The course has a fun layout which is visually appealing! We started on hole 9 ???? And I wasn’t a fan of that hole since it was our first time there! Blind hole ! Greens were aerated probably a couple of weeks before and were still not fully recovered. Enjoyed the round and would definitely return.

Course has a fun layout, plays a little long maybe for some. Greens were in good shape, overall a solid course.

The course was in good condition as always! The problem was there was a Womens college tournament in front of us that was allowed to use carts and it wasn’t cart path only…..so WHO IS TO BLAME WHEN A ROUND TAKES 5.5 HOURS . PLAYERS COACHES AND COURSE ALL NEED TO ADDRESS THIS . TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE,!!!!

Oak Valley’s greens were in very good shape but slow! Most of the rest of the course is good but there are a lot of bare spots . Overall for the price it’s a decent deal, just plan on taking relief in places that aren’t marked for it !

Callippe is one of my favorite tracks to play when I visit the Bay Area! Shot makers course which is usually in great shape…only 4 stars this time because of all of the rain this winter. If it’s your first time there it might seem unforgiving but once you learn the course it’s a fun challenge.

Todd in the pro shop was extremely nice attentive and helpful !

Turkey sandwich was also very good!

Hiddenbrooke was a joy to play with a good mix of easier to challenging holes . Highlight for me though were the greens. Very quick, undulating, smooth as glass.
Hiddenbrooke should be on your must play list in the bay area!

The grounds keepers have been busy this winter ….. must have cut down 100 trees which will allow much needed airflow from holes 11-15 , should help out in the fairways and greens ! The course and greens were all in very good condition for February.
Negatives which seems to be a Walters management issue at all of their courses are the sand trap conditions, most are unplayable
Last issue which seems to plague golf everywhere these days is “pace of play” why are rounds taking +4.5 hours to complete when it’s not cart path only!

I hadn’t played Spencer T Olin in 3 years and I thoroughly enjoyed the course again, it is a fun challenging course. The course was in very good condition considering it was the end of November, especially the greens which were smooth and just quick enough. If you haven’t been there in awhile like me I’d get there soon and enjoy this nice public course.

Always consistently in good shape and one of the best bargains in golf around St Louis.

Course is overrated and average at best . Seems like half of the course is roped off and cart path only which leads to a very slow round. Supposedly sold out but no ranger or starter which let a foursome in front of and behind our foursome break up into 2 threesomes and 2 singles . Pace of play has always been an issue

Bulk Park will never be a 5 star course…BUT for a muni, it is and always is, a consistent 4 star course. Greens are always good , pro shop always has Titleist and Footjoy products priced below retail.

Just a very good consistent course at a reasonable price!!!

Annbriar is just a great course and layout.. greens were a little bumpy from aeration but will be good in another week or two. Fairways and tee boxes were immaculate, keep it in the fairway as the rough was extremely tough.

Acorns will never be a great course but it is one of the most consistent courses around St Louis. . Even though most courses have jacked up their prices because of Covid demand , Acorns remains a good deal for golf, food and beverages. If you haven’t played there I’d give it a try.

The course has a fun layout of different shaped holes. It’s a 3.5 course mostly flat for the area it’s in so if you have bad knees like me it wasn’t to hard even though we played after a big rain and it was cart path only. Overall fun course for a reasonable price. I’d go back again!

Being a course on the island is a huge advantage compared to having to drive an extra 30 minutes each way to play golf on the mainland. The course like most courses is getting an enormous amount of play, so finding really good deals are tougher during peak season. Course is in pretty good shape. Greens are a little slow for a premium course. , like all courses would really benefit from people fixing their ball marks.! Still overall I recommend playing here !

Course is always in great condition considering how much play it has been getting in the last year! Greens are firm and fast . Bent grass fairways are so much nicer then every other Bermuda grass fairway in town. For sure worth playing if you’re in St. Louis. Highly recommend!!!

I hadn’t played the Orchards in 3 years and I have to say the course was in very good shape. The greens were in very good shape but could have been a little faster for my liking but I do understand it’s been in the 90’s everyday for a week with no rain . Course has a good layout of of different shaped holes. There are 5 tee boxes so you can make it play for anyone. It’s a 45 minute drive for me which is why it took me so long in between rounds, but we enjoyed it so much our group is going to play it much more regularly. A big plus also was that our foursome played in 3 1/2 hours. Highly recommend !

The last couple of years Stonewolf has had some greens keeping issues, but they now have the Head greens keeper Steve from Gateway and you can see the many new projects being addressed around the course. Including beautiful new white sand replacing the old (dirt sand) and continued aeration , seeding and sod placement around the course

Currituck is by far the best course in the Outer Banks ! The winter fairways are dormant but the greens were in great condition! Pro shop staff were very nice and friendly. Got there a little to close to my tee time so I couldn't warm up on their driving range but the practice putting green is huge and also rolled quick and true. You won't be disappointed playing this nice track !

I’m playing in a outing here in October so I wanted to play the course before and I’m glad I did ! I believe the course is much better then some reviews on golf advisor. The course has a lot of little nuances throughout and is a shot makers layout that was fun to play. The greens are nice, and the fairways can be on the narrow side. Holes 12 and 13 are two visually beautiful and fun holes to play. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. The course could use aeration on tees and fairways and they could have better distance markers around but I will be coming back again ASAP
