This was my first time playing Walker, and it certainly lived up to it’s reputation. The practice facilities are top notch, and the course itself is quite pleasing to the eye. My only marginal complaint would be my surprise at the condition of the greens; I would have thought being so close to the lake they would not have been as “crunchy” as they were. Granted our tee time was in the early afternoon and it was a warm day, but they still seemed rather dried out, which made them even faster than what I would assume they normally are. As I said though this is a minor issue, and it certainly won’t stop me from returning hopefully in the near future.

Being fairly new to the area (~1 year), and having played most of the courses in my immediate area, I thought I would branch out and try someplace a little farther away. Saw this place on GolfNow for a good price/good time and decided to give it a try.

The course, at least from the appearance of the pro shop, seems dated. The pro shop is bare bones, and the man working the counter barely looked up from whatever he was doing to acknowledge me. Practice facilities are just so-so, and the course itself is fairly typical of the “housing development built around a golf course” genre. The greens are in good shape, fairly fast and multi-level. The best thing about the course is that unlike many of the others in the area that have you either going up or down steep hills in unrealistic scenarios, this course is fairly level with gentle rolling hills. There was a lot of casual water on the course, but we had just had a big storm come through the day before.

Would I play the course again? Definitely, especially if I can get a good price like I did on GolfNow.
