Good value for the money

Worth the $30 you’ll pay for a round. Very laid back people and play. Course itself is really rough though. Ground is very very hard and the ball will roll forever and often takes very bad bounces. Sometimes a drive landing in the middle of the fairway will kick in random directions and go out of bounds. Can be frustrating since not all landing zone are in view of the tee box turning a great drive into a two stroke penalty for a lost ball. Greens are the same and a missed putt long will continue to roll for a mile. Sands traps aren’t worth playing out of. I take free drop from most of them.

However this is a fantastic learners course. If you are just starting for been gone from the game a while I highly recommend this course to tune up. Typically not very busy and the people are nice.

Great greens, Friendly people

The greens are in great condition and everyone you speak with is friendly and welcoming. No waiting made for a quick round. The only issue is the bare patches on the fairways. They need seed and water.

Hot Day Golf

I always am thankful to be able to be on the golf course regardless of weather. Although it was very hot (93) the course could have been in better shape. The tee boxes need a lot of work, they were bare of grass & uneven. Tee boxes should not be the challenge of the fairway. The fairways were bare in spots. On the plus side, the greens were in excellent condition. The reason I would not recommend this course to a friend is that I haven't enjoyed a round there because of the poor conditions of the course. I will at some point play this course again. It deserves another try, however, after the 3rd strike, I will not be back if it doesn't improve the conditions of the course.

Cheap tee time for a reason

Not even 6000 yard course from the tips. Horrid conditions pretty much on all 18 holes. No grass in fairways. Greens are way to long. Have to absolutely pound the ball on any putt. Pace of play was the worst. 5 min wait on each hole, at least. Last time South Granville gets my money. If you want a fun place to get drunk and horse around for 4 hours, this is your course. Nothing appealing to anyone that cares about golf.

Quick Round

The pace of play was great, with hardly anyone on the course. Greens were good, but grass was sparse on the fairways and they needed water.

The Worst Course in the area.

The staff was very nice, but that is all that is nice at South Granville Country Club.
It is the worst course that I have played in the area.
The greens were ok, but the rest of the course was unplayable.
Fairways were like something from a nightmare that continued with the tee boxes matching the same nightmare.
The course layout is awful and the yardage is not even close to the tee markers yardage or what is the mysterious yardage listed on the scorecard.
I would not be back even if it was free to play.

Course conditions were just ok

I wish the course was a little better maintained. Maybe it’s still early in the season but lots of dirt spots. Traps were not sand.
