The greens

The greens are always in excellent shape . I wish the fairways were in better shape. Is a good nine hole course.

West nine

The greens are always great. Hoping that one day the fairways would match the greens. From what I heard the course is a Donald Ross design.

Bad Attitude and NO respect

The guy at the front had a nasty attitude. He kept coming up to us and telling us “drive up to the ball”. Buddy we were 5 yards away from the ball. And then told us to play 17 and 18 and then 1 and on. But when we got ready to play 17 he threw his hand in the air blaming us for only giving us 1 min to get ready to tee off on our first hole. Made us move to hole 1 after that, very disrespectful and wouldn’t go back again at all.

Fun 9 holes

I enjoyed the course design on the par 33. A couple drivable holes and a long par 3 that plays downhill were the highlight imo. Conditions are average, but certainly better than some short courses I've played.

Great Practice Course

I love coming to this course when i don’t want to spend too much money playing and just want to have a good time playing. Great course for all skill levels. No Par 5s so i think of it as a fun practice course. It’s a 9 hole layout but you are able to play it multiple times. Some spots are in rough shape but the greens are usually really nice.

DO NOT BOOK ON THE APP

GolfNow overchargers by 9 bucks per person, and then they did not even send the money to Plainfield West 9. So I still had to pay in person, which was way cheaper. Then GolfNow would not even give me a refund, instead got someone from Plainfield West 9 on the line to talk to me. Luckily everyone at Plainfield West 9 is great. They helped me and I really enjoyed playing at the course. Next time I will call the course directly to book a tee time.
