First time on Evergreen this year. Course was in good shape. Greens were rolling true. There were a couple of greens which had ground under repair. Other than those couple of eyesores the course was good. The beer cart lady was attentive and visited us numerous times, and it was needed and appreciated.

A beautiful wisconsin day. Found a hot deal for Coachman’s and gave her a whirl for the first time in 2023. It was nice. Greens were in great shape. Rolling true. Course was a little wet which explained the overgrown roughs and tee boxes. I don’t think mowers were able to mow much because of the rains preceding my tee time. But overall I was impressed. Pace of play always can be an issue here. There is no rhyme or reason to which nines are played and when. It’s be nice if those folding 18 would know that it will be a red blue day or a blue white day etc. it always annoys me when I need to deal with new guys on the turn who pop in front of me. This isn’t new. I’ve dealt with this for the last 6 years golfing here.

So, good conditions. Same kind of management. 4 out of 5.

Course was inconsistent. Some greens were rolling, others were slow. The pace of play was ridiculous. 27 holes could not space this amount of people out? Guess not. Almost 5 hours for 18 holes.

Evergreen has been on my list of courses to play since moving to southeastern Wisconsin. I took a deal on TeeOff and was able to secure 18 with a cart for $31. Once getting assigned the East course and the North course, the round started and the layout was discovered. Evergreen uses a fair amount of doglegs as well as a good number of short par fours. I only hit driver 4 times over 18 holes. A driving iron or a long iron off tee was all that was needed. 200-220 off tee set you up for a short iron into the green on most holes. Par 5's both were gettable in two. I got par and one birdie on all of them. There are not many direct hazards to hit over on the East and North courses. There is a ton of lateral hazards, out of bounds. The course could play tight at times.

Overall, great conditions, great time. I played the East in 2 hours because of the people in front of me and the group in front of them. The North course was about the same, 1 hr 45 mins.

One thing that was missing. No beverage cart. With all the people on the course, it was surprising that there were no beverages being sold. Missed out on making money on that one.

I had booked and paid through GolfNow, which was great, but when something popped up in my day, I was able to arrive early and Coachman, although they didn't need to work with me, did. I am very thankful to their flexibility. Course from the white tees was short. Blue tees are pretty well normal. Greens were in great shape. Fairways were in great shape. Rough was adequately long and at times hid your ball from plain sight. Overall on the White and Blue course, things were great.

The course was in excellent condition. Pace of play was 2 hours per nine. Not good, not bad, we were stacked up. Greens were rolling true and smooth. Not a very long course. The need of a driver off tee is minimal. I only drove it 4 times on 18 holes. The other par 4 holes were all driving iron 220 yard shot getting into a pretty position on most every hole.

I golfed the East and the North courses. It would have been nice to have drinks sold on the course. I didn’t see a single soul selling anything. Unfortunate. Money was to be made. Missed out.

Overall, this course is 30 mins from my house. I booked a hot deal on GolfNow and tried it out. I was not disappointed.

The course is well kept aside from some pins that need to be moved. The fairways were nice as long as you could find them! The layout is challenging because it isn't your normal Wisconsin 18 all strait and lined with trees. This was dog leg city. Thinking on the tee was normal. Large trees in play if you play a draw or a fade, depending on the hole. Greens were nice, rolled true. Not many ball marks were repaired however. If you can control your driver, you should be fine. Any falter with the driver will put you in for a large score on the hole. I'd play here again.

I have heard this course advertised on the radio, and I have always wanted to try it. I finally got around to doing it and drove more than an hour to get to Glen Carin and was disappointed most the day. I was disappointed that their website didn't make anyone aware that they were aerating the greens WHILE I was playing. The pins were out on the majority of the front nine. I had to drive to the green, look at the green and discover where the hole was hit my approach and then count two for putts and walk away. The greens had a nice quarter inch of sand on them. It would have been nice for the course to announce their schedule which would affect their customers.

Thankfully the back nine was untouched and was much better. The greens were fast but soft. The fairways were hard as a rock and offered quite the roll for big hitters. The course layout was unique. I wasn't impressed by the course though. there was nothing special that I was wowed by that I would ever go out of my way to golf again. The greens like I said were ok, fairways were ok, the tee boxes were poor to fair. If you are close by I understand why you would golf here, but there are definitely better courses around in New London and Waupaca.

Golfed on Labor Day. Course was in OK shape. Fairways were nice, but the greens were slow.

The course if you can book it as part of the "Hot Deals" then it is worth your money, that is, if they have enough carts for you and you don't have to wait over an hour to finally get a cart and tee off.

To be frank, the management of the clubhouse was below average. The treatment by the young staff member in the clubhouse was rude. The only shining star seemed to be the pro there, who worked his tail of in retrieving as many cart as he could for the people who were there waiting.

After a long round of 18, we decided to roll into the bar for a few and no one served us. We walked out and took our business elsewhere. A fitting end to a dismal performance to those in the clubhouse.

As I said, nice place to play if you wouldn't have to deal with the incompetent staff.

Played here on vacation. Booked a special on GolfNow, couldn't pass it up. The course is in great condition. The weather this year has been perfect. They seemed to have made some improvements to the draining system as well since the course was nice and dry without any pooling water.

The greens were the highlight of the day. Not overly dry and hard, just right. You would read it and the green would do exactly what it looked like it should do. A good putter would have a blast on this course. The fairways were well cut and rolled nicely. The sand was all freshly raked. Their seemed to be drinking water on every other hole.

This course is only a few minutes away from where my inlaws live. When you book via golfnow, you can find some super deals. The course itself is quite nice in the spring and fall. The summer of 2013 is the first when I saw an entirely green course. This past year was the best condition that I have seen at Honey Creek. The greens were fabulous, the fairways were neatly trimmed, the sand was nice and soft. I normally put in 18-54 holes here per summer depending on cost and time. 2013 was by far the best year for golf here at Honey Creek.

Branch River is a nice course carved out of a modest chunk of diverse land. The front nine is a bit boring, not much creativity with the use of traps and hazards. The Par 4's usually were doglegs which were guarded by mature trees. the par 5's were of some distance, definitely reachable in two for the good long iron player. Par 3's in the front are a bit boring as well. Not all too creative in design, but they used the land they had.

The back nine offers a much different look to the golf course. You finally play around and over the "Branch River." The back nine starts off with a bland par 4 but following that there is great variety in the play. Elevation changes, more doglegs, a bit more adventurist type par 3's. The back nine definitely will make you think more than the front nine.

Overall this course is nice. The tee boxes are leveled well and well maintained. fairways look beautiful, and the rough is manageable. The greens however are horrible. Granted I golfed on May 14, after a long winter and a slow spring, but the greens look like they have been stricken by disease. there were only a handful of putts that I hit that rolled remotely true. much of the greens are burnt out, patchy and brown. Maybe this is something they are trying to fix, but i didn't see any evidence of seeding or stripping or work being done on any of their most horrendous greens.

Like I said, overall nice course, would be even better if they figured out what was plaguing their greens and fix it.

This course is one that will challenge any style golfer. It isn't horribly long from the whites, but if you would like to play longer irons, tee off from the black.

The course itself is laid out pretty plainly. No real huge doglegs or blind shots. The water is in play and placed in very challenging places. Par 5's are reachable in two for an accurate 3 wood striker, but to the rest of mankind not too straight off of fairway, playing a par 5 in regulation is best.

The par 4's are 380 - 430 yards off the white tee. Pretty straight. Any slice or hook will most likely find the mounds lining the fairways in the summer these mounds will be longer grass and very difficult to play from.

Overall the course is a challenge to all players of all types.
