Decent for a muni

This is your basic muni course, expecting anything else or complaining it to anything else is just not fair. The greens were fun and challenging. The fairways were wide open with a lot of roll. The rough wasn’t rough at all. The back nine was more fun, especially dodging range balls on the 10th fairway, which is basically the landing area for every shanked ball from the driving range. All in all this was a fun course. It’s a little pricey for what it is but still cheaper than the nicer courses. I will be back, if I can’t find anywhere else to book.

Fairway was too hard. Maybe insufficient watering.

Disappointing Day on the Greens

As a dedicated golfer always on the lookout for new courses to challenge my skills, I was excited to tee off at Arrowhead Country Club. However, my experience left much to be desired, and I feel compelled to share my disappointment.

First and foremost, the course maintenance was severely lacking. The fairways resembled unkempt lawns more than proper golfing terrain. I lost count of the number of times my ball disappeared into patches of overgrown rough, never to be seen again. It's as if the groundskeepers had abandoned their duties entirely.

To add insult to injury, the facilities were outdated and neglected. The clubhouse resembled a relic from the 1970s, complete with musty carpets and worn-out furniture. Even the restrooms left much to be desired, with questionable cleanliness that left me hesitant to even wash my hands.

But perhaps the most egregious offense was the lack of hospitality from the staff. Not once did I encounter a friendly smile or welcoming attitude. It seemed as though they couldn't be bothered to acknowledge the patrons.

In conclusion, my experience at Arrowhead was nothing short of a disappointment. From the subpar course conditions to the dismal facilities and lackluster service, it's safe to say that I won't be returning anytime soon. Save yourself the frustration and seek out a more reputable establishment for your next round of golf.

Horrible Experience for Junior Golfer

Drove an hour to golf at Arrowhead Country Club with my son. I booked a tee time for an adult and a junior golfer. I arrived at the course and went inside to check in and pay for our round. Horrible management advised my son is not welcome on the course due having jeans on. I told them we we unaware of any dress code requirements and were not advised when booking our tee time. The rude staff member said my son could not play unless I purchased shorts from them. Keep in mind it was a cold day. I told him I would not be purchasing shorts for him on a cold day in order for him to be able to play. The staff member would not make any exceptions so we left the course and will never be back. On the way to the parking lot we saw at least 5 golfers wearing jeans. Apparently they just don't like kids.

My son loves golf, and is part of the First Tee and Youth on Course programs. Keep your junior golfers away from this horrible course. I didn't appreciate explaining to my son why he couldn't play at this course.

Arrowhead Country Club is an absolute joke with horrible management.

Great GolfPass value

Great Value. Course is decent shape, greens are very good. Bunker rakes (ALL OF THEM) need replacing. Better if they weren't even there. Splinters from fiber glass and wood are not fun.

what a value

Great reception from staff. t time was as advertised. Can't beat the value. Only problem is the rakes in the bunkers (I found quite a few of them) were all broken. Fiber glass shards and splintered wood. No good.
But the golf was great.

Not great for value or enjoyment

Greens had some rocks, patches everywhere since no one fills in divots, tee boxes were not great, and the greens were incredibly slow. Not only that, pins were in some ridiculous places, and if it's your first time playing this course, then you'll be surprised at seeing water in places since you can't see it off the tee or on your approach. Not great and do not recommend.

Nice afternoon

Nicely placed course that has a few streets directly adjacent to the fairways. Beware of your slice! Had a nice afternoon playing. Caution on hole 10: it plays paralle to the driving range. So, many balls on the fairway. Very friendly guy at the pro shop. Will return to play again.

Fairways need work

Greens are in decent shape, bunkers are not too bad but the depth of sand is inconsistent and rakes are not at every bunker. The fairways are beat. You put a ball in the middle off the tee, the lie should be decent.

Good old track and good value

They sent me out earlier than I thought which was good. Played very fast but relaxed. Caught up to a couple of guys and I joined them and we had a very nice day. The greens are small and have slope and well bunkered. A good test for your sand and chipping and putting game. They need a fence on the right side of their driving range and a sign that tells you there may be golfers teeing off to the right of you when you play the 12 hole. The cart path takes you right in front of golfers teeing off if you don't look right.

Should be better

I keep coming back to this course because of the availability of open time slots, then I start playing and I remember why I don't come back that often. The Tee boxes and fairways continue to be in terrible shape. This is unacceptable for the price they charge. This course should be in much better shape and I have read posts in the past where they promised to improve the conditions but year-after-year, nothing changes.

Very disappointed after we arrived the course for an hour driving and were told that course closed in that day. The course notified all players but GolfNow and TeeOff ‘clients.

Great golf course

This is a great golf course. The fairways are really forgiving and the greens always play fast. The grounds keeper and staff maintain the course very well.

Pricey for the conditions

First of all I love the history of this place and the layout is great, but the course is a far far cry from its glory days as a private club. It looks like new ownership has came in but spent money in weird places like putting in solar canopys in the parking lot instead of fixing the fairways or trimming some of the dead trees. All fairways were a mix between hardpan and patches of grass. It had just rained so the course wasn't in its best shape but for the money they are charging ($74 weekend morning) it would be nice to hit out of some grass from the fairways. Hopefully ownership can start investing in this place where it needs it because I like the course and the layout and the staff is great as well.
