Last round of the season

Tee boxes were in rough shape but rest of the course was beautiful. Greens were perfect. All the leaves were raked away. Ponds were gorgeous. Pace of play was about right. Fun day. I'll definitely be back in the Spring.

Slow

Nice course with some challenging holes but greens were were extremely slow and bumpy. Fairways and greens were covered with leaves..very easy to loose balls.
The grill is below average too.

Challenging Course

Course was challenging and a lot of fun. Bring extra balls, if you don't hit straight, Everytime, you'll need them.
Only complaint, bar closed at 6pm on Saturday. No sitting adding up your card with a cold beverage!!

Great Time

Whitney Farms staff was excellent. Being my first time on the course, I had some trouble navigating. The staff was extremely kind and patient in all my interactions. Will be back soon!
