tight

The holes and fairways are very tight here. We had people hit balls into our fairway several times.
It was too narrow for my liking.

Much Improved Course, Dining & overall Value

Course in much better condition,... especially the greens after last treatment and seeding. A good value for 9 or 18 holes. Nice dining and restaurant service as well.

decent greens

The course was dried up and not much green grass. It had a few tight holes and most of the greens were elevated. It played short because of the bare fairways. The greens were slow but in pretty good condition. Very few sand traps on course , It needs some TLC.

A nice day in the country

Went out with the wife for a relaxing round at The Abbey Course. Was greeted with the beautiful bells from the real Abbey. Staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. Greens were in great shape, the fairways were more like the rough on most courses. Fun layout, tranquil setting, great deal from Golf Now. We will be back.

Hot Day to Golf!

The was was very hot, but clear, blue skies. Don't forget your sunscreen. The Abbey is a great small, beginner course. For the $15, its worth every penny. My wife took me for Father's Day and enjoyed every minute. A couple of the holes dog-leg pretty tight, so your tee shot is key (#6 and #8) otherwise, you're in the woods. I will return!

I had a good time

Now for the price I was not expecting much. Its a great course to bomb around. Fairways are rough and firm. So you will get a lot of roll on them. Greens were good. If you do play it for the first time a few holes are not marked well on how to get to the next tee box. A few well placed signs would help correct that. Over all I did enjoy my time it wasn't crowded and I finished 18 holes in 2.5 hours. I believe I will play the course again. This course is great for shorter hitters and those new to the game.

Lovin' the Par 6

Nice course to play at....reminds me of courses in England. Not extremely manicured! Has just enough rough edges. The Abbey Pub is a great place for brews and food afterwards!

AlwaysEnjoy

We always enjoy the Abby probably because we have played several timesand know it so well. Our level of play does not rrequire a championship course.. It is a short course, the fairways are very poor this time of ear but the greens are better than many of the courses we haveplayed

This is a fun, short course w/ a very interesting & unique lay out.

12:04 tee time w/ Leah for $10.70/ea thru GN.com. For the price, what conditions do you expect. Tee boxes not great but playable. There are no roughs. Grass on fairways & rough is a St Augustine caribou type but makes for playable lie. Much better than hitting off dirt. Greens are small postage stamp. Putts slow but rolls true. Couple of holes scary such as hole 1. Just left of green is Hole 4 green & just to right is Hole 5 tee box. A poor approach shot could hit someone putting on 4th green or teeing off on 5th tee box. The Par 6 10th is actually just normal length Par 5. It is a fun course & no 2 holes are alike. Gas powered carts w/ windshield but no rain cover in back. Restaurant had good food for decent price. Will play course again for approach shot/short game practice.

The staff is out of this world. They are always friendly and helpful. My son loves this place. The greens are in good shape, not too fast. The bells will put you at ease.

Church Bells and Farmland

A friendly course in good condition. A bit out of the way. Might need a guide to find your way from some greens to the next tee box. Wide fairways. No out-of-bounds. Overall a very nice day.

Nice Day Out

Played the course on 11/5, was a super cheap fee, but when at the course they had over-seeded and were to cut the grass on 11/6. Greens were impossible with grass higher than a USA quarter. Fairways appear to be St. Augustine grass - different experience. Pace of play was fast since you really could not put. Staff was great. Nice day out and the oak trees were magnificent. Not a memorable day of golf.

Qwerky but fun

Quiet little country course. Layout is unique to say the least, but that's part of its charm. The price is great and it's worth the drive to play this course.

Sunday Morning Golf

When it wasn't lightly raining, the weather was perfect to play golf. The rain was off and on. You can't beat the price of the Abbey. Enjoyed playing on Sunday morning. I will return.
