Good greens

The course could use some tlc in the fairways but the greens were perfect and for me that's the most important.

Enjoyable

The round was ok, you can tell they are at the starting point of renovations, but they have a ways to go

Willowick Gold Course

Some of the fairways were in rough shape. Looks as though they might have a gopher issue. The greens were pristine though. Very good condition. I do enjoy playing there and will definitely play there again soon.

Needs better turf management

I’ve played this course several times as it is a good price, especially when I’m treating my boys to a round. I don’t expect much for the price, but the condition of fairways, tee boxes, fencing and driving range leave much to be desired. Especially when compared to nearby low price options. I hope they get on course and improve soon.

Fairways horribly maintained

The fairways were horribly maintained! It was impossible to get proper footing. There were holes everywhere, hard dirt patches, too much dry grass, etc. This was our first time at the course and we will definitely not return

Tee box and fairway

Worst tee box and fairway conditions on any golf course I have ever played in my 57 years of playing golf.
They were in terrible shape and looked awful.
Greens were in good shape surprisingly
Will never play again

Seems to do the job.

I have played this course many times but not recently. Plan to continue in the future but never before have the fairways been so bumpy, even at slow speed. Also lost 3 golf balls in the middle of the fairway due to many indentions or actual holes, etc. Could really use some course management in the form of a marshall, even though the pace of play was good, had a single that came up on us at 15 and hit into us several times and when finished at 18 never saw the jerk come off the course, so he must of came late and tried to get finished so he could illegally play more golf??? Or just wanted to try to ruin somebody else's round.

IF YOUR READING THIS. DONT!

this is the worst course and it keeps getting worse. it is a scam to pay them 50+ dollars to play this course. there is no course management but they got new merch in the pro shop. YOU NEED OFF ROAD SUSPENSION to drive around the course or a serious massage the next day. PLEASE THIS COURSE NEEDS TO BE BOYCOTTED.

Greens in perfect condition

Great price with the senior rate, carts is in good condition, tee box are decent but can be better like being flat, level. Fairways and hit and miss with lots of animals hole that some are covered up but not flat, irregular grasses and uneven fairways. Area near the green have been much improved. Bunker are in the wet side and some areas of the fairways are over watered being a bit muddy. Green are green and in great condition.

Rough

The course could use some assistance on manicure care as several areas were bare but overall the course was fun to play. The worst thing is the bouncing while driving. No hole was smooth, it was rough and looks like a real mole problem to be managed.
