Fun course recent green aeration left greens bunpy

The course is in good shape. Some of the fringe on the front nine are still recovering from a watering issue last summer. The greens were aerated within the prior 3 weeks and are still a bit bumpy. It was challenging to keep a putt on line. Thoroughly enjoyed playing the course. Miss the fairways by a few feet and you have to get lucky to find your ball in the thick unkept areas. Range is all down hill but adequate for warming up your swing.
Clubhouse is nice and has a decent selection of gear.

Fairways are struggling.

The fairways are in really rough shape. Greens aren’t bad but it was tough to get a nice shot when you are hitting off bare ground in the middle of the fairway. The carts are also terrible. Parking brakes are broken and on a hilly course, it’s not ideal. Staff was fantastic and friendly however so the day was fun.

Great value

This course is always fun to play. No 2 holes alike. If they got the fairways in better shape this would be a top 5 contender. It’s an easy fix but for some reason hasn’t happened. Worth the money!

They got some work to do

Title says it all. Very dry and bare fairways. Hard to find grass to roll ball to. It was okay for the money. Staff inside couldn’t have been better.

Wide open fairways

This course is perfect for an average player. Fairways are generous and most edges are sloped inward allowing for good bounces back in to the fairway on wayward shots. Greens were in great condition. The only negative about the course is the driving range. It's on a hill and very hard to dial in wedge shots.

Check-in was courteous and instant. IThe course fairways are coming in but many bare spots. Greens were aerated and a bit inconsistent with putting. Overall it was playable for the rate paid.

I was just thirsty

There wasn’t any water or cart service available on the course so after the front 9 we stopped to pickup drinks but there wasn’t anyone attending the pro shop. We did just grab some water with the intention of paying after we finished but we still couldn’t find an attendant.

Worst shape I’ve seen it in 3 years. Greens are long, tee boxes a mess, fairways brown and overgrown. Fantastic track but is not kept well lately.

Thank you for your comments.

Our fairways are a warm season, Bermuda grass. The Bermuda should start turning green towards late April to early May pending the temperatures.

We are keeping our greens height slightly higher to help promote root structure going into aerification on May 2nd and 3rd.

We look forward to having you back to Forest Greens and making your experience a great one!
