Bacon Park's greens were still recovering in August 2018, but they have plenty of interesting contours. This is the 15th. Photo submitted by TimGavrichGP on 11/07/2018
Bacon Park- Okay for the price
While we are playing the course was under a major renovation so my opinion is clearly derived from how we saw this course on the day we played. We were given the option of playing the first nine holes twice with cart or walking the back nine due to refurbishments, we chose the latter. There was also a few bachelor parties and blitzes on the course this day so the rate of play was absolutely glacial. Price was $40/person so it was nothing to complain about; I just wish I had a better first experience since I live less than five minutes from Bacon Park.
Greens are in rough shape
Course is easy to play..wide fairways, minimal hazards, not too long, grass length of rough not a problem. However, the greens were in terrible condition. All had large spots of bare ground
Hello, jhull62. We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review. We would love to know how we can earn those last two stars next time! Thanks for playing Bacon Park Golf Course.
Worst course I’ve ever played and not even cheap!
Easily the worst course I’ve ever played. Literally had sand traps and mud holes on at most of the greens and it looked like the pine needles hadn’t been blown off in days. Couldn’t tell where fairway ended and rough begin. The attitude of the old man behind the counter was even worse than the course. I paid more to play here than I pay at much nicer courses. Won’t be back.

Please Fix Greens
The greens are terrible, it’s like putting down a dirt path except worse with craters and bare spots everywhere. I like the course layout and just about everything else but when it comes to loving the sport, nothing ruins it worse than bad greens management. A drinks cart wouldn’t hurt either, seems to be common at other golf courses.

Average at best
After playing Hunter the day before, and being a Ross course, this place was a let down. I’m sure at one time this was a premier course and would have been a lot of fun. Greens were terrible. Layout was boring and it would have been nice to know as first timers that there was no water available on the course and that you don’t go by the clubhouse at the turn. In this case you really don’t get what you pay for.

The greens were atrocious (not playable). The course should be closed!!

BAD CONDITIONS
BACON PARK IS OVER PRICE FOR THE CONDITION THE COURSE IS IN. THE GREENS WERE ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE. THE YOUNG LADY WAS NICE. THIS IS THE ONLY THING I HAVE GOOD TO SAY ABOUT THIS COURSE. HOPE YOU ALL GET IT ON TRACK, BECAUSE I WOULD LIKE TO PLAY IT AGAIN.

Could be nice
The greens were fast, but in bad shape. There were a lot of dead spots, but most of the time rolled true. Due to the bad spots some of the pin locations were in unfair places, but that have to put them where they can, so I get it. It's a short course, so great for the short hitters, but bring your short game. For 60 bucks I thought it'd be in better condition. They seemed to have 18 other holes that were closed. I"m sure this was a great place back in the day.

If I could rate it a 1/2 star I would
Absolute worst course we have ever played. Paid $90 for two seniors and I think the conditions were such that the course should not even have been opened. Almost every green was severely damaged, fairways were like cement. Very little maintenance done. Donald Ross would be mortified!!

No greens
Course is ok but the greens should be retitled because there is none.

Golf course abuse
One method for controlling Poa annua is by using a pre-emergent or post-emergent herbicide.

Donald Ross would roll over in his grave.
So much potential so little care. Greens are horrible. Tees are terrible. Fairways are serviceable. There are so many better options. Henderson, Crosswinds, Southbridge, Blackcreek, Sapelo Hammock just to name a few.
Be advised if you want to use the practice greens you must sign in. I was told they need to know who is there.? For a public course they sure are snooty.

Winter refuge
The conditions of the course were moderate in as much as it is still winter. Was worth the price for 18 holes with a cart.

Disappointed
This course is in need of some true love! The greens are horrible ! For the course to be owned by the city, the greens alone should be playable! I know it’s winter time but other operators in the area seem to have playable surfaces.
