Old Orchard Country Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Opened in 1929, Old Orchard Country Club has a classic design with challenges that stand up to modern golf courses. Throughout the course, you'll see traces of the site's former use as a farm. Ancient apple trees from the original orchard frame many of the holes. The diverse layout will test you with a variety of different shots but the gently rolling terrain makes for an easy walk. Skill and strategy will be generously rewarded but it's not an overly punishing layout for the high handicapper. Old Orchard's greens play true and fast and they are often flanked with strategically positioned bunkers. A stream wanders through the golf course, coming into play on several holes. Golfers will face a tricky island green on the par-5 seventh hole as well as an almost-island green on the par-4 13th.

Course needs attention
The course played like it hasn't been looked after for quite some time. Dandelions and weeds in the fairways, some were thread bare in spots and others were overgrown a bit too. Rough seemed neglected, overgrown, with patchy clumps, needs to be cut. Greens scarred with bare patches, bumpy surfaces, embedded stones, uneven grass coverage. Tees were overgrown, like teeing up in rough. Traps lacked playable sand. Nice looking track, with proper care it can be a nice place to play. Staff was nice too, but in it's present condition, very hard to score well. Putting was guesswork with all the bumps, balls bounced as much as they rolled. How hard to hit a putt was guesswork with how many bounces would be involved. Hard to hold a line with all the bumps. Needs proper attention.

🗑️🗑️ Terrible conditions, Golf cart died, Teeboxes were like Normandy, Plinco greens
I recently had the misfortune of playing here and it was an absolutely terrible experience from start to finish. First of all, the carts they provided died on us. We had to walk the course, which was exhausting and took away from the enjoyment of the game.
To make matters worse, the back 9 holes were closed for maintenance, which we were not informed of beforehand. This left us with only half a course to play, which was a huge disappointment. And even the front 9 was in terrible condition - the grass was long and unkempt, making it difficult to hit decent shots.
Overall, I would not recommend this golf course to anyone. It was a waste of time and money, and the lack of functioning carts and poorly-maintained course made for a truly unpleasant experience. Save yourself the trouble and go somewhere else to play golf.

COURSE IS ATROCIOUS
Worst course I have ever played. Miserable tee boxes, can’t tell the difference from the rough and the fairway, greens were god awful. They should be allowing people to play this course for FREE.

Course Conditions
I loved the layout of the course. However, the greens and areas around the greens were some of the worst conditions I’ve seen. If your goal is to work on your putting while playing, go somewhere else. The tee boxes need a lot of work too.

Worst conditions
This had to be the worst maintained course I have ever played on. From tee box, to fairways, to greens and bunkers. Horrible.

Good course but needs TLC
The course it great and challenging it the greens are pretty beat up. Could be a great course if they took better care. For the money it's fine.

Made me pay extra
I placed an order for my tee time there and it said it was going to cover my green fee, and cart fee. But then when I got there I they made me pay again and said my GolfNow tee time was just a reservation when it clearly didn’t say that online. So I was vey confused.

Disaster alert
I played here years ago and I remembered an island green and great holes. While the layout was good I can’t say enough how poorly the course is maintained. I chipped from about 30 yards away to a green and my ball disappeared down a hole ON THE GREEN, literally disappeared down a hole. NOTHING was kept up. Weeds in the bunkers, dirt in the tee boxes. Fairways blended into the rough and the greens were maybe the worst I’ve ever played. Such a disaster. Not worth the aggravation of actually trying to play on a course this poorly maintained. Golf now should dis associate themselves with this course. It’s embarrassing..
