The views are really nice

I've always enjoyed playing at Tanglewood especially midfall coming to 10 11 and a few other ones that you can overlook the back side of the country and the colors of the trees it was late Summer and the greens were in the best condition most of that's because people don't know how to fix their divots anymore and have proper golf etiquette but overall I'm always happy to go to Tanglewood

Awful pace of play

We came up for my bday to play a new course we do it every other weekend and this is one of the worst in ky for pace of play we have found they let off however many people off at one time tee times don’t matter first come first serve but they never said anything about it we played 9 and it took us 3 hours so we left and went and played a full 18 at home in the time it would’ve taken us lol bad owners I’d say they have no clue how to run this place

They try

A good value. The course layout is tough. They had scrambles going on that day, and the pace was slow, but they warned us it would be.

Pace

Nice course. Good for the money. However the pace of play is very very slow. I’ve seen as many as 9 people in one group (5-6 is common). It doesn’t seem to be regulated at all in terms of pace of play.

Straight, Rolling Hills and Tight fairways

Greens and Fairways well maintained... I wasn't to thrilled when the sprinklers were timed to go off while we were playing but the greens were in good shape. Very busy weekend with Father's day, so I imagine the speed of play would be different on other days.
Also the only course I've ever played at that didn't have a driving range. I wish that could have been there as I definitely needed the extra practice.

Lots of blind shots

Course was in good shape. Greens were excellent. Tough to play for first time due to many blind shots and lots of sloped fairways.

Tangelwood

Worst golf course I’ve ever played. Wouldn’t come here until they get a staff that honors a tee time. We had a 10:30am tee time. Show up at 10:10. There’s 8 groups already on the tee box waiting. The front desk people said “it’s become, first come, first serve.” Took us 3 hours to play 7 holes. We didn’t even finish the front 9. We left. Won’t be back. Save your money
