Challenging Course

I have played this course often in the past but not recently. The course was in good condition - greens were excellent. Innsbruck demands accurate tee shots. An errant drive is probably a lost ball and stroke penalty. The course has a lot of elevation change and most greens have some undulation. It is a fun course to play, but be sure you have enough golf balls in the bag.

Great price special on Golf Now.

Great little mountain course

Overall the course is in great shape! The greens were as good as any I've played in the Gainesville area. They have updated to new carts with GPS. The staff was very friendly, in fact they gave us a better rate than I signed up for on golf now. We are senior players and he gave us that rate and saved us money!! I will play there again soon!

Potentially great course

This course is very hilly, with many narrow fairways surrounded by forest. It used to be a "best courses you can play" many years ago, but it is not maintained that way. The greens were in good shape, but there were too many poor or dirt areas in the fairways. Great value as the price is reasonable.

Excellent layout. Fun course. The wife really likes the course. Not a long hitter and can reach a lot of greens. Not a back breaker.

Specifics

The course is in a beautiful setting. For the most part it was in great shape. As a golfer, if one is not controlled, i.e., hooks or slices, it will be a long round simply because the fairways are quite narrow. The greens were just fine. The biggest drawback is the cart paths which were more than bumpy due to tree root intrusion and lack of maintenance. however, it is a worthwhile play, and I would play it again.

Tough little course

Tough course, must keep your ball in play or be prepared to have a few extra sleeves handy!! Mountain course with lots of elevation changes and tough holes. Favorite hole is the par 3 15th hole, it has a 200+ ft drop from tee box to green!! If you are around Helen make sure to bring your clubs and play a round!! Great and accommodating staff to help you out with any problems you may have, would rate 10 stars on customer service if GolfNow would let me!! Make sure to plan at least 30 mins for a lunch break, sandwiches are freshly made to order, and has a full bar if that is your pleasure!!

A must play course

A buddy and I came up from Florida to visit a friend and play golf. Playing the Innsbruck Golf Course was worth the trip. I've never a seen nor played a course like it. You're basically playing golf up, over and down a mountain. The elevations some of the tees sit at are amazing and hundreds of feet above the fairway or the green with some of the most amazing views. The course was in great condition. The balls rolled good on the fairways and greens. Some of the fairways were tight, but a miss hit could result in the ball either bouncing off a tree or rolling back into the fairway because of the high slopes on either side. We ate lunch at the clubhouse finding the food and service great. The pro shop had a lot of merchandise to choose from and the attendant was very freindly and helpful. I hope to play this course again. I would recommend it to anyone looking for something special, which you will not forget.

Narrow and Hilly !!

Although I normally drive the ball only 210-220 on flat courses at sea level, I played from back tees and really enjoyed the course. A number of tight driving holes and lots of up, down and sidehill lies in the fairways. Played on a morning after a night of hard rain and course was very playable although carts restricted to cart paths. Be sure to club up on uphill shots to greens because ball can come rolling back if you are short. Some nice deals in pro shop!

Tight courses , good challenge

This course is always difficult to keep it in play but fun to make you think about club selection and shot making, not the typical pull the driver and hit straightaway. Some of the fairways in rough shape but greens and overall nice course!

Trying the course

Course is set up nice and beautiful scenery.
Greens are in good shape. That being said, half of fairways are in bad shape. Could hit a good shot and ball ends up in dirt crevices in fairway. Need to have work done

Thank you for the kind review of the setup and greens. The heavy snowfall (for our area) this February has left portions of the fairways lagging behind the rest this spring. They are healthy and greening up more and more by the day. We hope you have the opportunity to play us again when the course is greener!

Very Interesting & Unique Course

I played the course in early April and the fairways were still brown. It was cart patch only as a result. The greens were in very good condition and putted true. The course is narrow and the changes in elevation are dramatic. I enjoyed my game tremendously.

Greens have just had aerification

Besides the aerification of the greens the course played great. My second time playing here since they got the GPS carts. Nice for knowing how far from the hole you are but the creep down hills and bare moves at all if you get off cart path.

We are glad you thought the course played great. I'm guessing we had the carts slowed for rainy, wet conditions. Hopefully we can order up some sunny, dry weather for your next round with us.

Epic scenery

Second time playing here. Greens were in great shape. GPS on carts was a great help except when it told me I was off the cart path and slowed me to a crawl for about 70 yards (I was actually on the path). In the fairway is a MUST. If you look for your ball in the woods, you will find 5 or 6 while in there. Will play this course every time I am in the area. Great value, nice people and wonderful scenery.

A challenge for me.

This course is a challenge for me as I am not that good, but I still like to play it because of the challenge. New carts with GPS are a great help. Keeping it in the fairway is a must as the edges of the fairways is the edge of the mountains. Nailed it on 15. Not much wiggle room. The staff are professional and courteous. Other players at the course were very friendly and courteous also. I enjoy this course.
