3 hr round, thumbs up

my friend and I are quick players. the starter was gracious enough to let us go off the back and at the turn we got to get ahead of a group of guys on vacation. everyone was very hospitable and easy going. course will be in great shape shortly. needs some warmer weather. a couple of holes were wet but expected with recent rains. great hot dogs and beer only. local cabins would be a great value as well but didn’t get to check them out. overall great experience and will definitely be back

1st time in a long time

I have played at Ky dam many times in years past. Typically in years past in the dog days of summer the greens would burn under the august sun. NOT ANYMORE!
The golf course is in super condition. The greens are perfect! As good as any ive ever played anywhere.
Pace of play was not great. But on a nice sunday afternoon what would you expect.
I was very impressed with the course. I will definitely play again. I highly reccomended this course too anyone that wants to play a wonderful old golf course.

Great course. Don't miss it

Really good shape. Greens just right for amateur play. Follows ther lay of the land for interesting layout and challenges. Course knowledge may gain a couple of strokes. Going back next week.
Worth the drive from other end of LBL.
This was unexpected from a State Park and staff was very nicer Thank goodness it's like playing golf again with ball washers and no cup limiters and WATER to drink on thr course.

Beautiful resort course, great layout, challenging

I picked a beautiful fall day to play this resort golf course. The greens had been aerated weeks before the day I played but did not interfere with the rolling of the ball on the greens. Beautiful greens. The day I played the greens were rolling a bit slower than usual but I did not mind. I made the adjustment and I played on. The course maintenance crew was out blowing the leaving off the fairways. If one's ball missed badly to the left or right of the fairway into the trees, the leaves made it hard to find one's ball.

Fun fall golf!

It was misty and cool in the beginning. Rain quit so just cool. Course is in good condition. Because of the wind, there were lots of leaves on the fairway. It was easy to lose your ball in the fairway in places where there were lots of trees. Beautiful course!
