Very pleasant

This is not too challenging a course, but it’s very pleasant and well maintained. Also, it looks like they’re putting some decent money into course maintenance and improvements.

Unfriendly cashier and misleading information

Unfriendly hick cashier running the pro shop. Called and got no pickup when trying to schedule a nine hole tee time, (I only tried to call because there was only an option to book 18 here) show up with my dad at 5:00 and was told to walk if we wanted to play. Tee times are advertised as available with a cart online until almost 6:00 for 18 holes. Clearly not the case.

Apparently it's winter golf

I was impressed with the amount of rain that had fallen and how well it was absorbed by the course. In fairness the course was in pretty good condition.

I was not imppressed with the behavior of other golfers. And less impressed with their ability to keep a good pace of play. I admit it has nothing to do with the course itself. But it does say a lot about what is permitted on a relatively "slow" day at the course - there were not that many players on the course.

Course is not as bad as advertised.

Areas that needed some care are couple of tee boxes and greens but overall good value.

No bathrooms and holds water

I came up from Panama and heard a few great things about this place but it rained the day before but the fairways hold mass amounts of water very bad drainage issue. There are no water kegs or bathrooms anywhere on the course. The ball washes smell really bad too. I’d love to come back but for the price over 50 after taxes it’s not up to par with that.

Fun Course

Cottonwood is a fantastic layout. The staff is friendly and helpful. It truly is a championship design to me. Never seems to be in great condition but still a fun place to place. Tees and fairways are in good condition right now. Greens look nice but are pretty slow. Bunkers not so great. They are doing a lot of work around there so hopefully the overall condition will continue to improve.

Good for the price we paid ...

Cottonwood was originally an excellent and quite challenging course that was well maintained. It has been up and down in recent years and seems to be on the rebound somewhat as far as upkeep and course conditions. It is very playable ...
