beautiful day for golf

Course was in pretty good shape this time of year, a little
muddy in spots that were blocked off, but it was a nice day to play.

Full 18 Great Layout

Finally got to play whole course, and boy, there's some challenging holes, but the whole course, even at this time is in better shape than any other course I've played this year. Greens run true, but are challenging. Tee blocks are the best I've seen. Fairways are fair, and tree lined making it necessary to hit it straight. Enjoyed my day very much!

GOING AGAIN!

Only got to place the front, got sick and had to leave, but the front nine was just great! Greens were nice and true, fairways actually had nice grass on them, and the holes were pretty challenging. Going again tomorrow and hopefully able to finish what I started.

Nice Improving Course

My second time playing this course, and the price was good, and from what I've been told, the course is a lot better than what it was before the new owners. There are some things that need work, but you can tell there's effort being put into the course to make it better. There are some pretty challenging holes, and some easy ones too. Lots, and lots of trees! People are friendly and it's been enjoyable playing with those I've played with these last two times. Will definitely be going back. The Price Is Right!

First Time Out in 19

Thought I had a single tee time, but was placed with three senior citizens instead. They were great, but the pace of play ahead of us was ridiculous! 10 to 15 minutes on each tee on the back nine. Tee'd off at 11:44 am finished at around 5:30 pm. Way too long and too hot

Family Day Slow

Love this little course and the staff here are very friendly and nice. My only problem is that I chose a day where there a lot of families playing which slowed the play considerably. I actually played a second nine, and it was a lot faster until the last two holes. I'll be back next week though, but most likely on a different day. For the time of year, the course was in pretty good condition. Thanks!

lots of fun

a very nice little course! For this time of the year, the course was in great shape. The Tee blocks were better than anywhere I've played this year, and the greens, though recently punched, were pretty good. The staff were very nice and friendly, I really liked the day even though it was a bit nippy.

Great Course/Lousy conditions

I've always love the layout of this course, but for the second time, the course was very wet, cart paths only, and very, very slow. Rough was was anywhere between 4" to 8". My playing partner and I lost at least a dozen golf balls on or near the fairways. It would have been nice to have a warning of cart path only on websites that offer tee times. To answer the above question of did I walk, the answer was more like yes & no. The cart didn't really get much use this time. This would've made a big difference. I couldn't finish the round because of all the walking. My back couldn't take it anymore. I will make sure that I call the next time before I make any tee times.

LOTS OF GRASS

In all fairness, the course did receive a lot of rain the day before which accounts for all the grass, but the pace of play and the confusion on who was on what hole on the back nine was terrible!
The bunkers were packed solid by the rain, which pretty much messed up the game. Enjoyed the day anyway with a new friend that I made there. Hope the course is better the next time, without the rain affecting it.

My Favorite course thus far

I really like this course, so much so that I travel a good distance to p;lay it, even though there are about 4 courses within 10 min of my house. The staff here have all been friendly and helpful. Jason, the manager is quite the guy. Very humorous and kind. The layout of this course has some very interesting holes that are easy to score on or balloon on. There are some very easy holes and some very hard holes. A good variety in my opinion.

rain rain go away

I love this course, but today, well, I had to quit after 9 holes. It got very muddy with water running across several fairways. Even though there were only supposed to be a little rain early, it rained from the moment I started and kept getting worse.

Every time I play this course is just a pleasant day! The weather has been perfect, the challenge is there on almost every hole & the staff are really friendly. I've only had one day where the pace of play was slow, but not this day. This is a course that offers you different challenges and makes you think about what club you will use. There are a variety of different approaches as to how you will attack the greens. It's a fun course!

greens were great!

I have played this course 4 times now, and I've come to love it! No matter what your handicap is, there is always a challenge ahead of you. Some really testy holes and some holes that are risk/reward. Everyone that I have talked with at Raccoon Hill have been very friendly and helpful. Appreciate the atmosphere!

great greens

Front nine tees need some work, but course is in pretty good shape even after storm. The greens are very nice and easy to putt on. Staff, anyhow the ones I've talked to, were very friendly and helpful. Love the back nine, which is the toughest, and is very challenging. I actually played it better in the three times I've played it than the front nine. Enjoy the course a lot.

Happy Golfer

My first time playing Raccoon Hill, and the first thing that struck me was how friendly and helpful the staff was to me. From the gentleman at the counter, to the young man for the carts, they were pleasantly friendly and helpful. The course was just beautiful and fairly challenging, yet very playable. The 13th and 14th holes were very exciting just trying to figure out how to play them. I've never played a par 5 that your couldn't use a driver on, or even a 3 metal. I had to use three irons because there are three sharp turns with trees everywhere! The 18th is a very scary, but doable par three. I will definitely be back, probably next week! Enjoyed the whole day! Even though it was pretty busy, the flow of the round was very good.

Several Challenging Holes

I really like this course and play it as often as I can. Most of the time the pace of play is great, but every once in awhile it get backed up. Mostly because of those who miss their tee time and then want to go off in front of you at your time. I yield, but, I'm not going to anymore. I always abide by the rules, but I've had to get after some that I get teamed up with for violating them. One 23 yr old literally drove across the green! I yelled at him and he said, "Oh, I didn't even think about it.!" There seems to be a lot of rule violations and bad etiquette. The rough was a little knarly this time, but most of the time the course is in great shape.

a great course to play

It's been over a year since I've played, so Thursday was a real blessing! The staff seemed happy to see me, and were friendly to me. The course was a little high grass wise in the rough, but it had received a lot of rain lately. The day was just beautiful and the courses greens were very receiving. This is the course that I play the most. I enjoyed the day immensely!

LOTS OF CHALLENGES ESPECIALLY ON THE BACK 9

I really like this course, and play it almost exclusively every year I've been in the area, about two years now.
The course is well kept, and last fall was just as good as it gets! I've only been out once this year because of all the rain. The course endured a lot of water, but was still in pretty good shape. Some tall grass in the rough, but that is to be expected as a result of weeks of continual rain. Two of the most challenging holes I've ever played, including 8 years in Florida, are the par 5 12th and par 3 17th. Man, they are difficult! Great price to play through Golf Now.com.
