Looking back at the 4th green. I really wish the course was in better shape. Photo submitted by Back9Ben on 08/05/2017

I'm always a fan of playing from the back tees when they are tucked up in some trees above the fairway like here on #8. Photo submitted by Back9Ben on 08/05/2017

This course has horrible upkeep.
If this course was taken care of properly and was maintained like a 5 star golf, then this course would be one of the best in the valley. Has a fantastic layout and has some of the best views of the valley for a mountain course. Just poorly taken care of.
Great price for Play
Packsaddle is a great course, with a lot of great looking golf holes. Have played here a handful of times and they’re steadily getting the course back to original greatness. If you like a challenge the Blue tees are for you here. Great layout and not a ton of opportunities to loose golf balls. All around great time even if you play by yourself.
Great Layout Poorly Kept
Love the way this course plays, but certain things are not well kept suck as the cart path. It was a bumpy ride in between holes, some greens were very patchy as well as bunkers filled with water
Apparently they have recently reopened after Covid shutdown so course not as pristine as when played 4 years ago. Stunning views and hope they are able to return to their pre-Covid conditions.
Do not play this course.
The course is recovering from being closed. Horrible shape.
Great course!
I played this course a few times a couple of years ago and always liked it very much. They closed the course after Covid hit and recently reopened. The course was in good shape except the greens have not come back completely, but they weren't too bad considering the course had sat there for over a year neglected. It is good to see the course reopened and I plan on playing it several times this year.
There is something special about the course, great layout and beautiful views. I love it! I would play it more often, but it is an hour and a half drive from where I live. If I lived close by I would play there all of the time.
Make sure you bring plenty of balls, if you miss the fairway you will be in trouble on a lot of the holes.
Shadow of its former self
Granted I hadn’t played this course since 2005 but it is pale in comparison to its former glory. The course was always challenging due to the elevation changes and narrower mountain fairways but it was kept up and beautiful. Now, the greens are in terrible shape, not a single rake in bunkers, no sand for divots at tee boxes or on the cart for fairways. Carts are also old, & clubhouse felt like a ghost town. After GolfNow’ processing fee it worked out to 53.38 a person which this course is way overpriced. Lakeview, or Shenvalee are much better options if in the area and using GolfNow. Some positives are the course wasn’t busy and the area is gorgeous with lots of wildlife which was enjoyable.
Getting better
Ordinary played in the late 2000’s when newly opened
Apparently financial issues saw the course conditions deteriorate. The course is well designed and original amenities top notch
Management is working hard to bring conditions back to the hey day.
Eel worth playing now as the prices are reasonable and the course is in improving condition.
Not very friendly to handicap individuals. Huge walk up to club house to get carts. Cart should be at the bottom.
challengeable
He was so kind and course was so beautiful.
Only defect was the inclement weather of sleet and 30 miles of gust.
But we enjoyed it so much.
Thanks
Coming around
This golf course is really coming around. I played it in the middle of summer and the course was overgrown and greens were in rough shape. I know they just opened back up and seem to be heading back in the right direction.
Course review
Very difficult course but overall a lot of fun and a lot of great views staff was very friendly and very good food
Horrible
This is one of the worst courses I've ever played. The greens are horrible horrible the fairways the grass is about 4".. We'll never play here again
Not taken care of
The tee boxes look like they haven’t been cut in over a month and the rough was so tall it was practically unplayable. Use to be one of the best courses in the state and has turned into the worse. Very unsatisfied and doubtful I’ll return.
