Disappointed!

I've played this course many times in the past, but on this day, the course was in the worst shape I've ever seen it. Tee boxes were all torn up, and divots were unfilled. It looked like they just held a scramble and didn't repair or move tee boxes. The fairways and greens were in reasonable shape, but there were way too many unrepaired ball marks on the greens.

The bunkers were horrendous. The ones that had sand in them also had knee to waist-high weeds. Several bunkers had no sand in them and were marked ground under repair.

In short, I will not be returning to this course this season.

Bunkers are horrible

Really need to fix the bunkers. They look like from an abandoned course.

Really Poor condition

Huge patches of dead grass. Even on the tee boxes. Most of the bunkers overgrown / wasteland.

Whisper Creek

All in all the course is in an average condition.
The greens are pretty slow and some bunker look like waste areas. On the 8th and 9th hole trees and bushes got to be cut. Even with knowing the course, it's pure guesswork where to aim for the shots. We were stuck behind a flight which didn't let us play through and therefore pace of play with 5 hours was far too slow.

What’s up with the bunkers?

Normally this course is in decent shape, but I don’t know what is going on with the bunkers. Most are full of weeds and rocks. It seems like they have given up on maintaining them this year. Greens and fairways were in good shape, but a few of the tee boxes were pretty rough. I guess that is to be expected with the dry conditions we have had this year.

Incredible value

This course is a great deal on TeeOffs. Everything about it was nice,except maybe the traps, but ummm...don't hit it in them! No better value on this websitethan this place.
