Good wide fairway golf.
Don't go the HWY 35 route if you can help it. This course is just off HWY 72 and HWY 79. Just outside Scottsboro, Alabama.
Best Staff Ever
1) There are two Goose Pond courses. I missed my tee time because I went to the wrong one...my mistake. The staff at Plantation covered for me and actually put me out ahead of a large group. Even the large group of golfers were extremely nice. 2) We all know course marshalls can have a stigma for being jerks. However, my man was one of the nicest people I've ever encountered on a golf course. 3) Even the maintenance guys (who usually look like they hate golfers) were really friendly even though I play fast and ended up with them on the back nine as they were finishing up daily grooming. As an outsider just traveling through, I was treated like an old friend, thank you Goose Pond staff.
Awful course conditions!
The course should NOT have been opened today! It was wet, soggy , muddy and cart path ONLY! Totally unplayable! I’ve been playing this course for 30 years but driving an hour to get there today and paying the GolfNow green fees was not worthwhile! A total waste of time and money!!!
Consistently Good
Some people might say that the cart paths at the Plantation Course are in rough shape and the carts are old and dilapidated.
Others might complain that the crackers sold in the clubhouse are stale, or that the course is a pretty pedestrian layout.
But nobody will ever say that the greens at the Plantation Course aren't excellent or that the course is poorly maintained.
That's what you can expect at the Plantation .. good fairways and good greens. And that's why I keep coming back.
Enjoyable, scoring course.
Always a good time at the plantation course. The greens are pretty small, but run purely. Find them in regulation, and score all day. Confidence building course.
Somewhat Challenging
I like this course. The greens had been sanded so putts were not rolling true. Normally are so much faster. Played after the rain and the course was still in great shape. For the price on golf now hard to beat the price
Good course.
The course is in good shape overall.
Only complaints I have is that the greens are cut too short and dry. It's hard to play any shots close to the green because they would either roll out super fast or now roll out at all.
Second, the fringe was wayyy too thick. Needs some trimming. Almost impossible to chip out of it because it was so thick
Everything else was great. Tee boxes in great shape and fairways in great condition. Fix up the greens and fringe and I will be there every weekend.
We enjoyed.
Got play to hangout with your buddies and play a round and have a drink
