Great Value

Greens were in the best shape that I could remember. Some fairways need the same amount of attention. But overall enjoyable place to play.

Greens are in great shape

These were some of the best greens I have played on in a long time. While their clubhouse is a little dated, there is plenty of room to sit around and tally your bets. They could elevate the "off-course amenities" rating by having TVs that work to watch the US Open after the round.

Solid course for its price

I was surprised of the conditions considering it was only 28 bucks. Greens were rolling nicely (just a bit slow which is usual at this time of the year). Overall conditions were really good. Great value course and nice little challenge. Fairways are mostly wide open with a couple of fairway bunkers that come into play. Greens are small which demands accuracy on your approach shots. If you can get to play under 30 it’s a bargain.

Great course, great value.

Fun course. Pace of play was slow, but given it was a holiday weekend it was perfectly fine.

Great value for the course and the amenities.

Would definitely recommend and play here again. Need to try the other course Firewheel has to offer!
