Not for single handicap players

Course was very short and not challenging at all. This course is more for those who are getting into golf or just enjoy being out on the course. Single handicap golfers will breeze through this course without struggle. Not worth the money

Sunday Golf

Had a great round at Willow Springs. We played 18 in just under 3 1/2 hours. Started on 10 for some reason. Only issue is the tee boxes are not in great shape. Otherwise course is in great shape and the staff was very nice. Great value for the money for sure!

course management

Course needs to be maintained better for the price, rough is very bad, lots of patchy grass with clumps of grass, almost impossible to hit a shot out of. fairways were fine. greens need to be cleaned off. there was severe debris on every green. and the course marshal was not doing their job. i spent 10+min waiting at each and every home for the group ahead of me to tee off. nothing was done about the pace of play when asked to help speed them up.

Very good executive course .. and getting even better

Willow Springs is an outstanding executive course that is always in good shape ... even in the winter months. Great mix of par 3's and challenging par 4's and perfect for all levels of playing ability. New management team has made really great upgrades to both the course and facilities and the indoor golf simulator is perfect for practice and lessons. I'm going to scheduled some lessons with one of their 3 on-site teaching professionals to sharpen up my game for the upcoming season. Love the new upgrades and plan to play here more often.

Course play

This is the first time I have played Willow Springs in a long time. From what I can see they have improved the course quite a bit since I last played. Not as much trash grass as there used to be. Although this is February, the course was in pretty good shape. I am looking forward to playing this course once the weather breaks and the conditions are more favorable. Although Willow Springs is not a very long course it is very good for your approach shots and short game.

Staff was very professional and courteous. I would definitely recommend this course to others. Had a very enjoyable round and will return

Very crowded

Players on every hole making us wait on every hole. Players spent too much time looking for their ball and no ranger was on the course to keep the players moving
