Flat track where the wind will test your game

nice flat track where the conditions are above average. fairways and tee boxes are full of grass and trimmed nicely. putting greens are large with slight undulation however the speed is inconsistent. their putting green is much faster than on the course. tee times are busy but the players here keep up with the pace. this course can get difficult when the winds pick up. you can definitely overpower the course if your driver swing is on point.

Green condition was good

This course has a tendency to be dried out because of excessive wind. However, the course I found was in very good shape for this time of year. Greens Were really nice and were in very good condition. I would recommend this for a value added Golf Course.

too much drinking

hard to focus on golf when the other golfers and focused more on drinking than golf. thankfully i was able to move past them after seven holes because they were playing so slow.

Good to be back. Great place to get past the covid blues

Poplar is open layout. The wind decides if it’s an easy course perfect for beginners and families to get away from shelter in place all the time...or a Bay Area challenge against 30 MPH gusts that turn the par 3 12th into a driver hole.
Come out and enjoy. It’s well worth it.

Good course. Good value.

This is the first week the course has been open since the SIP and it was in good condition. The staff made sure that the tee-times were spaced out so each foursome could play without much contact with other players on the course. Me and the guys in my group had a good experience.

Fun course to play

Used the hot deal from golfnow.com. Teed off at 12:30 and finished at 4:50. Played in a foursome. The course was in very good condition, the staff was friendly, and the other three players were good to play with. This is the typical experience when I play Poplar Creek.
