Super wet Cart Path Onky

I knew glowing into the round it would be slow so I decided to walk as it was cart path only. Even though the course was soggy, it still played great. Enjoyed the day aside from the twosome with whom we were paired. They each shot a very slow 120. SMH

Nice course with usual slower pace of play

Played here on a Wednesday early afternoon hoping to avoid the crowds and usual pace of play slowdowns but it was still slow by the end of 2nd hole and straight through until about the 15th. It was a beautiful day though so very enjoyable. Tees, fairways and greens all in decent shape. Driving range is in good condition and they seem to have new range balls so that's a huge plus. Surprisingly, there was not a single ball washer throughout the course (and the carts don't include one either). The course layout is good, though and if you are located in Howard County, then the central location is fantastic.

Very nice course

I came here 4 weeks ago or so and the greens were being aerated. Now the greens are very nice. The other aspects of the course are well kept and nice a green. The starter was very nice and accomodating. We had such a great experience here.

Way overpriced!!

I play this course at least twice a year. Increased cost based on the pandemic and decreased value...off-season pricing for municipal level course was too high.

Really like this course

Challenging but fair. No houses on course except a few holes. A lot of forced Carries. Wide fairways. Fairways in great shape, greens need some work.

As with most courses spent much time picking up others trash and filling their divots. C’mon people !

Timbers in March 2022

Course is in very good shape for a March day. Weather was PC w/ temps in high 60's. Course was packed but play was on-par for a 4 hour round. The starter let me go early as a single in a cart. There was a very good single walker in front and then a group of 3 walkers, so I knew the pace as going to be slow w/ me riding , so I shifted gears and focused on pacing myself with extra tee shots, chips and putts to get for a realistic practice session. The greens, the traps and the fairways were all in very good shape, so Kudos to the staff on getting through the weather playing period. I stopped playing after 3 hours because I got my fill hitting more practice shots than actual play while pacing myself behind the walkers in front.
The best surprise I notice was that the greens were not full of DIVOTs which is normally the case after a wet and warming start to spring. So thank you GOLFERS and staff for fixing and maintaining the greens so others can enjoy. I will be back to play a regular round soon and I expect the course to only get better as nature wakes up from hibernation and errand shots become harder to find/play.

Perfect and perfect

A fine day to enjoy an outing with my group. We finished our outing in 3.5 hours with no one in front of us. The course was well-maintained so no problems. We can’t wait to play there again.

They don’t put punched greens on the app

I come here to realize their greens are punched but they didn’t put it in the app like every other ethical course does. They only care about money. They charge premium too even when holes are punched. Wouldn’t recommend.

Solid course, but pace of play is so slow

The course itself was a pleasure. Tee boxes, fairways, greens, and bunkers were all maintained very well. Solid driving range and chipping/putting surfaces. The only downside is the pace of play. It was painful. There was only one hole in the entire round where we were not waiting to tee off and also waiting to hit our approach shots. This includes after the turn where we took an extra long stop at the clubhouse to get food and beer.

Great course but pricy

Timbers is in pretty good shape but has some bumpy greens and chewed up fairways.
