A bit of a dissappointment
I booked my tee time via golf now and I thought it was a good deal. Here is the rub, when we arrived we were told by the golf cart attendant that we would only be able to play the front 9. Since it was prepaid through golf now there really wasn't much we could do, when I went to the pro shop the attendant said in a little bit of a sarcastic tone, I guess you heard the good news and informed me that the back nine was closed due to course reconditioning meaning they were busy aireating the greens. I understand that to keep a course healthy this is necessary. Most courses actually will close for a day or two, but they decided they would rather stay open and collect revenue for a less than desirable experience.
The front that we did play twice was not what I expected for the price we paid. The greens had been punched, but not sanded so putting was impossible.
I wish I would have known prior to purchase that we were not getting the deal we thought we were, we will not be back for any price.
They could have offered a rain check, I did not ask for one because I had already made up my mind that I would not go back and play. When you play a high $ course you expect a better experience. The cart guy was super friendly so he was the only good thing I can say about our experience.
Early Season - Still a great value
Its early April golf, and it was very wet, but the course was still in very good condition. Greens looked great. Staff, as always, friendly and courteous. At $55, this is a STEAL. Cant wait to come back when it dries up.
Course was fine.
Only issue I had were the tee boxes needed mowing. It’s early in the year though.
Not well maintained
Crabgrass in the fairways. Fairways torn up by Racoons. No grass in the rough close to greens. Tree lines not maintained for at least 3 years encroaching on the fairways and rough. Greens were not in very good condition. Lots of unfilled ball marks. Staff outside were not pleasant as they were in the past!!
Challenging but fun.
Great course, fun layout and in great condition. The staff was beyond friendly, pace of play was good considering we were a 2 some on a Sunday morning. My only disappointment was all the unrepaired ball marks on the greens. Shame on the people who play there regularly and are to lazy to fix a ball mark and help keep such a great course pristine. The greens rolled nice. They were quick and true but not overly fast. Look forward to playing there again soon
Loved It
First time to the area for us… took my soon to be college girl out. Loved the course, the staff, the woodsy path rides and the amazing homemade breakfast burrito at the turn! Great spot, little pricey but worth it.
Got deal special
Golfed here 15+years ago Front 9 so overgrown
Forced carries so overgrown vertically almost as if tee boxes should be 5 ft higher so you can see the hole. Greens and fairways good. Bunkers poor No one fixing ball marks. Driving range is worn and weathered Not worth 125$
Came back
Stay near course several years ago and play it. Came back with family for long weekend and decided to play again. Didn’t remember much about the course. Enjoyed the round and course. Thanks
Challenging course, friendly staff.
When we arrived, the course had NOT RECEIVED our tee time reservation via Golf Now booking.
Fortunately, it was midweek and a couple times were still available.
Very well manicured course and challenging.
Play at least once a year
Roughs are extremely long. It makes higher handicap players even hrder to make good contact so if you hit in the rough it will cost you at least one to two strokes per hole. Will only play if the group wants to play there.
Difficult
Course has unfairly tight fareways on 4 holes. The rough was so long that it was painful to hit some shots out of the rough. The greens were in good condition.
Disappointing
This course used to be nice and well taken care of. Was a bit pricey but overall was worth it. Now they charge even more and the course is in despicable shape. I would pay more than $35 for this. It’s sad to see the fall from grace and will be bought out for Pennie’s on the dollar by four winds eventually
You deserved 5 Big-Star .
So big wonderfully designed with natural woods,wetlands ,bunkers , 5 tee grounds and nicely manicured clean green( not damaged). Everything was just perfect Our team enjoyed very much for this time,because beautiful fall colors. NICE feeling on your staffs too. Definitely you belong to 5 stars !!!
SWTC
Very nice layout with friendly staff. Conditions did not match what they normally charge. Greens ran at a good speed and were smooth. The only reason I would not recommend this course to the average player is because the front nine will beat you up! If you miss a fairway you probably will lose the ball penalty for a bad shot is just to severe to make it enjoyable.
