wow

by far the worst conditions of any course I have played this year. Got a last minute deal, walked it for 17$ and still may have overpaid. Fairways have nothing even resembling grass. I get its been a dry summer but this was next level. Stay far away from this course.

Excellent Greens

Nice hole layout. Smooth consistent greens, with a few challenging hole positions. Definitely doing this course again and bringing a friend.

Can be challenging but in rough shape

I enjoyed playing this course. I was not happy with how the fairways were all the grass was dead and it was like playing on concrete. The greens and fringe areas were in good condition. The difference between the blues and whites was a huge challenge and it made the course very exciting.staff were very friendly and Marshall's were excellent.

Greens were in great shape but the fairways were like the parking lot. Tough to hit off. Also, the carts were covered in mud which is unfortunate since it’s $20 per rider.

If you’re starting out, it’s a decent value course.

Stay away

This course is rock solid. Hard to differentiate the fairway from the rough as it’s all brown and rock solid, and hasn’t been watered in months. Tee boxes are full of sand, and uneven. Expensive once you factor in the insane cart prices, in which no carts have windshields and every cart has duct tape all over the seats. This was my last time playing this course and hopefully anyone considering saves their money and plays many other local courses that deserve your hard earned dollars.

grossly mismanaged

you are better off playing off the cart path or hazard zones than the fairways, dried up and destroyed never have i seen a course in such poor condition. On the 18th hole at about 8:20 pm, marshal was practically kicking us off the course, very rude dude with a bag full of comments about us still being on the course, meanwhile there were still a group or 2 behind us. I can just imagine what he told them...

Rough shape

The course could use a lot of maintenance. Playing from the fairway is like playing off concrete. Greens are in good shape but that’s the only upside. Tee boxes were rock solid and unlevel.

A 4 out of 10

Second hole had last year's leaves still on the edge of the course. The tee box and greens were excellent but the fairways had no definition.
The golf round was 28.25 (good) but they were charging $30.00 for a below average car with no windshield or rain flaps on the back.If you want a cheap course, it is OK but for a good golfer, this course is below par.

Cheap rate...... Smoke & Mirrors

I haven’t played this course in years but saw SO many poor reviews I just had to see it for myself. First off. I love walking but I play with my 70 year old friend who has to ride. I paid $38 after tax and he paid $68!!! $27+tax single rider rate! Ridiculous cart fee for a cart with no windshield and duck tape on the seat. Any course charging more for single riders is ripping people off!! As for the course. It’s been well documented that the fairways are horrible. They’re dead. Seriously! We got back to the club house at 7:15pm. Had to use the washroom but club house was already closed!!! Nice job Scenic Woods. Not!

Course is like concrete

Fairways are like concrete. They need to water them. Lucky I didn’t break a club. I could’ve played in the Canadian tire parking lot for free. Same terrain

Kinda Rough

Not in very good condition. Fairways are weeds and a lot of missing grass. Several tee blocks are in poor condition. Greens are decent. Not great considering courses in the vacinity.
