Horrible

This course is not worth any amount of money spent. Honestly, just pay a little bit more and go to a decent one. It takes the joy away from Golf. I won’t play this course again. I don’t know how they can actually charge people money for what they offer. Fairways greens sand traps. Everything was horrible. The pictures will speak for themselves. I promise you you will not regret spending another 20 or $30 and playing at an actual golf course and spending an entire day on having fun this course really irritates you if you wanna play golf.

Better than Expected

It was a great day of golf, greens were in very good shape. Fairways were perhaps a little dry, almost like a concrete, but it is due to the season.
Great value for the cost.
Fun lay out.

Good value

Despite it being a very busy Sunday, pace of play was excellent. Greens were in superb conditions and fast. Tee boxes, on the other hand were really bad. Most were as hard as concrete to the point it was hard to find a place to get a tee in the dirt.

Slow Pace, Fair Condition, Not Worth It

Pace was horrible, constantly waiting 10 min per hole. Fairways were dry and firm with lots of roll out into hazard due to excessive slopes. Tee boxes had no grass and were covered with sand. Greens were very firm, but rolled ok.

Ok Course

The course was ok. I think $84 is a stretch on a Saturday. It was your typical Ga course in March hard fairways and bare spots. I have to say the greens were in good shape.

Course maintenance

Greens were in good shape, the tee boxes had bare spots and the fairways were in rough shape. A good landscape enhancement is needed.

Good value but slow play

The course has some spots that are in repair but the greens were in great shape.
Pace of play was slow from a 4some in front of us and no golf ranger to move them along. The place was packed so it’s not like they could not afford one on a Saturday.

Good challenge, but some holes need attention

A few holes, the fairways have washed the grass away and these areas usually gather balls.

need the management of the players

The course was so good and it was good to start at the on time. However, the players in front of me played too slowly, and they hit the balls twice on every course.
The people behind me hit the ball even though I was on the fairway, and the ball fell in front of us.
There was no decency there and no manager to tell it. It's a good golf course, but it seems to be poorly managed for players.

Nice option, but slow pace

I play TC Appalachee, once or twice per year. Great layout, tight fairways, good elevation changes, but it ALWAYS plays slow on weekends. The back nine has 5 groups acoss three holes with no rangers on Sundays. It would be fun to play if not so painfully slow

Slow pace, they need to spread out the tee times

Don’t start on time because they need to space out the tee times a little more instead of trying to jamb so many players on the course. The greens are in good shape, the course layout omission ok except for hole 10. An average shot into the fairway rolls hard left into a dirt patch and drainage area.
