Oak Hills Country Club
Played On 09/25/2016Mom & Pop Course
This is a nice little 9 hole course close to my home and with the Hot Deal a good value. The course was in OK shape as far as the grass goes but over it could use some playing improvements. The layout is easy to follow and directional signage is not needed but tee box signs with distance to the hole would be a great improvement and give this course some appeal. Fairways are marked in some places with very small colored sticks on one side of the fairway for distance but they don't seem accurate and are hard to view. When you get to the course the parking lot is one long narrow road with parking on both sides which forces you to walk a long way just to get to the pro shop to pay and get your cart. They should designate a few spots up front for dropping off your bag before you park. The pro shop has no sign that I saw even telling where to go to pay and get your cart. They should not assume everyone that plays here has played here before. The staff was friendly and an outing was taking place just before my tee time so I knew it was going to be a long day, which it was, but they were unsure of whom I would be paired up with. I will be back to play on a hot deal but not on a Sunday.
Coyote Run Golf Course
Played On 07/15/2016Pleasantly Enjoyed
This was my first time playing this course and me and my playing partner were joined with a Father and son to complete our foursome. The weather was perfect, our playing partners were great and Bob, the father, plays here every week. Playing this course for the first time and just getting back to golf this year after a long layoff made this course quite a challenge for me. The staff was very friendly and although we were running late and missed our Golf Now tee time by about ten minutes they were very accomadating. The course was in great shape with the exception of one or two greens pitted with ball marks. The fairways were very good and in certain areas the rough was a little long but fair and quite challenging. The beverage cart girl was visible but could have been more aggressive in asking if we wanted anything because we actually had to yell and call her twice after she road by. The day was very enjoyable and I will be back again soon after shooting one of my best scores of the year so far.
North at Hickory Hills Country Club
Played On 06/12/2016Good Time, Bad Maitenance
I played this course with my son who is a beginner to the game. We play at a slow pace but the course was vacant behind us and we never caught anyone. The weather was great the day we played and the whole week before, so the course maintenance was just neglected. On hole 5 the tee box was 2 inches tall and not cut in over a week. The greens were slow but seemed to not have been cut in awhile and were littered with tree debris and putting was difficult on some holes. The 9 hole course has great potential but needs some attention for sure. There were no ball washers anywhere, and holes near driving range have balls scattered all over the course. It was a good deal with Golf Now, but at full price, not worth it.
Green Garden Country Club - Gold Course
Played On 06/05/2016Cart Only Course
Great deal on Golf now, course was in good shape overall. Rough was a little long making finding errant tee shots hard. Greens were a little bumpy but not terrible. The reason for the title is the distance between many holes was the distance on a long par 5 hole so without a cart you will travel some millage.
I will play again when another great deal arises.
South at Silver Lake Country Club
Played On 05/15/2016Old Home Week
I have been away from the game for about 5 years and decided to make a come back. I came early and hit some range balls and practice putted for about 45 minutes. The course was in good shape but needed to be mowed in the rough in a lot of areas to make it easier to find my ball. (I hate fairways) I was also paired up with a father and son and we had a very good time and exchanged numbers to play again soon. The weather was nice about 55 degrees and partly sunny all day from our 3:12 tee time. The pace was excellent and we never caught up nor did anyone catch us. 4 hours and 15 minutes pace for the day. The staff was very friendly everywhere at the course and the whole day was as pleasant as you would expect. The reason for the title was I live very, very close (about a nine iron)to the course but never seem to find the time to get out and play. I will be back again very soon.
Hey "Daver611" thank you so much for the 5* review! We are glad that we were able to help reunite you with golf and hope to see us again very soon.
