in the middle of the day with a high of 90 there was no one in front of me until the 16th and they were moving well.

We started early morning when there was much dew on the ground. They had freshly cut the fairways and rough. This made for good play. As the sun came out, the greens got faster and a little more difficult. Because of the time of play for us, we managed to finish the Blue Red course in under three hours. This was terrific.

The course itself is pretty good. A lot of bunkers, so it makes you keep it on a tight line. So the course itself is a pretty good course. The only issue is how they send people out. My tee time was for 10:30, and didn't tee off until 10:40 due to the amount of people. Made the turn, and there were already two groups waiting on Blue #1. I was part of a twosome...and we both hit it decent and don't take a lot of time. It took us 5 hours to play 18 with a cart. The marshall was on the course, telling people to speed up the pace which was nice. But waiting about 10 minutes on every tee box was annoying, and this is when we had another twosome join us after Blue #1.

Greens and tee boxes were great shape. The course played long from the blue tees. Got a good deal on GolfNow. Would go again.

I've loved the course and its terrain and fescue hazards over many years so I was excited to play for such a great golfnow price. I booked as a single as did someone else and we were over 15 min early so they made us ride together since we checked in at same time. They said we couldn't have separate carts because they needed the carts for a big outing. Sounds legitimate until we see a single rider 3-2 holes behind us. Us two got first 9 done in 1 1/2 hours but took 3 hours for back nine because they let other twosomes start on that nine ahead of us. We were courteous and appropriate to have that group join us, but were much slower. The two of us with separate carts could have decided to play together or separate and not slowed any play seeing that there were not groups before us. Sometimes people choose to golf alone to work on parts of their game during the round and be professional enough to not hinder pace. I understand when circumstances mandate that, but to be inconsistent and not applicable to the reality of the number of golfers when teeing off , of which there were none , was unprofessional. Otherwise the round was great and I'm thankful that Ives grove offered the times and rates on golfnow. Thank you for the format.

Course was in good shape, greens were moderate, had a good time.

Excelent shape.Very slow play, 4 older gentlemen wouldn't let 2 guys playing from the blues in a cart, go through. Personally, I think this takes away from the game. So many, so called golfers have zero edicate.

The course was in great shape. The greens were awesome. Played 18 holes in 3.5 hours.

With having 3 nine holes red, white and blue. I assumed we would play blue to red. Not the case though. Was not impressed with the white 9 holes but I will give it another chance

Course is good for walking as there are not too many hills, but there are enough hazards to make it interesting.
