Poor fairways

Due to the rainless summer, the fairways are too hard with big cracks- damaging for the clubs and results in thin shots. Back 9 was slightly better. Overall not very well maintained course.

Very slow pace of play.

Expect this to take 5 hours at a minimum to play. The last 3 holes were 90 minutes.

Better Than Expected

I have played Greatwood several times but this was my first round this year. My expectations were not high going in due to the extreme heat and no rain that we have been going through here this summer. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised on how the course looked. The practice range had good grass to hit on. The cracks in the ground, while present, are much better than this time last year. The greens played fast and were in good shape.
Overall, course is in good shape given the weather. I believe it holds it own against similarly priced courses.

Tuesday Afternoon at Greatwood GC

This course did not honor TeeOff green fee of $34.64 rather I was charged $37.00 - even after showing TeeOff reservation confirmation with the $34.

Good value

Greens are in pretty good shape. The bunkers need some work. Many golfers leave the rakes in the inside the bunkers.

Overall good value & a challenging course.

Horrible conditions and maintenance

The course was in awful condition. Tee boxes were so hard you couldn’t get a tee in the ground. Boxes were also messy with piles of broken tees. Facilities were old and not maintained well. Staff was unfriendly. Female bartender was on the phone sitting on the couch when I walked up and when she came over to the bar she stayed on the phone the entire time. Plenty of other courses I’d play before returning here.
