Course in excellent condition greens need to be shaved closer little slow
Fun course
Course was in good shape. Only issue we had were the slow greens. But overall, it was a very fun round.
Fun time
The course was in very good shape. We had a great time!
Front and back starts
Played today. Nice course for the price. Greens a little slow. Was not aware they started on both nines. When I made turn after an early start ran into crowds teeing off.
Great time
Staff was very accommodating to us . Because of Covid 19, proper adjustments were made to course to allow a safe outing. Hats off to the staff.
A great day of golfing!
Had a Friday to play golf and chose Lake Blackshear Golf. Although our area has been drenched with torrential rain, the greens, fairways and rough were in great shape. The greens were in awesome shape and rolled true. A very challenging, very scenic and very fun course.
Great time.
Course was in great shape for January, even after a lot of rain recently. Staff extremely friendly. Can’t wait to play this course again.
Very enjoyable
My wife and I played the course to celebrate our 52nd anniversary. Course has a nice layout with adequate water, plenty of sand, nice greens. Sand traps were wet or full of water due to previous day rain. We stayed at a very nice Best Western in Cordele -- but also have stayed at the Lake Blackshear Resort. Both are super -- one of our favorite and economical getaways.
Great variety of holes and tee blocks for all levels of play
The course was in great shape , greens were fast and bunkers were in good shape .
Great Afternoon of Gilf
Pace of play was great and course conditions were pretty good.
Course was OK
The course was in about the best shape I’ve seen in 3-4 years. I will say that most sand traps were terrible.
Great golfing trip
My brother, my friend, & myself played the Ga Vet Blackshear course Sun morning. It has been about 10 years since i have played this course. The course was in good shape, the staff was very friendly & informative, & the golfing was very enjoyable. I look forward to playing this course again.
Awesome Golf Course in Southern Georgia
I have been playing here for the past couple of years and I always look forward when in Cordele to play a few rounds here. It is an excellent and well maintained Golf Course. Some holes can be challenging and some holes can be downright difficult. The pace of play is excellent and I love playing this course. I have both walked and taken a cart. It is much easier with a cart but i do love walking when i get the chance. Give this course a shot when in the area. You will love it.
Great layout
The course was in good shape. The course has an awesome layout. It’s a lot of fun and the staff is very friendly. I would highly recommend this course.
Very nice layout
The course was a great layout and great value for the money. The greens and fairways could be better but all and all an enjoyable round. Would definitely play again
Great course
I was in the area on business and found this gem on GolfNow. Course has a great layout. A good mix of tight and fairly open fairways. Greens are really small compared to what I’m used to playing, but I prefer small greens. My only complaint of the course would be that greens were slow and the fairways were hairy, but perhaps weather hadn’t allowed mowing in a day or two. If this course were close to home, I’d play it every week.
Important note: If you’re relying on the “map it” link in the Golfnow confirmation email to get to the course , it does NOT take you to the course, but to a neighborhood that is 9 miles away.
Great Course
I have played this course four times , never disappointed will play it five more times this trip before returning to Seattle.

Hello, thank you for taking the time to leave Lake Blackshear a review. We are sorry to see that your overall experience was anything short of 5 stars due to the conditions of the bunkers, but will work to make improvements we hope you'll give us another try in the near future.
